'Empress of Drama'

Now that she’s being dubbed as the “Empress of Drama”, Schuck admitted that she feels a lot of pressure on her shoulders.

“Challenging. Nape-pressure [ako], super nape-pressure,” Schuck said.

When asked how she manages to deal with the pressure and expectations that come along with her new-found title, she said, “Iniisip ko na lang na wala, wala 'to para hindi siya pumasok sa isip ko.”

“Kasi mawala ako sa wisyo eh, baka bigla na lang kung anu-ano ang maisip ko, like ‘Sikat ako’ or ‘Magaling ako’ or something, kaya sabi ko po wala ‘to. Kung totoo man 'to o hindi, iniisip ko wala ‘yon trabaho lang,” she added.

Schuck will topbill the new ABS-CBN afternoon series “Mundo Man ay Magunaw”.

Joining her are Eula Valdez, Nikki Gil, Ejay Falcon, Sylvia Sanchez, Allan Paule, Pinky Amador, Jason Gainza, Dianne Medina, Alex Castro and Tessie Tomas.

“Mundo Man ay Magunaw” is set to premiere on January 30.

Empress stars in 'Mundo Man Ay Magunaw'

Empress Schuck shared her excitement over her newest television series titled "Mundo Man Ay Magunaw."

Schuck said she will be working with actor Ejay Falcon in the said afternoon series.

The two stars first worked together in the defunct primetime program "Guns and Roses."

"Ito ang isang series na aabangan, na mature na talaga. Normal na teleserye na mabait at mahirap, ang twist doon ay lumalaban. Gusto ko ang role na ito. Matagal ko na itong hinihintay so excited na ako," Schuck said in an interview during a photo shoot for her new series.

The young actress said "Mundo Man Ay Magunaw" is a TV remake of the 1990 hit film of the same title.

"Ako po ay si Sheryl doon. Isang mabait na anak pero palaban siya kasi kung inaapi siya eh lumalaban siya. Though sumali siya sa isang sorority na ang member ay inaapi doon, at ang leader doon ay si Jennifer. Sumali siya doon kasi gusto niyang makita ang daddy niya na nasa ibang bansa at saka may scholarship kapag kasali ka sa sorority kaya tinitiis niya," Schuck said about her character in the series.

Also part of "Mundo Man Ay Magunaw" are stars Nikki Gil, Eula Valdez, Tessie Tomas and Sylvia Sanchez.

Schuck, 18, had her first lead role in defunct afternoon soap "Rosalka."
