Gillian Vicencio’s dream came true when she starred in the film, “Eerie” along with Bea Alonzo and Charo Santos-Concio She played the role of Erica, a ghost teenager who’s been roaming the campus. Gillian shared, “Nung time na ginagawa po ito talagang hindi ako isinasama sa mga promo’s, guestings at kung ano ano para daw hindi mawala yung element of takot sa pelikula at kaya BAGUHANG ARTISTA din ang kinuha para sa nasabing role”.

She continued to be part in numerous ABS-CBN projects banking on the acting skills she demonstrated in the film. Her first film was then followed up with another horror, “Hellcome Home” along with Dennis Trillo, Alyssa Muhlach, Raymond Bagatsing and Beauty Gonzalez.

She was part of Star Magic Batch 2019 with Belle Mariano, Anthony Jennings, Jeremiah Lisbo, JC Alcantara and Kyle Echarri as her peers. She then joined Rise Artists Studio that’s currently being managed by Mico del Rosario.

In 2020 she felt anxious of what will happen to her career due to pandemic and the decline in her mother studio’s franchise. “Siyempre po natakot ako, kami kasi kakapirma lang naming ng kontrata tapos ganun yung nangyayari that time pero binigyan naman kami ng assurance ng management na hindi nila kami pababayaan. Nandiyan yung mga digital shows naming everyday kung saan nahasa din kami sa hosting at naipapakilala naming ang sarili namin sa ibang mga artist ana aming nakakapanyam sa program ana WE RISE TOGETHER LIVE”.

“Tuloy tuloy din nung time na yun ang mga WORKSHOPS Online para hindi kami matengga at mangalawanag. Actually kung iisipin nga anlaking tulong para sa mga gingawa namin ngayon kasi parang equipped kami sa mga present project na meron ngayon kaya VERY THANKFUL ako/kami” she added.

Playing Alex (the young Angel Locsin) in “FOUR SISTERS BEFORE THE WEDDING” was her biggest break where she shared acting chops with Alexa Ilacad, Charlie Dizon and Belle Mariano. Her versatility as an actress was showcase in the film.

She also starred in the thriller/drama “Kargo” last January 26, 2023 that got featured in Netflix. She also took part in the BL project, “Hello Stranger” where she played Tony Labrusca’s girlfriend and in the hit series “2 Good 2 Be True,” where her chemistry with Yves Flores, known as Red, sparked a fan-favorite pairing named Retox. She expressed gratitude for the unexpected connections and positive impact she has had on viewers at this early stage of her career.

Before 2023 ended, she faced intrigues but chose to focus on work and maintain peace of mind with the support of family and friends. She embraced the reality that speaking or staying silent would elicit opinions, opting to channel her energy towards positive aspects of her career.

This 2024, Gillian is grateful for the opportunities she continues to receive. Her successful theater play “Kumprontasyon” at the PETA Theater in January marked a significant achievement, followed by an endorsement as one of Beautederm’s ambassadors, a renowned brand in the beauty industry.
