MARA CLARA LEAD STAR, KATHRYN BERNARDO TO PLAY IN WANSAPANATAYM!

Kathryn Bernardo, “Mara Clara” star, casts a spell on “Wansapanataym’s” episode this Saturday.

ABS-CBN’s hit Saturday TV program shares a story about a teenager who’s out to confront typical teenage issues. Under the direction of Erick Salud, the episode revolves around the life of Jenny (Kathryn), a girl who comes from a poor family of magicians. Jenny was only two years old when a fairy granted her family with magical powers. Their special ‘skill’ helped them survive. As Jenny grows up, she starts to confront teenage issues like wanting to be popular and wanting to belong. As she struggles her way through teenage life, Jenny decides to join a talent contest where she can use her magic powers thinking that it will be one way to gain popularity. Though her parents were against her plan of joining, she still pursues. This is where the gap between Jenny and her parents begins to develop.

Kathryn will be sharing the small screen with Renz Fernandez, son of Lorna Tolentino and Rudy Fernandez. Other cast members include Lito Pimentel, Maricar De Mesa, and Perla Bautista.

Meanwhile, “Wansapanataym” retains leadership on its timeslot according to Kantar Media last Saturday (July 2). Earning a national rating of 22.8%, “Wansapanataym” beat GMA 7’s “Andres De Saya” which only got a 14.3% national rating.
