‘Quezon' biopic wraps up filming
Jerrold Tarog's upcoming biopic 'Quezon' has now finished filming!
On Instagram, Tarog shared a black and white photo that showed a banner saying ' Viva Quezon y Osmeña,' which translates to 'Long Live Quezon and Osmeña.'
'It's a wrap for 'Quezon,'' he wrote in the caption.
"Quezon" is the third installment of TBA Studios' "Bayaniverse," which is preceded by "Heneral Luna" (2015) and "Goyo: Ang Batang Heneral" (2018).
The film follows the life of Manuel L. Quezon, a Filipino lawyer and soldier who became the President of the Commonwealth of the Philippines from 1935 to 1944.
It stars Jericho Rosales as Quezon, Mon Confiado as General Emilio Aguinaldo, Benjamin Alves as the younger version of Quezon, Karylle as Aurora Quezon and 'Game of Thrones' actor Iain Glen as Leonard Wood, among others.
It also includes Romnick Sarmenta as Sergio Osmeña, the first Vice President of the Philippines; JC Santos as Manuel Roxas, who later became the fifth Philippine president; and Cris Villanueva as the older Joven Hernando, the lone fictional character in the film series.
"Quezon" is set to premiere this 2025.
