Kelvin Miranda

Kelvin Manalili Miranda (born January 8, 1999 in Caloocan, Philippines) is a multi‑talented Filipino actor, model and singer who has quickly risen from modest beginnings to become a recognizable face in contemporary Philippine entertainment. From his early days at Caloocan High School, where he dazzled classmates with singing, dancing, instrumental prowess and poetry, Miranda displayed a restless creative energy that would later define his career, despite his introverted nature that initially made the industry seem daunting. His first on‑screen appearance came in 2016 with an uncredited role in the Star Cinema hit Vince and Kath and James, a modest footstep that opened the door to a string of supporting parts in GMA television dramas such as Kambal, Karibal, Tadhana and Magpakailanman. Parallel to his television work, he built a varied film résumé with independent projects and Regal Entertainment titles like Haunted Forest, The Hopeful Romantic and Walwal, honing his craft across genres. The watershed moment arrived in 2019 when he was cast as Mark Sta. Maria in Netflix’s inaugural Filipino original film Dead Kids, a performance that earned widespread critical praise for its nuanced portrayal of a withdrawn yet intellectually sharp teen. This breakthrough cemented his status as a leading man, leading to his first starring television role in the GTV series The Lost Recipe (2021) opposite Mikee Quintos, and later a high‑profile pairing with Beauty Gonzalez in the popular afternoon drama Stories from the Heart: Loving Miss Bridgette. Throughout his career, Kelvin has remained linked to GMA Artist Center since 2017, and his growing fanbase admires not only his on‑screen versatility but also his dedication to music, where he continues to explore vocal and songwriting avenues. As he enters his third decade, Miranda’s trajectory suggests a continued expansion into diverse roles and artistic ventures, positioning him as one of the most promising talents of his generation.
