Walang Hanggan (lit. Infinite) is an upcoming Philippine television drama to be aired by ABS-CBN on January 2012 featuring an ensemble cast.[1][2] The series is loosely based on the 1991 Gomez-Zulueta film Hihintayin Kita Sa Langit,[3] a film based on the Emily Brontë novel, Wuthering Heights.

Premise

The series' setting is transposed of meadows and vineyards. The story centers on ill-fated lovers, Marco (Richard Gomez) and Emily (Dawn Zulueta) who, after what seems to be a perfect relationship, are tested by fate to see how strong their love can be. However they fail the challenge and reality intrudes and the lovers part. Years later, as if time repeats itself, two star-crossed lovers, Daniel (Coco Martin) and Katarina (Julia Montes) meet, developing an undying love, but the question arises, will their love remain strong or will they end up like Marco and Emily, separated by the violent surge of lust, passion, remorse, and retribution?

Production

ABS-CBN continues its tradition of welcoming the year with the network's most highly-anticipated series. Walang Hanggan features yet another ensemble cast lead by Coco Martin. It is also the second series that revolves around characters from three different generations after the successful and top-rated 2011 military drama, Minsan Lang Kita Iibigin which was written by the same creative manager, Reggie Amigo. The series marks the return of Richard Gomez and Susan Roces to the ABS-CBN network.[4][5][6] It is also Gomez's reunion project with his previous on-screen partner Dawn Zulueta.[7][8] It is also one of Paulo Avelino's major projects since he transferred to ABS-CBN. [9][10] Early production began in October 2011. The full trailer was released on December 17, 2011 via the drama-anthology Maalaala Mo Kaya.[11]

Aims on Culture

As said by the writers in Walang Hanggan: The Making video, the series aims to boost up tourism in the Philippines through featuring meadows and vineyards in the series. It also aims to strengthen the livelihood of the Filipino people by making bignay, a fruit used for making wines popular.
