Romnick Sarmenta

At the early age of four, Sarmenta began his acting career by portraying Peping, the young kid, in the enduring drama series and groundbreaking telenovela Gulong ng Palad (1977–1983). For this role, he received a nomination for Best Child Actor at the 1978 FAMAS Awards.

He debuted as one of the performers on the variety show That's Entertainment, presented by the late Master Showman German "Kuya Germs" Moreno, just three years after his first TV employment. His debut acting role was in the movie Pinagbuklod ng Pag-ibig, which also starred Nora Aunor, Vilma Santos, Tirso Cruz III, and Romeo Velasquez.

He was also chosen to play Ding, Darna's steadfast sidekick, in Rio Locsin's 1979 Darna movie.[1]

Sarmenta was coupled with a variety of leading ladies throughout the height of his career, including Jennifer Sevilla, Sheryl Cruz, and Harlene Bautista. But his loveteam with Sheryl Cruz resonated the most among fans and viewers. Puso sa Puso (1988), Langit at Lupa (1988), and Pardina at ang mga Duwende (1989) were three of their projects together.

With the help of violent fist and gun battles and demanding stunts in the movies, Romnick became a well-known action star. In addition, he acted in historical dramas such as Tirad Pass: The Story of Gen. Gregorio del Pilar (1997), in which he played the lead role, and Damong Ligaw (1997), a movie version of Ceres Alabado's novel KangKong 1896, in which he played a farm child who became a Kapipunero. In the Gil Portes drama film Miguel/Michelle from 1998, Sarmenta also played a gay character.

In 2022, he played the father of Daniel Padilla's character on 2 Good 2 Be True.[5] He then played another gay character in the film About Us But Not About Us.[6]
