Will the country’s goddess favor the dark side at the ball?

Piolo Pascual as Zeus

Known for being a wise and commanding figure in Greek mythology, Zeus clearly shares qualities with Piolo Pascual. Just as Zeus held sway for ages, the actor’s charm and acting skills echo that same longevity. His ability to portray a variety of roles highlights his capability to effortlessly take on the multifaceted character of the king of the gods.

Anne Curtis as Maria Makiling

How do we describe the It’s Showtime! host without using the word dyosa? Fantasy has indeed played a big role in Anne’s career in show business, and what better way to relive her past roles than through this ball? Embodying the nurturing and giving attributes of one Maria Makiling, the actress can definitely represent Filipino culture as one of our classic mythological features.

Solenn Heussaff as Persephone

There is something about the Greek figure that resonates with Solenn’s own sultry yet bright side as well. If there is anyone who can carry these attributes of the goddess of spring with her lively personality, it is none other than the artist-host and mom of two herself.

James Reid as Apollo

In Greek mythology, Apollo embodied confidence—a trait shared with James Reid, both on and off-stage. His magnetic stage presence and powerful voice align perfectly with Apollo’s musical and authoritative traits, making it a spot-on choice for the actor for the approaching ball.

Chie Filomeno as a Siren

The actress’ grace lures us to keep our eyes on her her, and it definitely reminds us of how sirens can bring sailors to the ocean. Although Chie’s own allure isn’t deadly, she will surely kill a sea creature ensemble at the ball.

Ruffa Gutierrez as Hera

Being a mother and protector are two roles that Ruffa and Hera have in common. With the actress-beauty queen’s comeback in Can’t Buy Me Love, we are looking forward to how she will bring another character to life for Halloween.
