It is truly a dream come true for Mendiola to be the Thalia counterpart for Maria Mercedes. Erich Gonzales was formerly Maria la del Barrio while Carla Abellana was Rosalinda and Marian Rivera was Marimar.
"Pwede ko na sabihin, ang tagal kong itinago ito - ako si Maria Mercedes," Mendiola said in a press conference on Wednesday. "Isa talaga si Maria Mercedes sa dream roles ko kaya excited ako para sa project na ito. Hanggang ngayon ay hindi ako makapaniwala na gagampanan ko ang isang napakaganda at iconic character na talaga namang minahal ng maraming Filipino,"
"Sobra akong surprised kaya noong nalaman ko na ako si Maria Mercedes, naging emosyonal ako. Pangarap kong maging siya. Tapos pinakanta pa sa akin 'yung theme song. Ang saya ko na pinagkakatiwalaan pa din ako ngayon," she added.
Joining her in the upcoming series are Jake Cuenca, Jason Abalos, Vina Morales, Dominic Ochoa, Nadia Montenegro and Vivian Velez. It will be directed by Rechie del Carmen.
