<p>MANILA -- Actor Elmo Magalona hopes to portray his father, OPM icon Francis Magalona or Francis M, in a biopic.</p><p>&quot;It&#x27;s a dream role kasi far-fetched, medyo mahirap siya. Pero siguro if I could make a biopic of my dad,&quot; Magalona said in Star Magic&#x27;s Celebrity Conversations.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><iframe height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/r7ZKbdtBQ94?enablejsapi=1" width="560"></iframe></figure><div class="iwantbar">Watch more News on <a href="https://www.iwanttfc.com/#!/browse/Genres/News/tag_id_genres/id_news" target="_blank">iWantTFC</a></div><p>&quot;Reliving or telling the story of his life, that will be like a dream role siguro. Ang ganda nga siguro but for sure it&#x27;s going to take a lot of brainstorming or like take a lot of emotions,&quot; he said.</p><p>Elmo also talked about his career, his goals and the lessons he learned in life. </p><p>&quot;Siguro it&#x27;s also to solidify my name in the industry as myself. I know it sounds very contradictory kasi gusto ko ring gumawa ng biopic portraying my dad and marami akong influence na galing sa kanya. Pero siyempre I want to also prove to everybody that I can also be my own person and I can stand on my own. I am very surprised na you know like people think na I am only here because of my dad. Imbes na I try to react to that kasi mali rin naman talaga &#x27;yon, I just think, I will just prove it, I will just prove it to them na there&#x27;s another reason, there&#x27;s a solid reason why I am here,&quot; he said of his ultimate goal.</p><ul class="op-related-articles">	<li><a href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/12/05/19/hopefully-he-heard-me-elmo-magalona-dedicates-sea-games-performance-to-dad">Hopefully he heard me: Elmo Magalona dedicates SEA Games performance to dad</a></li>	<li><a href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/03/06/09/francis-ms-journey-ends">Francis M&#x27;s journey ends</a></li></ul><p>Magalona was last seen in ABS-CBN&#x27;s hit series &quot;2 Good 2 Be True.&quot;</p>
