In the caption, Villaflor said he is honored to still be part of the new film under TBA Studios.
Villaflor played Joven Hernando, the only fictional character in the film series, which includes “Heneral Luna” and “Goyo: Ang Batang Heneral.” In "Quezon," Cris Villanueva will portray the older Joven Hernando.
"his is really happening! Coming from Heneral Luna and Goyo, where we witnessed the hardships of war — fighting, marching, and enduring hunger — I am deeply honored to still be part of this new film under @tbastudiosph. I am also extremely excited to work with Joven Hernando once again. Here’s to my new family, Manuel L Quezon," Villaflor wrote.
Under the direction of Jerrold Tarog, "Quezon" marks the continuation of TBA Studios’ cinematic “Bayaniverse” — a series of films based on Philippine history that includes box office hits “Heneral Luna” and “Goyo: Ang Batang Heneral.”
The movie will follow the life Quezon, a Filipino lawyer and soldier who became the President of the Commonwealth of the Philippines from 1935 to 1944. It will highlight Quezon's tumultuous presidential campaign against then-President Emilio Aguinaldo.
