Coco Martin is picking up another Fernando Poe Jr. title for remake. Following his starring role in the epic seven-year run of FPJ's Ang Probinsyano from 28 September 2015 to 12 August 2022, Martin will do a TV adaptation of Poe's 1986 movie Batang Quiapo.
The original action-comedy featured Poe as Baldo, a pickpocket who, upon release from prison, returns to his community in Quiapo and meets an aspiring female thief, Maria (Maricel Soriano).
Maria tries to convince Baldo to teach her the tricks of his old trade. But he refuses.
The series will be called FPJ's Ang Batang Quiapo, to be produced by Dreamscape Entertainment and Martin's CCM Film Productions.
Malu Sevilla and Martin will direct.
In the cast are Pen Medina, Cherry Pie Picache, Christopher de Leon, Tommy Abuel, Lito Lapid, Susan Africa, John Estrada, Ping Medina, Mercedes Cabral, Mark Lapid, Ronaldo Martin, Benzon Dalina, and Allan Paule.
