Kate Valdez Is “Dreamwalker” In Mikey Sutton And Noel Layon Flores Live-Action Series Directed By Mikhael Red

GMA Network talent Kate Valdez has been cast as the titleholder in the upcoming U.K.-Asian live-action TV adaptation from Mikey Sutton and Noel Layon Flores. This is a promnised fulfilled by Sutton who in 2018 told Kate he’d turn her into a comic super-hero.

The news is everywhere. I’ve had to keep this a secret for about eight months. I am overwhelmed with joy. In 2018, I promised Kate I’d turn her into a comic-book superhero and help launch her into a Hollywood star. Mission accomplished. Remember when I used to keep saying “whatever it takes”? This is what I was referring to. I never give up. Ever.

I wrote “Dreamwalker” shortly I suffered a devastating stroke; I was an hour away from dying. I was told I might never use both my hands or walk again. I was in physical therapy for months. I regained both abilities through daily, non-stop work. I never give up. Ever.

And now the dream is real. Kate is Kat. I’ve known Kate for nearly five years now, and her powerful acting in “Unica Hija” tells you that she will rock Dreamwalker. She will be the Next Big Thing I called her in 2018. Kate will be an international superstar. I said that in 2018. I’m saying it now. And the world is listening. She deserves this massive success.
