American-born Filipino actress Liza Soberano has received many accolades for her work in film and television. She began her career as a teenager with a minor role in a 2011 episode of the fantasy anthology series Wansapanataym, followed by a supporting part in the drama series Kung Ako'y Iiwan Mo,[1] for which she was nominated for a Star Award for Best Female New TV Personality. For much of 2013, she played third wheel roles in films—the coming-of-age romantic comedy Must Be... Love and the comedy-drama She's the One.[1][2] Soberano had her breakthrough role in the second season of the drama series Got to Believe (2014). She played the love interest of Daniel Padilla's character, alongside Kathryn Bernardo.[3]
In 2014, Soberano landed her first major role, opposite Enrique Gil, in the romantic drama series Forevermore,[1][4] for which she received the award for Most Promising Female Star at the 2015 Box Office Entertainment Awards. Her profile increased with two roles in commercially successful romantic comedies of 2015 which co-starred Gil.[5] She played an unattractive exchange student in Just the Way You Are,[6][7] and a woman conflicted by her feelings for two men in Everyday I Love You.[8] Her role as an adventurous young aristocrat in the drama series Dolce Amore (2016) garnered Soberano a nomination for the Star Award for Best Drama Actress.[9][1] Critical success followed with her performance of a weblog writer on a job assignment with an ex-boyfriend in Cathy Garcia-Molina's drama My Ex and Whys (2017).[10] It became her highest-grossing release,[11] and earned her the Box Office Entertainment Award for Box Office Queen. That same year, she took on the role of Miss Universe 2015 winner Pia Wurtzbach in a biographical episode of the anthology series Maalaala Mo Kaya.[12]
For her portrayal of a tribal heroine in the epic fantasy series Bagani (2018),[13] Soberano was nominated for a Star Award for Best Drama Actress. She then starred in Antoinette Jadaone's drama Alone/Together,[14] which earned her two wins at the 2020 Box Office Entertainment Awards—Princess of Philippine Movies and Television and Most Popular Loveteam for Movies. Later that year, she starred as a struggling migrant worker in Dubrovnik in the romantic drama series Make It with You (2020).[15] She also voiced the titular protagonist in the Netflix animated series Trese (2021), about a detective who deals with crimes of supernatural origin.[16] In 2024, Soberano made her Hollywood debut in Zelda Williams's comedy horror film Lisa Frankenstein.[17]
