Iza Calzado reflects on iconic ‘Encantadia' role
Actress Iza Calzado had a heartfelt throwback moment during her recent visit to GMA Network's headquarters in Quezon City, where she came face-to-face with her original Encantadia costume.
Calzado was at the network for a brand-related event when she noticed the costume display from the 2005 fantasy series.
She played Amihan, one of the original Sang'gres in the iconic show.
'Still a Sang'gre at heart,' she wrote in her Instagram caption, adding: 'I was so happy our interview set-up was right next to our Encantadia costumes. Forever grateful to breathe life to Amihan for the OG version.'
Iza shared the spotlight in the original series with Diana Zubiri, Karylle, and Sunshine Dizon. The four portrayed the elemental warrior sisters and have remained close over the years.
Calzado also named her daughter Deia Amihan.
The franchise continues through the new spin-off series Sang'gre, led by Bianca Umali, Kelvin Miranda, Faith Da Silva, and Angel Guardian.
