Ysabel Ortega admits she felt challenged by Enchan, fight scenes in 'Sang'gre'
Ysabel Ortega admitted she felt challenged learning Enchan, the fictional language in Encantadia, as well as the fight scenes she had to do in "Encantadia Chronicles: Sang'gre." In Aubrey Carampel's report in "24 Oras" Monday, the Sparkle star shared that there were times she would forget the nuances of language when they were shooting scenes for the series. "Sobrang complex pala ng mundo [ng Encantadia], it's literally an alternate universe to the point na first day ko, as in, may mga times na I still forget 'yung mga nuances. May isa akong eksena nasabi ko, 'Tulungan mo ko, please' so syempre nag-cut kami. Sabi nila, 'Ysabel walang please sa Encantadia ha,'" she said. Ysabel also talked about her challenging yet rewarding role as Armea, which required fight scenes. "More on refresher na lang sa sword fighting, kasi sword po 'yung weapon ko dito sa 'Sang'gre,' so of course training din for the scenes that we have," she said. "Nag-t-training talaga kami a day before shooting para talagang ma-master na 'yung mga fight scenes na gagawin namin for the show," she added. Ysabel stars as Armea, the daughter of King Ybrahim (Ruru Madrid) and Queen Alena (Gabbi Garcia) of Sapiro. On last Wednesday's episode, Armea was officially crowned queen of the kingdom following the death of Ybrahim. "Encantadia Chronicles: Sang'gre" airs on GMA Network from Mondays to Fridays at 8 p.m. after "24 Oras." You can also watch it online via the Kapuso Stream on YouTube. —CDC, GMA Integrated News

Julie Anne San Jose talks about singing in Enchan for 'Sang'gre' theme song
Julie Anne San Jose is the voice of the official theme song for "Sang'gre," which came with the challenge of singing in Enchan, the fictional language used in "Encantadia." In Lhar Santiago's report on "24 Oras," Thursday, Julie Anne was asked by Mikee Quintos if she understood the lyrics of the song. "I kinda assumed kung ano 'yung mga meaning. Kasi, ewan ko, nag-depend lang din ako siguro sa dun sa mga stances na Tagalog, so parang the gist of it," she said. "Sang'gre" is the spinoff of the hit Kapuso series "Encantadia." It is top-billed by Bianca Umali, Kelvin Miranda, Faith Da Silva, and Angel Guardian as the new keepers of the gems of fire, water, air, and earth. The series will also feature a new set of characters including Rhian Ramos as Mitena, the late Ricky Davao as Governor Emil, Ysabel Ortega as Armea, and Sienna Stevens as the younger counterpart of Rhian. "Sang'gre" will premiere on GMA Prime on June 16. —Carby Rose Basina/MGP, GMA Integrated News
