Mikael Daez has replaced Paulo Avelino as one of the leading men in Regal Film's upcoming film "Temptation Island".
Paulo's role in the film went to Mikael after the former begged off for the role due to health reasons, as what was revealed by his manager Leo Dominguez last Friday.
"Because @mepauloavelino fell ill and is still recuperating, he had no choice but to give up his leading man role in 'temptation island'.:(" Dominguez posted on Twitter.
Paulo was advised by his doctor to rest after he was diagnosed with pneumonia.
Cameras have already started rolling for "Temptation Island" since yesterday in Ilocos now with its new cast member Mikael Daez.
The newbie actor, who will soon play on TV as Marian Rivera's leading man in "Amaya", is playing leading man to Solenn Heussaff in his debut movie.
And guess what's Mikael and Solenn's first scene together? A kissing scene.
