ABS-CBN released on Wednesday (Dec. 15) the highly anticipated trailer of its upcoming drama series, “The Broken Marriage Vow,” where Jodi Sta. Maria unleashes the rage of a scorned woman after the discovery of her husband’s affair sends her into a spiral of paranoia and destructive behavior. The series will air in January 2022 on Kapamilya Channel, TV5, A2Z, Kapamilya Online Live, iWantTFC, and TFC.
The three-minute trailer introduces viewers to Dra. Jill Ilustre (Jodi), whose picture of a happy family slowly gets ruined after she finds a strand of blonde hair in her husband David’s (Zanjoe Marudo) scarf.
Jill’s simple hunch quickly turns into a fixation, as she begins to track David’s whereabouts and doubts everyone around them. Jill’s worst nightmare becomes a reality when she gets hold of David’s secret mobile phone, where she discovers a trove of photos that confirm her husband does not only have another woman, who is revealed to be Lexy (Sue Ramirez), but that her friends are in on the affair and are actively keeping it from her.
“Simula sa araw na ‘to, ako ang magsasabi kung kailan, saan, at kung paano ko ito tatapusin (From this day on, I will be the one to decide when, where, and how to end it,” Jill declares menacingly in the clip.
The trailer also gives a sneak peek of some pivotal scenes from the series, including the one where David flatly denies to Jill that he is cheating on her, the one where Lexy finds out from Jill that she is pregnant with David’s child, and the dinner scene where Jill unceremoniously reveals to Lexy’s parents that their daughter is sleeping with David and that Lexy had an abortion.
The three-minute trailer also shows Zaijian Jaranilla in his role as Gio, the son caught in the crossfire of his parents Jill and David’s conflict.
Other co-stars appearing in the trailer are Diane (Jane Oineza), Jill’s patient who is tasked with stalking David; Sandy (Angeli Bayani), Jill’s doctor best friend; Carol and Charlie (Bianca Manalo and Ketchup Eusebio), Jill and David’s neighbors; Nathalia and Alfred (Rachel Alejandro and Art Acuña), Lexy’s parents; Grace (Empress Shuck), David’s secretary; and Marina (Susan Africa), David’s mother.
“The Broken Marriage Vow,” which is directed by Connie Macatuno and Andoy Ranay, is the Philippine adaptation of the global BBC hit series “Doctor Foster.”
The cast also includes Ronnie Lazaro, Joem Bascon, Brent Manalo, Malou Crisologo, Franco Laurel, Sandino Martin, Lao Rodriguez, Jet Gaitan, Jie Anne Armero, Migs Almendras, Avery Clyde, and JB Agustin.
