MANILA --  Kapamilya actor Gerald Anderson is the lead star of the upcoming ABS-CBN series "Nobody."

Anderson's latest project about loyalty to duty, country and family was announced by JRB Creative Production on Wednesday, August 28.

In an interview with ABS-CBN News, Anderson said he considers "Nobody" as the best show for his comeback on TV. 

In the series to be directed by Benedict Mique, Anderson portrays a law enforcer. 

"This is the best comeback since two years kasi sa 18 o 19 years ko na (sa industriya), siyempre parang ayaw mo na na gumawa ng show na parang nagawa mo na, 'di ba? Sabi ko nga dati noong ginagawa ko 'yung last show ko kapag tuloy-tuloy ka na nagtatrabaho, feeling mo itong simpleng eksena ay nagawa mo na siya a 100 times na so laging may challenge para bago. So ito very unique, kakaiba itong kuwentong ito. That's going to bring me back sa TV kasi talagang very challenging at ngayon pa lang ay iniisip ko kung paao gawin dahil napaka-challenging but close to my heart kasi nga 'yung character," Anderson said.

The actor also told the entertainment media that his newest project was inspired by real-life events and that he will start training soon.

"This story mai-inspire kayo ... It's very different (character) because dahil sa sitwasyon niya. Like it said  'Nobody.' I think all of us feel na we're nobodoy minsan sa mga buhay natin. We have doubts of ourselves, our situations kung kaya ba natin ito. So alam ko na maraming makaka-relate na ito, sa title pa lang," he added.

Anderson was last seen in the 2022 Primetime Bida series "A Family Affair" with Sam Milby and Ivana Alawi.

Prior to his project announcement with JRB Creative Production, Anderson made headlines after he helped victims of Typhoon Carina in Quezon City. 

Anderson, a Philippine Army reservist, was seen helping volunteers rescue some residents who were stranded by floods. 

It was not the first time that he helped victims during a typhoon.

Asked if he considers himself a hero, Anderson said: "Of course not. Mas maraming mga totoong bayani diyan. And, through this show ikukuwento ko ang kuwento nila. Ikukuwento ko ang mga sitwasyon nila sa buhay. Ikukuwento namin 'yung sitwasyon ng pamilya nila kapag nasa panganib, 'yung mga totoong bayani."

Anderson, who was trained to rescue, was recognized by the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) for his rescue efforts during the Typhoon Carina.
