Angela Tong will play one of the leads in TVB's upcoming Lunar New Year drama for 2014, temporarily titled "Meet The Daughters-In-Law".

As reported on On CC website, while speaking to the media at the series' costume fitting and press conference on 27 September, the 38-year-old actress admitted that she is uncertain if she has enough energy to endure long hours of filming but is ready for the challenge.

The series will also be Angela's first drama since she gave birth to her daughter Alyssa in March this year. The actress revealed, "Filming will begin in early October, so I asked my parents to return to Hong Kong from Canada to take care of Alyssa while I'm working. I have also been surveying children centre, hired a babysitter, and even registered a playgroup course for Alyssa."

She then added with a laugh, "Don't call me a tiger mum though. It's only once a week for half an hour. But I have already found a kindergarten for her, because that is how Hong Kong's education environment. My husband even said that I may have been a bit too extreme!"

Meanwhile, "Meet The Daughters-In-Law" tells the story of two friends, (played by Angela and Joyce) who find themselves becoming rivals when they both make their debut as actresses at the same time and marrying into the same family. The 15-episode drama will also star Nancy Sit, Joyce Tang, Angela Tong, Ngo Ka Nin, Evergreen Mak and Anderson Junior.
