Angel Locsin had proven that she is one of the best actresses of her generation by bagging 2 Best actress nominations from 2 award-giving bodies in the Philippines. The Unofficially Yours female lead had the nod of the Philippine Movie Press Club and Entertainment Press Society, Inc for her excellent performance in her Star Cinema film, In The Name of Love.
Angel Locsin might took one Best Actress award from either of the two award-giving bodies. Star Awards for Movies will happen on March 14 while the Golden Screen Awards will take place on March 24. For both awards night, Angel will be vying for actresses that had bring the trophy already but chances are, she may bring home an ENPRESS more than a STAR AWARD trophy.
In any way, Angel's transfer to the Kapamilya network brought forth acting opportunities and ground-breaking projects that led to her blossoming as a real actress. It may be recalled that Angel became the 2nd Filipina to be nominated as Best Actress in the International Emmys for her role as a wolf in Lobo (She-wolf: The Last Sentinel) which was also hailed as Best Telenovela in the 2009 BANFF World Television Festival in Canada.
Angel also continued to have box-office movies which are highly-acclaimed by film critics and movie goers. Her movie, In The Name of Love was also nominated for Best Picture in the above award-giving bodies where Angel was nominated. Her recent movie, Unofficially Yours is currently the no. 1 movie in the Philippines with more than a hundred million peso gross in just 10 days.
This year, we can expect a lot more of Angel in terms of movies and TV. She may not have projects after projects but the quality of her work and the level of the material is much more to compensate for this .
