Agimat, Ang Mga Alamat ni Ramon Revilla is finally underway as the cast of Hulihin Si Tiagong Akyat met for a story conference last Saturday, July 11, at the ABS-CBN compound. Lead star Gerald Anderson was very happy to finally learn who his two leading ladies were going to be, but the public has to wait until the series debut to learn who they are. Other members of the cast include Jason Abalos, Ryan Eigenmann, Jayson Gainza, Danilo Barrios, Joseph Bitangcol, Carlo Guevara, Arron Villaflor, Jason Abalos, Nova Villa, and Daniel Fernando.

After the story conference, Gerald went to an immersion for his role together with his co-stars Arron and Carlo. ABS-CBN.com got the first glimpse of Gerald undergoing Parcour or the art of movement, which requires him to move effortlessly from one place to another. Part of the exercise was to climb walls and jump through barricades like a real stunt man. Gerald managed to quickly learn this martial art, thanks to the training he did for Tayong Dalawa.

The pressure is on for Gerald as the movie Hulihin si Tiagong Akyat was not just a box office hit, but it also won for Ramon Sr. a FAMAS Best Actor Award in 1973. But with the praise he has been earning for playing David Garcia Jr. in Tayong Dalawa, many people believe that Gerald can do justice to the role.
