Rappler Talk: The future of ABS-CBN Entertainment with Laurenti Dyogi
Rappler talks to Star Magic head Laurenti Dyogi about what's in store for the media giant in 2021 and beyond

2020 was when Laurenti Dyogi – perhaps for the first time in his decades-long career in entertainment – was at a loss. TV and movie productions had been paused because of the coronavirus pandemic and then in May 2020, ABS-CBN went off air because Congress did not renew its franchise.

ABS-CBN was later forced to retrench thousands of workers.

A flurry of changes and movements happened. Both on-cam and off-cam talent found work in other networks, even as ABS-CBN figured out how to produce its shows and movies in the middle of a pandemic and even without a franchise.

In this interview, Rappler entertainment editor Bea Cupin talks to Dyogi about the adjustments ABS-CBN has had to make, what’s in store for the network and its talents, and what the Philippine entertainment industry should be doing for 2021 and beyond.
