It is not Independence Day, nor it is Rizal Day but GMA Network paved way for a whole new series that is different from their drama line up this year. As My Destiny of Tom Rodriguez and Carla Abeliana came to a close last week, the new Bayani Serye will now take over the time slot starring Alden Richards as the most notable hero of the Philippine Revolution duiring the Spanish regime, Dr. Jose Rizal in ILUSTRADO.
Some people only know the stories of others tell them, but for the first time in Philippine television history, GMA News and Public Affairs brings one of the nation's heroes to a new light - one that portrays him as human, someone people could understand, and most of all, love once again.
Ilustrado takes a step back and shows the man that embodied the positive qualities that Filipinos aim to be. The series showcases Jose Rizal's journey from his childhood, his colourful travels in Europe, his adventures in love, and most of all - the sacrifices he made for the love of his country.
