After a six-year hiatus from acting, Jericho Rosales is making his much-anticipated return to the big screen with the upcoming Kapamilya series “Lavender Fields.” Known for his remarkable performances in various critically acclaimed projects, Jericho’s comeback has generated significant excitement among fans and the industry.

In an interview with PUSH TV, Jericho opened up about why he said yes to this project and shared intriguing details about his character.

“Lavender Fields” boasts an ensemble of big stars, but it is Jericho’s involvement that has particularly piqued interest. When asked why he chose to say yes to this project, Jericho explained that the timing felt perfect for his return.

"It's a yes year for me and I said, okay, yes to all good things and I feel like I'm a better version of myself from 6 years ago in terms of acting or terms being an artist. I am more accepting and welcoming, you know, I see things differently and I have a different perspective. I know where I want to bring my career, and I know stuff that I want to do, so timing was great because ’ Lavender Fields’ provided a venue for me to play, I just really want to play with this character named Tyrone and or sometimes Arthur.”

This newfound outlook has played a crucial role in his decision to step back into the spotlight. Jericho’s hiatus was marked by a period of self-reflection and personal growth. This time away allowed him to explore different aspects of life outside of acting, giving him the space to develop a deeper understanding of his craft and himself.

The Kapamilya actor, known for his ability to delve into multifaceted characters, portrays a man living a double life, constantly entangled in troubles and mistakes. Far from being a simple story of infidelity, “Lavender Fields” explores the depths of deception and the struggles of maintaining two identities.

Jericho's character is always on the run, hiding from the consequences of his actions, while balancing the precariousness of his secret life. The narrative offers endless possibilities for the character’s development. For Jericho, this project wasn't just about the role; it was about the creative environment. He found himself drawn to a team filled with passion and competitiveness, qualities that he admired and thrived in. Jericho’s approach to this role reflects his desire to enjoy the process of working with a group of people who share his drive and enthusiasm.

“Lavender Fields” promises to be more than just a tale of infidelity. "This show is not just infidelity. Trust me, I promise you, it’s not about infidelity. Because when it was offered to me, it’s a story, I mean, it centers on double life, living a double life, people pretending to be who they’re not,” he shared.
