So apparently, the Mexican telenovela Marimar is being remade by GMA 7 after airing it first with then-unknown Marian Rivera years ago.
The chismis is that Megan Young is set to star in the remake, after signing an exclusive one-year contract with the network.
We haven’t really heard of anyone else trying out for the role but it looks as if auditions and talks had already started.
For example, when Melba R. Llanera of Pep.ph asked Max Collins if she was open to playing the role or Marimar in case they offer it to her, she replied that while she dreams of doing a Mexican telenovela remake, she is not good enough and she is afraid of the pressure and the expectations.
“Feeling ko may napili na,” she added.
So could it be Megan Young? We guess we’ll find out soon.
Who do you want to star in the Marimar remake?
