Anton Vinzon’s Dream Comes True with “Kamao”
Anton Vinzon is absolutely ecstatic! His first leading role in the much-anticipated drama series “Kamao” is just around the corner, and the outpouring of support has him over the moon. This exciting journey is not just about acting; it’s a heartfelt tribute to his father, the legendary action star Roi Vinzon.
A Son’s Tribute to His Hero
In a heartfelt chat with GMA News Online, Anton opened up about what “Kamao” means to him. With a mixture of excitement and nerves, he expressed his deepest desire: “Gusto ko talaga siyang maging proud sa pilot. First time ko ‘tong lead show; sana magustuhan niya.” It’s clear that this isn’t just another gig for Anton. It’s a chance to honor the man he admires most.
As they prepare for the premiere, Anton shared that Roi hasn’t seen the pilot episode yet. And oh, how he longs for that moment when they can watch it together. “’Nak, good job.’ Gusto ko marinig sa kanya ‘yun,” he said, his eyes lighting up at the thought. To Anton, his dad is more than just a parent—he’s his superhero and best friend.
Working with Dad: A Mix of Emotions
Imagine stepping onto the set for the very first time, knowing your father is there by your side. Anton described the experience as “pressure from the very first day.” But in his eyes, his dad transformed into a nurturing stage father, always there to support him. “Talagang nandiyan siya para sa ‘kin. Inaalalay niya ‘ko, ganun po talaga. Todo support sa ‘kin.”
While Anton doesn’t exactly receive acting tips from Roi, he learns invaluable lessons about authenticity and respect. “Naging totoo ako sa sarili ko and mas naging matapang ako sa mga binigay niya sa ‘kin,” he reflected, showcasing the growth he’s experienced during this journey.
The Value of Experience
What’s even more amazing is how Roi encourages Anton to claim his own journey. “Sabi niya, ‘Hindi na kita tutulungan. Dapat ‘yung mga taong tumutulong sa ‘yo, ‘yung mga direktor, dapat talaga ma-experience mo lahat.’” This approach has inspired Anton to embrace challenges and develop his skills independently.
With all the love and support pouring in for “Kamao,” Anton feels truly blessed and overwhelmed. “Dream come true,” he said, emotions bubbling to the surface. “’Yung sinabi ko nga kanina, ‘Papa, natupad ko na ‘yung pangarap ko.’”
