Amalia Fuentes Resigns From 'Muling Buksan Ang Puso'

Veteran actress Amalia Fuentes will no longer be part of the upcoming ABS-CBN primetime series Muling Buksan Ang Puso, an official statement from ABS-CBN said.

In an official statement released Monday afternoon, it was noted that Amalia Fuentes resigned from the upcoming primetime series which is supposed to be her reunion project with Susan Roces.

"Ms. Amalia Fuentes has resigned as actress for the upcoming teleserye, Muling Buksan ang Puso, due to creative differences with the production team and the challenges and demands of regular taping schedules," ABS-CBN head for corporate communications Bong Osorio said.

According to reports, Amalia Fuentes decided to quit the show after completing her first taping day, which became very difficult for the 72-year-old actress and her resignation cited long hours of work which might not be healthy for her.

Taping for a teleserye, as we all know, is very demanding, especially with time. A regular taping day can take as long as 24 hours. Amalia Fuentes might not be used to that very long hours of taping, which is quite different from shooting a movie then.

According to Bong Osorio, ABS-CBN management has already accepted Amalia Fuentes’ resignation and that her replacement will be announced soon.

Muling Buksan Ang Puso could have revived the rivalry between the two major actresses, which are considered movie queens of the '60s. In the said teleserye, the two will be competing for the love of one man to be played by Dante Rivero. 

Tagged as this year's most ambitious and biggest teleserye, Muling Buksan Ang Puso is directed by Nuel Crisostomo Naval and Manny Palo, featuring an ensemble of actors including Julia Montes, Enrique Gil, Enchong Dee, Dante Rivero, Agot Isidro, Dominic Ochoa, Daniel Fernando, Malou Crisologo, Pooh, and Ms. Cheri Gil.
