Johnny Manahan, known by many in the showbiz  industry as Mr. M, is officially a Kapuso! GMA Network made the announcement online on Tuesday, July 13.

One may recall that Manahan  made the decision to leave ABS-CBN in 2020, following the rejection of it’s franchise renewal.  He then directed the now-defunct musical variety show “Sunday Night Live” and the noontime show “Lunch Out Loud” at TV5.

Kapuso stars welcomed the director and posted heartfelt messages online.

Pokwang uploaded a photo on her Instagram account and stated, “Congratulations Tatay. See you soon.”

Manahan is a prominent director who has been in the industry for 50 years, and was formerly chairman emeritus of talent agency Star Magic at ABS-CBN. 

The starmaker has shaped iconic celebrities such as Bea Alonzo, Piolo Pascual, Kathryn Bernardo, Daniel Padilla, Claudine Barreto, Diether Ocampo, John Lloyd Cruz, and many more.
