Carlo Lacana

Carlo's first immersion in the world of make-believe was at the age of six. Competing with dozens of cute aspiring models, he was able to best them and eventually, was awarded the role in his first TVC (Television Commercial) project for noodles. To date, he has endorsed about 15 various consumer product lines, e.g. food, beverage, candy, telecoms, children's vitamins, etc. In both print and television ads. At 8, he successfully finished his first full-length movie entitled, "Tall As Trees". He played a major role alongside Chin-Chin Gutierrez, Brent David Fraser, and Monsour Del Rosario. The film was produced and directed by Gil Ponce and was premiered last March 2008 at the Metro Cinemas in Seattle, Washington. (To view the trailer, log on to Gil Ponce.) Aside from Maligno where his name is included in the opening credits, Carlo's previous television show appearances include: Captain Barbell as young Teng (GMA). Kamandag (GMA) as the Hostaged Kid, Lastikman as young Ken (ABS-CBN), Carlo says that although Maligno may not be his first television appearance, it is his first series with his name formally introduced to local television viewers. Therefore, he considers it his debut in the world of Philippine showbiz.
