The way audiences consume entertainment is shifting, and iWant is capitalizing on the mobile viewing trend with its vertical drama “Twist of Fate.”
Designed specifically for smartphone screens, this short-form series delivers bite-sized episodes packed with intense emotions, making it ideal for on-the-go streaming.
The format follows the success of previous vertical releases like “The Chambermaid’s Daughter,” which topped iWant charts and garnered millions of views across ABS-CBN platforms.
Premiering today, May 30, the series explores a dark and tangled web of love, betrayal, and revenge. Directed by Andoy Ranay, the plot centers on an illicit affair and a toxic marriage that spirals into a dangerous plot for vengeance when wounded lovers reunite.
The cast features four actors taking on these complex roles. Yen Santos, recognized by audiences for her performances in the drama series “Halik” and the film “A Faraway Land,” plays Ginny, a devoted wife trapped in an abusive relationship. Rafael Rosell, a veteran actor known for his extensive work in shows like “Temptation of Wife” and “Can’t Buy Me Love,” portrays her successful but deceitful husband, Sam.
Angelica Lao, who previously appeared in the suspense series “Dirty Linen,” plays Clarissa, Sam’s seductive colleague and mistress. Rounding out the main cast is Tony Labrusca, widely known for his lead role in the hit series “Hello Stranger.” He plays Donny, Clarissa’s husband and Ginny’s former flame, who joins Ginny as their passion reignites to enact a fiery quest for revenge.

The remaining episodes are available exclusively through premium subscription plans starting at ₱35 per month in the Philippines, $12.99 per month in the U.S., and $4.99 per month for the rest of the world.
