Kapamilya star Kyle Echarri shared how he got into his character, Moises Malonzo, in the upcoming Kapamilya show, Pamilya Sagrado, that will be airing on June 17 on Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Online Live, A2Z, Jeepney TV, and TV5.

`During the blog conference for the star-studded series, Kyle shared how he and his co-stars prepared for their roles, especially as they would be showing stories about fraternities and hazing.

“Mayroon po kaming ex-member ng isang frat na nandoon po sa hazing eksena po namin, Tinuruan din po kami kung ano nangyayari, sino mas mataas, paano sabihin yung mga creed… Nakapagworkshop po kami and pinagbigyan po kami ng Dreamscape ng workshop,” Kyle told the media.

He added, “Kinuwento din po sa amin yung mga nangyayari sa (hazing cases) sa Pilipinas.”

The official trailer shows Kyle’s character, Moises, as a hopeful college student who wants to become an architect to help his family (Shaina Magdayao and Joel Torre) and give them in a better home. As he tries to achieve his goals, he meets Justin (Grae Fernandez), son of the governor (Piolo Pascual), who is also the head of the fraternity group on their campus. Although the two become good friends, Moises finds out something about Justin and his frat that may taint the clean reputation of their family.

In an interview with ABS-CBN News, Kyle shared that his character in the series has been the most challenging one compared to his previous projects.

"Hundred percent po this (is) the most challenging, I think most life-changing for me, kung paano ako nakapag-connect kay Moises, kung paano niya ako tinuruan for the past couple of months, tinuruan kung paano magmahal and manindigan and kung paano magtiwala and it's been a ride. It's been such a journey for me, si Moises, pero sobra po akong nag-e-enjoy," he said.

Meanwhile, Kyle shared how he and his co-stars Grae and Piolo built up a good chemistry that was easily reflected in the trailer.

“It’s been fun po talaga. I’ve been learning a lot from him. We’ve been learning from each other. We’ve been open… May chemistry kami off the bat… I feel like off the bat may communication na po kami,” he shared about working with Grae.

He also complimented Piolo, who has shown them one of the secrets of longevity in the industry.

“One thing about Piolo po kasi ay makikita mo bakit mahal siya ng mga tao… He’s never had this aspect po na mas malaki (siya) sa (aming) dalawa… He never had this aspect na mahangin ang ulo, beteranong aktor. Ako. He looks at everyone the same,” he expressed.

With such a promising storyline and highly-anticipated casting that will unfold very soon, Kyle shared that one thing he wants the viewers of the show to learn from his character.

“Sa napakagulo nating mundo, sa mundo nating medyo puno na ng kasamaan, a lot of sadness, a lot of anger, gusto ko makita nila kay Moises na may hope pa rin sa dulo kahit na inaapi ka ng buong mundo, pakiramdam mo wala ka ng kakampi, kakampi mo pa rin Siya, ang Panginoon. Hindi ka nag-iisa.” he stated.

Kyle went on: “That’s something that Moises is going to teach everyone. The beauty of love, the beauty of loving someone, the beauty of trusting and to show the world na talagang may hope pa rin. Marami ako natutunan kay Moises, kahit napakahirap ng buhay niya, marunong pa rin siya ngumiti, marunong pa rin siya magmahal ng tao at magtiwala and I think that’s something that the world needs to learn.”

Besides Kyle, Piolo, and Grae, the cast also includes Joel Torre, Shaina Magdayao, Mylene Dizon, Aiko Melendez, John Arcilla, Rosanna Roces, and Tirso Cruz III.
