A modern "Pieta" TV series soon on ABS-CBN.


ABS-CBN is all set to give Carlo J. Caparas' "Pieta" a modern appeal by producing a television series with the same title. This classic was a widely followed komiks series more than two decades ago, which eventually led to two blockbuster movie adaptations.
Topbilled by Ryan Agoncillo as the troubled son Rigor and Cherie Gil as the loving mother Amanda, "Pieta" will soon air on the Kapamilya station’s afternoon block.

The TV series will explain further a man was changed by unfortunate events. Will the love of a mother be enough to change her son's ways?

The first "Pieta" film earned five major trophies in the Film Academy of the Philippines Awards and established its lead star Ace Vergel as the country's original "bad boy."
