Inigo Pascual set to star in upcoming Fox musical-drama ‘Monarch’
Inigo Pascual joins the lead cast of the upcoming American musical-drama series Monarch.
According to a Deadline article published this Thursday, September 16 (Manila time), the actor will portray Ace Grayson.
Ace, the adopted son of Nicolette “Nicky” Roman (Anna Friel), is an 18-year-old singer who dreams of becoming a country star like his grandfather Albie (Trace Adkins).
Moreover, Pascual confirmed the news in an Instagram post, saying how the “news is out.”
“CRAZIEST BIRTHDAY. Sorry for keeping it so long,”
Other cast members of Monarch include Academy Award winner Susan Sarandon, Albie Roman, and Beth Ditto, among others.
Furthermore, Deadline described the show as a story following the Romans, America’s first country music family.
“The Romans are headed by the insanely talented, but tough as nails Queen of Country Music Dottie Cantrell Roman (Sarandon). Along with her beloved husband, Albie (Adkins), Dottie has created a country music dynasty. But even though the Roman name is synonymous with authenticity, the very foundation of their success is a lie,”
Additionally, they said,
“And when their reign as country royalty is put in jeopardy, heir to the crown Nicolette “Nicky” Roman (Friel) will stop at nothing to protect her family’s legacy, while ensuring her own quest for stardom,”
Pascual’s recent screen credits include the films Boyette: Not A Girl Yet and I’m Ellenya L.
In addition, he makes appearances in the ABS-CBN variety show ASAP Natin ‘To.
Congratulations on landing this role, Inigo! Good luck on the show and continue showcasing your talents!
