PARCINQ SUPER FRESH 2024

At Parcinq, we’re all about serving the finest eye candy in every issue. For our 4th anniversary, we’re turning up the heat with the brightest heartthrobs from the hit series “Pamilya Sagrado,” front and center on our celebratory covers. 

JEREMIAH LISBO

With his classic supermodel looks, Jeremiah Lisbo has been stealing hearts since his breakout role in “He's Into Her” and the 2021 MMFF hit “Love at First Stream.”

Off-screen, he’s just as charming, with a passion for cooking traditional Filipino dishes like sinigang and adobo for his family. Describing himself as street-smart and loyal—traits he shares with his character in “Pamilya Sagrado”—Jeremiah brings an authenticity to every role he takes on.

LUIS VERA PEREZ

At just 20 years old, Luis Vera Perez made his appearance in ABS-CBN’s first YouTube series, “Zoomers,” where he portrayed the enigmatic “Dino.” Now, in “Pamilya Sagrado,” Luis takes on the role of Gio Angeles, one of the charismatic frat boys.

Showbiz is in his DNA—Luis hails from the legendary Sampaguita Pictures family. And he’s got a few words of wisdom from his big brother Lander, a former matinee idol, who told him to just be himself and enjoy every moment.

DUSTINE MAYORES

Pinoy Big Brother alum Dustine Mayores came an hour early to our calltime during the shoot. He was very sheepish at first, but very charming and confident in front of the camera. 

With perseverance and an unstoppable drive, Dustine has pushed through early career challenges, winning an online star search just a couple of years ago. Known as the “Bida Pamilya Boy ng Marikina,” he’s long dreamed of an acting career and hopes to take on more dramatic roles in the future. With his heart set on the big screen, Dustine’s journey is just getting started.

BEAVER MAGTALAS

Beaver Magtalas calls Palayan City, Nueva Ecija his home. At 18, he’s already starred in a sci-fi series “Genius Kids” and the rom-com "When Magic Hurts".

A self-proclaimed Harry Potter geek and pizza enthusiast, Beaver brings a relatable warmth to his growing fanbase. He looks up to Joshua Garcia, admiring his professionalism and passion—a level of dedication that he aspires to match as he builds his own path in the industry.

EMILIO DAEZ

Emilio Daez first piqued the curiosity of fans when he appeared in his older brother's Mikael's vlogs. Now a content creator himself, you can see him collaborate with his kuya, sister- in- law Megan Young and most recently with Mimiyuuuh in tiktok where he shares his love for food, coffee and traveling.

At 24, Emilio holds a degree in Management Engineering from Ateneo de Manila University and has worked as an investment banker before he pursued acting.

ISAIAH DE LA CRUZ

Isaiah de la Cruz once dreamed of becoming a dentist, but his fear of blood nudged him toward a different path: acting. He first gained attention playing the younger version of Piolo Pascual in the Filipino remake of “Flower of Evil.”

Off-screen, Isaiah enjoys shooting hoops and spending time with his pet husky. For Isaiah, acting is the perfect way to challenge himself, allowing him to step into different lives and continuously grow as an artist.

RIVER JOSEPH

Tall and effortlessly charming, River Joseph made a splash in last year's anniversary issue, earning his "certified fresh" title with style. Originally a commercial model, River’s curiosity about the production process led him to dive deeper into acting, where he discovered a passion for playing layered, dynamic characters.

A huge fan of Hugh Jackman's Wolverine, he dreams of taking on a superhero role—or perhaps even stepping into a prehistoric world on screen, bringing his adventurous spirit to life in thrilling new ways.

SEAN TRISTAN

Film student Sean Tristan has become an internet sensation, capturing the attention of fans with his authentic, video-blogging style—much like his character Ej Zamora in “Pamilya Sagrado.”

His journey into acting began with a short film he created alongside his now-manager, a project that ultimately led to his discovery by Dreamscape. Since then, he’s brought his talents to the screen with roles in “Beach Bros” and “Dirty Linen.”

VALENTINO JAAFAR

Before becoming an actor, Valentino Jaafar was already one of the country's top male models. Towering at 6'2, he started modelling when he was still a teenager and has graced major runways shows and magazines.

The 24-year-old model-actor identifies Scarlett Johanson, Brad Pitt and Piolo Pascual as his favorite actors. Though he’s a self-described homebody and naturally shy, the leap from modeling to acting presented an exciting challenge he felt ready to embrace. Determined to grow, he’s diving into acting with the same dedication that made him a standout on the runway, eager to show audiences new sides of himself.

AUSTIN CABATANA

Austin Cabatana brings intensity to his role as Jethro Morales in “Pamilya Sagrado,” embracing the thrill of playing a “bad boy” character that pushes him to explore new depths as an actor. Inspired by his idol, Ryan Reynolds, he dreams of starring in action films where he can further hone his craft and showcase his versatility.

A member of the Philippine Association of Professional Models (PMAP), Austin also made waves internationally, representing the Philippines in the 2023 Mr. International competition and earning the 1st runner-up finish. 

RENSHI DE GUZMAN

A “Game of Thrones fan” and cat lover, Renshi de Guzman stepped into acting at just 15. Initially, he admits, he wasn’t entirely captured by the craft during his first workshops, but over time, acting grew on him until it became a defining part of his life.

Renshi starred in the BL series “In Between” and brought the character “Rambo” to life in La Vida Lena. Despite his wholesome image and boy-next-door charm, he’s eager to take on more complex roles, from villains to unpredictable anti-heroes.

MIGGS CUADERNO

At just 20, Miggs Cuaderno lights up with a wide grin as he talks about his love for streetwear and his four adorable Pomeranians—Cola, Kimchi, Chili, and Mochi.

Though Miggs is the youngest in the “Pamilya Sagrado” cast, he’s also one of the most seasoned. Having started his acting journey at the tender age of 5 in theater, he’s amassed a list of accolades, including awards from the PMPC Star Awards and FAMAS. 

His talent crossed international borders in 2023 when he took home the Best Actor award at the Cheries-Cheris International Film Festival in France for his powerful role in Quick Changes.
