Everything seems to be happening for Katrina Halili at this point in her career.
She was just launched as the newest contract artist of OctoArts Films where she inked a two-year deal to star in about five movies, the clincher of which comes in the Gil Portes remake of the Vilma Santos opus "Miss X." Joey Reyes’s "One Night Only" (originally titled "Short Time") is another project she’ll be doing for OctoArts.
And now, nearing the end of the soap opera "Magdusa Ka" on GMA 7 where she plays not the villain, but the topbiller, she goes on to launch the newest drama series "Obra" which will give her a chance to work with prized directors every week for a whole month.
In "Obra," Katrina gets to work under the auspices of directors Joel Lamangan, Maryo J. Delos Reyes, Bibeth Orteza, and Jun Lana. She had just finished two episodes, "Taong Grasa" and "Misteryosa" and she couldn’t wait to finish the other two episodes. "Obra" started airing on Aug. 14.
She says she feels very much privileged to be given this much trust by the network. "Hindi ko nga po akalain na ganito kagandang projects ang ibibigay nila sa akin matapos ko sabihin na ayaw ko na muna magkontrabida after ‘Marimar.’ Nagulat din naman po ako. Pero masayang-masaya po talaga ako," she said.
Not only that, Katrina is also being said to be the lead actress in another GMA series called "Gagambino" which is set to start taping anytime soon, too.
From the looks of it, Katrina is the busiest and most in-demand young actress of her batch today. No wonder she feels exceptionally special even if she didn’t land the grand prize in the reality search "Starstruck" some years back.
