Team Incognito has a new contract, and this time, the mission takes them to Terravia, Cerdova—which is actually set in the cinematic streets of Matera, Italy—where its ancient stone cityscape and dramatic alleyways create the perfect playground for high-stakes action and undercover ops.

In the recent episodes, the team, or the 'Kontraks' were all in for their next assignment to capture terrorist leader Timor Escalera (Art Acuna), who has his contacts in Cerdova. From the stunning, sun-soaked island of Isla Azur (shot in El Nido, Palawan), they headed straight into another Escalera stronghold, this time in the dramatic city of Cerdova (filmed in Italy). 

The latest episodes pack a punch as we dive deeper into the main characters' backstories. Greg (Ian Veneracion), the 'Contractor,' presents the team with their next job and offers them a sweet deal. Once they complete all their missions, they’d get reinstated into the military.

And as they consider the offer, their pasts come rushing back, showing us exactly why JB (Richard Gutierrez), Miguel (Baron Geisler), Max (Kaila Estrada), and Tomas (Anthony Jennings) lost their badges and uniforms in the first place and why this redemption means everything to them. While Andres (Daniel Padilla) initially decides to back out of the squad, his personal motives quickly pull him back in. Before we know it, Team Incognito is on a high-stakes European strike.

The visuals of Matera, Italy are a total vibe! That scene where the squad enters the city will make you feel the weight of their mission, with the ancient city walls and stone streets creating an almost surreal backdrop. 

Finally, Maris Racal’s character, Gab Rivera, makes her entrance. Don’t be deceived by the multilingual spy’s honeyed charm because we guarantee she can definitely bring a set of impressive skills to the table. We also love how Maris' striking looks blend seamlessly with the Italian setting. 

The 'Kontraks' were immediately thrown into intense fight scenes when a group of locals messed with Max, who wasted no time teaching the rude guys a bone-breaking lesson, only for Andres and Tomas to come in and back her up. This led to a tense lecture from Greg, with Matera's stunning architecture framing the scene. 

Here are more behind-the-scenes photos of the intense shooting experience the team had in Italy, with the cast and crew pouring in their effort to make sure every moment was as impactful as it looked. 

And let's talk about the cinematography that elevated every action-packed sequence. The aesthetics of Matera is the kind of backdrop that brings the action to life in a way that no studio could replicate.

The stars sure got the best of both worlds pulling off intense action scenes while also getting the chance to explore new places as part of the job.

Props to the Filipino team and the foreign film crew coming together to create these jaw-dropping episodes. 

Join the 'Kontraks' in their high-stakes mission in "Incognito," weeknights, on Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Online Live, TV5, and A2Z.
