“Chain” mini-series comes to an end
The latest offering of the MNL48 Presents project has culminated as the final part of the horror mini-series “Chain” was unveiled last Thursday, July 16 on YouTube. Viewers were left to contemplate what was described an “open ending” as the fate of the main characters Alex (Team NIV’s Jaydee Villaruel), Jane (Team NIV’s Daryll Matalino), and Tina (Team MII’s Jamie Alberto) went down on the short yet cryptic final episode.
Fans went on social media to thank the performances of the cast and the efforts of the TV Digital Group (TVDG) to push through with the series despite limitations set by the government due to the ongoing community quarantine period. It can be noted that the supposed second release under the MNL48 Presents which is “i-DOL” was scrapped due to government restrictions.
Next in line in the MNL48 Presents project is the romance-themed short film “Bye, Us”, will be starred by Team NIV’s Jemimah Caldejon and Team MII’s Dana Leanne Brual. Further details will be announced soon.
