Biography |
Juan Carlos Cuenca, better known by his screen name Jake
Cuenca (born December 30, 1987 in San Jose, California,
USA), is a Filipino print and commercial model and a
television and film actor who rose to prominence via his
stint as one of the young stars in the youth-oriented show
Click. He was a contract star of GMA Network but jumped to
ABS-CBN after his contract with GMA Network expired. He is
currently a member of ABS CBN's elite circle of homegrown
talents properly named Star Magic. He was also a student of
PAREF Southridge, a school for boys.
Cuenca grew up in California and was the middle child in a
brood of three. His career in the Philippines began when he
was discovered by a talent scout for Cosmo Modeling Agency
at the age of nine. Soonafter, he made several television
and print commercials including endorsements for Safeguard,
Coke and Globe Telecom.
By the time he was fourteen, Cuenca was taken under the wing
of star makers Neil de Guia and Douglas Quijano. In 2003, he
auditioned for GMA Network’s highly successful youth
program, Click where he was included as one of the cast. His
stint in the show contributed much to his growing
popularity. When the show was defunct, Cuenca began
portraying varied roles and was cast in several television
outings including Hanggang Kailan, Forever In My Heart and
Love to Love.
Alongside his growing television career, Cuenca also
attended workshops with directors Peque Gallaga and Joel
Lamangan where he developed the technique and motivation
needed for television acting, a far cry from the
broad-gestured and exaggerated manner of billing in
commercials.
His career heightened in 2005 when he became part of the
fantasy show Encantadia, playing Dingdong Dantes and
Karylle’s invincible heir, Kahlil. He also appeared in the
ninth season of Love to Love entitled Miss Match where he
was paired with reality show winner and young actress
Jennylyn Mercado.
He starred as one of the wizards in the fantasy-themed
television series Majika. Cuenca, along with fellow male
stars from hailing from successful telefantasya's, was
featured in the second issue of X-ray Magazine where he
sheds off his boy-next door charm for a much more
provocative and mature take on his image.
Jake Cuenca is now in the Kapamilya Network ABS-CBN after
his contract with GMA-7 expired. Jake Cuenca is now featured
in top-rated TV shows in ABS-CBN. In fact, Jake Cuenca is
certified a true Kapamilya when he appeared in the ABS-CBN
2006 Christmas Station ID entitled" Angat ang Ligaya ng
Pasko" & he is a cast of the recently concluded one of the
highest ratings of ABS-CBN soap opera entitled "Sana Maulit
Muli" which garnered 36.1% nationwide ratings with Kim Chiu
& Gerald Anderson which aired last January 8, 2007. Jake was
also in a Lovespell Episode called "Sweet Sixty", starring
Sarah Geronimo, Oyo Boy Sotto, and Roxanne Guinoo. He was
really open with his feelings about Sarah Geronimo, but he
never made a move. Now he is dating Roxanne Guinoo.
He will be seen in an upcoming sitcom with Aga Muhlach,
That's My Doc. He is a mainstay of ASAP '07 and a member of
the group Star Magic's The Coverboys, and Cuenca is paired
