After announcing she will be part of the remake of the hit telefantaserye “Encantadia,” actress Sunshine Dizon shared she has been preparing for her role on the show by going to the gym, among others.

Sunshine said she is doing strengthening exercises to toughen herself up for fight scenes. Her trainer? None other than the stunt choreographer of Red Ranger.

“Big time ’yung trainer. Siya ’yung si Red Ranger sa Power Rangers, siya ’yung gumagawa ng mga fight scenes. Pinoy siya, pero puro American (shows) ang ginagawa niya,” she said.

Sunshine didn’t divulge exactly what her role on the show is.

“I cannot go into details, basta all the lines were (enchantments). Siyempre, nagkabulol-bulol na ko. May fight scene agad, hindi pa ko nakapag-proper training,” she said.

Sunshine was also part of the original show as Sang’gre Pirena, the guardian of the red gem of fire and mother to Mira. Taking on the role of Pirena in the remake is actress Glaiza de Castro.

“Actually, hindi pa kami nakakapag-usap ni Glaiza. But since si Gabby (Eigenmann) is Glaiza’s best friend, I told Kuya mga inputs, ganyan. Sabi ko naman to let her know that I’m open anytime. Not only to Glaiza but to everyone if they need help, you know, just come to me,” she said.(MNS)
