The Fil-Am talent steps into the story as Paolo Belleza, a character who will portray someone who owns and operates a turo-turo food stall in Manila.
For those unfamiliar with the term, turo-turo is a Filipino term that loosely translates to “point-point” or “pick-pick,” and refers to a type of food stall where customers can simply point to the dishes they want to order.
Meanwhile, in an Instagram post, the “Kung Fu” actor expressed sadness upon hearing about the passing of “The Cleaning Lady” star Adan Canto.

“My heart goes out to his family and loved ones,” his caption reads. “I unfortunately never had the pleasure of working alongside him, but the professionalism, kindness, fun, and respect I received on this set is undoubtedly a reflection of the character and integrity that he and this cast brought to work every day.”
Tadena concluded the post by stating he’s “honored to be a small part of it.”
In this latest installment, as shared by Deadline, viewers can expect the tension to escalate as the whereabouts of Armen remain shrouded in mystery, while Thony grapples with the task of bringing Fiona back to the US after her deportation to the Philippines.
Alongside Tadena, McLaren will portray Jeremy Dolan, described as “the guy we all wish we knew.”
The third season is scheduled to premiere on Tuesday, March 5 at 8 p.m. ET/PT.
