The trailer of the digital movie "Glorious" has gotten millions of views in just less than 24 hours. The film is set to be streamlined by IWant, an over-the-top content platform that is owned and operated by ABS-CBN. The movie with a May-December affair theme stars hunky and athletic commercial model Tony Labrusca and seasoned actress Angel Aquino. The trailer shows the two lead stars in intimate and passionate scenes that has become viral online.
Tony Labrusca is the son of actor Boom Labrusca and singer Angel Jones. Before he joined showbiz, the young Labrusca appeared in various print and commercials ads including his TVC for McDonald's back in 2016. He later joined the local franchise of "La Banda" called "Pinoy Boyband Superstar" however, he did not make it (well almost...he ranked 6th). Tony was said to be disappointed, but that did not stop him in pursuing his showbiz career. He landed a meaty role in the top rated fantaserye "La Luna Sangre" which pitted him with the country's top young stars Daniel Padilla and Kathryn Bernardo. From then on, Tony established himself as the new "It Boy" and one of the most outstanding newcomers. Tony appeared in two indie film festival entries namely "ML" and "Double Twisting Double Back" for Cinemalaya and Cinema One Original, respectively. Both films are yet to be shown on commercial run. He also dished out his first single called "Tanging Ikaw" released in August.
There are unconfirmed reports that Tony might be Liza Soberano's leading man in the new sequel of "Darna." With the way things going on with his career and with giant network ABS-CBN behind him, surely Tony Labrusca is destined to become the next big star, why not.

Being a millennial, what do you think is the most pressing issue of your generation?
"Good evening, everyone. My answer is our ignoring. We have so many technologies, and we just use social media and only care about ourselves. We should spend our time to think and feel with what's happening with the Earth right now. One small action multiplied by a million people can transform the world."
