“Isang Komedya sa Langit”: Family-Friendly Laughter Hits SM Cinemas on May 28

 

Three priests. One divine mishap. “Isang Komedya sa Langit” is a charming, wholesome motion picture that fuses history and humor, as three priests from 1872 are zapped into the modern world. Think ancient values in a world of mobile phones and taxis. 

As the priests struggle to understand Manila’s events, places, gadgets, and even showbiz, audiences are treated to a comedy that’s not only enjoyable, but deeply meaningful.  The priest's robe is intentionally caricatured to maintain the dreamlike tone of the story and avoid referencing any specific Catholic order, out of respect. Since this is a comedy, the costumes also add to the humor.

Playing the three priests from the past are Jaime Fabregas, EA Guzman and Gene Padilla; and the people who help them in the present are portrayed by Carmin Martin and Aki Blanco. All topnotch performers with a solid background in comedy. Also in the cast is John Medina. 

Jaime Fabregas, a.k.a. Don Facundo Caballero of the top-rating series “Batang Quiapo”, tells viewers that “Isang Komedya sa Langit” is a special comedy. “Masaya ito! Isang adventure! Gusto ko ito kasi out-of-the-ordinary. Kaya hinihikayat ko na panoorin ng mga tao kasi karamihan ng mga pelikula natin ngayon ay ‘boy-meets-girl, girl-meets-boy, they break up… In ‘Isang Komedya sa Langit’, you’re going to see something different.”

So catch this funny, faith-infused adventure when it opens on May 28 at the following cinemas: SM Marikina, SM Aura Premier, SM Seaside Cebu, SM Megamall, SM Grand Central, SM Clark, SM Dasmariñas, SM North EDSA, SM Cebu, SM Southmall, SM Fairview, SM Manila, SM Davao, SM Mall of Asia and Greenhills Theater. 

“Isang Komedya sa Langit” is written by Rossana Hwang, produced by Kapitana Entertainment Media, and directed by Roi Paolo Calilong, and supported by Security Bank and Chooks To Go. Rated PG by the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB). 

Another special thing about the film is its spin-off book entitled The Lost Saints now available at Fully Booked outlets and at Shopee (link: https://s.shopee.ph/7KjUQ2wzGU).

Puregold Channel ‘Si Sol at si Luna’—The Series That Hits Different

Following the breakout digital hits ‘My Plantito’ and ‘Ang Lalaki sa Likod ng Profile’, Puregold Channel has stepped confidently into the realm of cinematic-scale storytelling with its newest offering: ‘Si Sol at Si Luna’. The series was unveiled in a star-studded press conference held on May 16 at the World Trade Center, Pasay City, making a quantum leap in Puregold’s journey as a force in Filipino digital entertainment.

In ‘Si Sol at Si Luna’, Zaijian Jaranilla and Jane Oineza shed their child-star images for roles steeped in emotional complexity and adult vulnerability, a distinct first for both actors. It’s a career-defining turn for Jaranilla, compelling him to deliver his most mature performance yet in his first intimate scene—a bold moment not just for him but for Philippine retailtainment.

However, the series’ real power lies beyond the sensual as it explores grief, longing, and the uncomfortable space between connection and timing. As Sol, a film student seeking creative spark, falls for the older, emotionally scarred Luna, their relationship forces a confrontation with the hard truths of age, loss, and love that doesn’t fit the mold.

For Puregold Senior Marketing Manager Ivy Hayagan-Piedad, the wistful insights depicted in ‘Si Sol at si Luna’ are what make it more than just your garden variety romcom.

“At its core, the series is about love—but not the kind that comes easy,” says Hayagan-Piedad. “It asks: Where do we find love? What do we do with it when it comes at the most unexpected time? Luna’s story is about loving through grief. Sol’s is about loving through transformation. Whether love can survive both—that’s the question the audience will ponder on.”

With ‘Si Sol at Si Luna’, Puregold Channel is staking its claim as a powerhouse content studio—one that blends commercial value with creative boldness. This is where sharp writing meets honest emotion. Where full-length narratives meet bite-sized platforms. And where every Filipino, no matter where they are, can watch themselves reflected in stories worth telling.

Visibly excited at the press conference were the series leads Zaijian Jaranilla and Jane Oineza, as well as supporting members of the star-studded cast, including Joao Constancia, Uzziel Delamide, Vaughn Piczon, Lyle Viray, Jem Manicad, Marnie Lapus, and the breakout star, Atasha Franco.

‘Si Sol at si Luna’ will drop its very first episode on the Puregold Channel on YouTube on May 31, with a new episode set to be released every Saturday thereafter.
