KIM Chiu and Paulo Avelino
ABS-CBN stars Kim Chiu and Paulo Avelino are set to return to Prime Video in a gripping murder-mystery romance titled “The Alibi,” which will begin streaming on Nov. 7.
After the success of their previous Prime Video series “Linlang,” Kim and Paulo will take on bold new roles that conceal deep, dark secrets.
Kim portrays Stella, a seductive escort and the sole provider for her struggling family. Her already challenging life becomes even more complicated when she unexpectedly encounters Vincent (Paulo), the heir to one of the country's most powerful digital news empires.
Their inappropriate encounter takes a twisted turn when it is revealed that Vincent is the prime suspect in a high-profile murder investigation involving his rival, Walter (Sam Milby). In a desperate attempt to salvage his tarnished reputation, Vincent strikes a million-peso deal with Stella to serve as his alibi.
As the two strangers become embroiled in an unconventional relationship shrouded in mystery, the search for the truth spirals into a dangerous spectacle. Hidden agendas emerge, and each suspect's morals come under scrutiny.
During a one-on-one interview at ABS-CBN on Nov. 5, Kim reacted to her fans' comments that she took a daring approach in the series. In fact, if you watch the series' trailer, you will be surprised by how Kim has grown as an actress.
