Tony Labrusca to star in BL series

TONY Labrusca is set to star in Black Sheep’s first-ever digital series, the actor announced on Sunday.

Going by a teaser he shared on his Instagram page, the upcoming show from the ABS-CBN Films outfit is inspired by Thailand’s popular “Boys’ Love” (BL) stories. BL is a genre in fictional media that originated in Japan which tackles the romantic relationship between two male characters.

Today, BL is also popular in Thailand, China, South Korea and Taiwan.

“Yeah… I’m just as shocked as you are,” said Tony. 

“Say hello to Black Sheep’s first digital series, coming to you real soon,” he added, as he invited fans to keep their eyes peeled for updates in the coming days. 

His fellow Star Magic artist, Vivoree Esclito, is also featured in the highly anticipated project.(Push)
