<p>With so many fans excited for his return to primetime, actor Daniel Padilla has shared how thankful he is to be cast as one of the lead stars in the hit action series <a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/incognito"><em><strong><u>Incognito.</u></strong></em></a> He plays the role of former scout ranger-turned-agent Andres Malvar who makes it his life mission to search for his missing brother Jun.  </p><p>“Siguro natutunan ko kung gaano magmahal ng ganun kalalim sa isang tao katulad ng kapatid ko. Nakita naman natin lahat ng pinagdaanan ni Andres para mahanap niya yung utol niya. At nung nakita na niya, ganun pa yung nangyari di ba? (laughs) Pero still, hindi niya tinalikuran yung kapatid niya. Para sa akin kasi, ganun ang pagmamahal. Ano man yung naging karakter niya o pagkatao niya nung nakita ko siya eh hindi ako nawawalan ng pag-asa na puwede pa magbago. Ganun. Hindi ko kaagad tatalikuran yung mga ganung tao. So siguro, isa yun sa mga natutunan ko. Kasi ang dami kong natutunan talaga. Pero isa yun,” DJ shared during the Incognito: Final Mission finale presscon. </p><div><br/></div><div><br/></div><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-0" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/DLUrXvvy0V6/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A221359.09999999404%2C%22ls%22%3A221231.89999997616%2C%22le%22%3A221234.79999998212%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="746" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-0" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><div><br/></div><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/showbiz/celebrities/2025/2/1/daniel-padilla-returns-to-acting-with-a-vengeance-0859"><strong><u>READ: Daniel Padilla returns to acting with a vengeance: ‘I feel much stronger and open to new adventures!’</u></strong></a></div><div><br/></div><p>Aside from his good working experience with <a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/incognito"><em><u><strong>Incognito</strong></u></em><strong><u> </u></strong></a>director Lester Pimentel, DJ was also noticeably closer to his fellow cast members Ian Veneracion, Richard Gutierrez, Anthony Jennings, Maris Racal, Kaila Estrada, and Baron Geisler. </p><p>“Masayang gawin ito eh. Masaya gawin ito kasama itong mga ito. Kasama si direk, yung buong cast at production, yung staff namin. Masyadong masayang gawin dahil hindi siya naging madali. Kaya mas masarap yung tagumpay sa dulo eh. This cast, sobrang minahal ko itong mga taong ito. Sobra, sobra. Gagawin ko ang lahat para sa mga ito. Lahat. Kahit ano kaya ko gawin basta kasama ko itong mga ‘to,” he added. </p><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/showbiz/celebrities/2025/4/9/daniel-padilla-on-becoming-an-action-star-ang-dami-kong-natututunan-sa-sarili-ko-1042"><strong><u>READ: Daniel Padilla on becoming an action star: ‘Ang dami kong natututunan sa sarili ko’</u></strong></a></div><p>During the presscon, DJ also shared that it was actually his action scene in the very first episode of <a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/incognito"><em><strong><u>Incognito </u></strong></em></a>which he considered was the most memorable for him.</p><p>“Lahat naman the scenes challenging. Siguro ang pinaka memorable siyempre yung pinakauna at yung huli. Yung first fight ko sa tren memorable sa akin yun dahil yun ang unang sabak ko. Si direk talagang pinarusahan agad ako dun (laughs). First fight scene ko tapos ilan yung kalaban ko, sampu na (laughs). Siyempre, ang hirap nung choreo. Nakakapagod din. And yung huli kong fight scene, iba rin yun. So yun ang kailangan nilang abangan,” he shared.</p><p>The Incognito team shot their finale episodes in the former war-torn town of Marawi in Mindanao. </p><div><br/></div><div><br/></div><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-1" src="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DLVBLiLy1Kk/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A1%2C%22os%22%3A221365.39999997616%2C%22ls%22%3A221231.89999997616%2C%22le%22%3A221234.79999998212%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="881" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-1" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><div><br/></div><p>The <a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/incognito"><em><u><strong>Incognito</strong></u></em><strong><u> </u></strong></a>star also shared his appreciation for the loyal fans of the show who have been supportive of them since the start of the series earlier.</p><p>“Gusto ko magpasalamat sa lahat ng tao na sumubaybay sa<em> Incognito </em>mula sa simula hanggang ngayon na magtatapos na ang aming show. Maraming, maraming salamat po sa lahat ng pagmamahal din na ipinaramdam niyo rin sa amin saan man kami pumupunta, saan niyo man kami nadadatnan tuwing nag-shu-shoot kami. Ramdam na ramdam namin ang suporta niyo, hindi lang isa sa amin kundi sa lahat sa show namin mismo. Siyempre yun ang kabayaran ng pagod naming lahat, yung ma-appreciate niyo yung mga ginagawa namin. Nababawi ang mga pagod namin at dun kami lalong ginaganahan na pagandahin pa ang aming munting show,” he said. </p><p>Watch Daniel Padilla as Andres Malvar in the last thrilling episodes of <a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/incognito"><em><strong><u>Incognito</u></strong></em></a><em><strong><u></u></strong>,</em> weeknights at 8:45 p.m. on Kapamilya Channel, A2Z, TV5, TFC, and Kapamilya Online Live (KOL) on ABS-CBN Entertainment’s YouTube channel and Facebook page.
