Vic Sotto is to collaborate with Maja Salvador via a brand new sitcom Open “24/7.”
The veteran comedian is excited about it.
“Hindi lang siya puro patawa kumbaga dapat may laman na na galing sa puso storya na tatalakay makakarelate ang mga tao,” said Vic about the show.
On co-star Maja, he said, “Si Maja, ganda ng personalidad niya. She is very sweet. Tapos nagkasama kami sa ‘Eat Bulaga,’ matagal-tagal din dun so iyong vibes andun na kahit first time ko siya makakasama sa sitcom and Maja as an actress.”
The project is a dream come true for Maja, admitting, “Dream ‘ko talaga na makatrabaho si Bossing ‘di man sa pelikula pero at least sa sitcom.”
Adding fun to the proceedings is Jose Manalo.
He related, “Kapatid ako ni Bossing dito. Ako yung magdadala ng gulo sa buhay niya kung saan iikot din ang istorya. Masaya ako dahil siyempre si Bossing yan. Tatanggi ka pa ba?”
Sofia Pablo and Allen Ansay will also join them on the sitcom.
Vic’s Boss EZ is a reluctant, socially awkward guy who finds himself suddenly in charge of a convenience store started by Jose’s Spark through a bank loan.
Unfortunately, his brother will get into an accident.
As co-borrower, Boss EZ has no option but to take responsibility and deal with all the difficulties of managing the store and his zany Gen-Z crew, among them Maja’s Mikaela, a funny and very “kikay” girl.
Also part of the show: Riel Lomadilla as Bekbek, Anjay Anson as Andoy, Kimson Tan as Kokoy, Abed Green as Fred, and Bruce Roeland as Doe.
Under the helm of JR Reyes and M-Zet Productions, “Open 24/7” starts airing on GMA-7 beginning May 27.
