'Royal Blood' cast finally learns identity of killer, signs NDA

The cast of the hit murder mystery drama "Royal Blood" has been finally informed of the identity of the real culprit in the series!

According to Lhar Santiago's report on "24 Oras," Wednesday, the cast gathered for the script reading of the series' upcoming finale, where they found out who really killed Tirso Cruz's character, Don Gustavo Royales.

Even GMA Network's Senior Vice President Atty. Annette Gozon-Valdes was present in the script reading, saying she was really curious to know who the culprit is.

"Kaya nga talagang I made it a point to fix my schedule na nandito ako kasi gusto ko talagang malaman sino ba talaga ang pumatay kay Gustavo," she said.

Rhian Ramos, who plays Margaret, said people are always asking her who killed Gustavo. 

"Ang tagal din naming hinintay 'tong revelation day na 'to," Lianne Valentin.

But even in the middle of the script reading, the cast couldn't help but still raise suspicions about other characters.

"Sa totoo lang feeling ko hindi lang isa 'yung killer," Mikael said.

Dion Ignacio thinks the same.

"Parang hindi lang isa ang killer eh. Ako nung nabasa ko 'yung week ten, alam ko na eh, hindi ko na lang sasabihin kung sino," he said.

Arthur Solinap said that there's also a possibility that it was his character who did it.

But even though the real killer has been revealed to them, the character's identity will remain a big secret after the cast signed a non-disclosure agreement.

"Kakalimutan 'yung araw na 'to," Aidan Veneracion said about his strategy to keep the secret to himself.

"Ako, itutulog ko na lang," Princess Aliyah said.

"Gusto namin ma-experience talaga nila 'yung joy of discovering kung sino 'yung pumatay up to the very last minute," Dingdong Dantes said.

"Royal Blood" airs weeknights at 8:50 p.m. on GMA. It also airs on GTV at 11:30 p.m. from Monday to Thursday and at 11 p.m. every Friday.

Last month, the cast hilariously pulled a prank on Megan, who was taking a nap on set.
