Zanjoe Marudo

Zanjoe Marudo has proven himself as an actor in ABS-CBN’s newest primetime soap, The Wedding. This was what the show’s directors Mae Cruz and Jeffrey Jeturian said about the actor-model. “Si Zanjoe marunong na umarte.” “Unang-una po nagpapasalamat po ako at masaya po ako na napupuri po ako ng mga director namin, kasi dati hindi.” Zanjoe jokingly said. “Kasi pag napuri ka ni Mae Cruz at ni Jeffrey Jeturian, it means a lot.”

According to Zanjoe, his co-stars Anne Curtis and Derek Ramsay are the reason for his improved acting skills. “Kung napupuri man ako, hindi lang naman din dahil sa akin yon, dahil din sa mga kasama ko kasi magagaling sila, tinutulungan nila ako, tsaka masaya talaga kami magkakatrabaho,” he added.

Moreover, Zanjoe always feels inspired to work with a leading lady like Anne. “Gusto ko lagi mabigyan ng pagkakataon na si Anne ang makatrabaho ko kasi napakabait, susuportahan ka, magaling, maganda, sexy pa. Basta pagdating sa leading lady lagi number one si Anne.”

In The Wedding, Zanjoe plays Marlon Manalac, a worker in Candice’s (Anne) family’s construction firm. Marlon gets trapped in Candice’s plans and will eventually fall for her. “Light lang yung story pero may kirot sa puso. Nakakarelate ako sa role ko, kay Marlon, kasi pinagsisikapan niya lahat ng gusto niya marating sa buhay, galing siya sa hirap, at tunay magmahal, just like me.”
