Philippines’ actress Yen Santos is back after five years in ABS-CBN’s iWant streaming platform’s new vertical drama, “Twist of Fate”. The series debuts this weekend (30 May).

The new show builds ABS-CBN’s vertical video storytelling ambitions, kicked off in April this year by iWant chart topper, “The Chambermaid’s Daughter”. The debut series is about an overlooked chambermaid whose life changes after a Korean guest hires her as his private translator.

Directed by Andoy Ranay, “Twist of Fate”– billed by ABS-CBN as “steamy” and “sizzling” – also stars Rafael Rosell, Tony Labrusca and Angelica Lao. 

Santos, who made her screen debut in a 2010 version of “Big Brother”, plays Ginny, a devoted wife trapped in a toxic and abusive marriage with her successful husband Sam (Rosell), who is having an affair with his seductive colleague Clarissa (Lao). Broken and betrayed, Ginny reconnects with her former flame, Donny (Labrusca), who also happens to be Clarissa’s husband. As the two wounded lovers reunite, passion reignites, and a dangerous revenge plot begins to unfold.

iWant is offering the first five episodes for free on its dedicated app as well as on its Facebook page and its YouTube channel. Episodes 6-30 are available exclusively in iWant, which costs PHP35 a month in the Philippines, US$12.99 a month in the United States, and US$4.99 a month for the rest of the world.
