Gloria Romero is a Filipino actress who has had an extensive career in film and television. She began her career as a background actor in the late 1940s before landing a supporting role in Madame X (1952). She rose to stardom the same year with leading roles in Monghita and Palasig (both in 1952). Having achieved box-office successes in the Philippines and all over Asia,[1] the films she appeared in have grossed over ₱1 billion (equivalent to ₱2.1 billion in 2024), making her one of the highest-grossing Filipino box-office stars of all time.[2][3]

From 1950s to 1960s, Romero achieved great success at the box-office through her starring roles in romantic comedies, films based on comic strips and remakes of pre-war musical films: Cofradia (1953), Pilya (1954), Musikong Bumbong (1954), Dalagang Ilocana, where she won the FAMAS Award for Best Actress, Kurdapya (both in 1954), Despatsodora (1955), Mariposa (1955), Vacacionista (1956), Miss Tilapya (1956), Hongkong Holiday (1957), Sino ang Maysala?, which was the highest grossing film of 1957 in the Philippines,[4] Paru-parong Bukid (1957), Alaalang Banal (1958) and Ikaw Ang Aking Buhay (1959) for which she earned FAMAS Award for Best Actress nominations, Hani-hanimun (1961), Iginuhit ng Tadhana (1965), and Pinagbuklod ng Langit (1969).

She continued playing lead and supporting roles of varying genres in the following years: For You, Mama (1970), Lumuha Pati Mga Anghel, Nardong Putik (both in 1972), Lipad, Darna, Lipad!, Pepeng Agimat (both in 1973), Karugtong ang Kahapon (1975), Sakada (1976), Gaano Kadalas ang Minsan? (1982) and Exploitation (1983). She received critical praise for her performances in Condemned (1984), Saan Nagtatago ang Pag-ibig? (1987), Nagbabagang Luha (1988) and Bilangin ang Bituin sa Langit (1989). In 1987, she ventured television through the sitcom Palibhasa Lalake and simultaneously appeared in a number of film and television productions in the 1990s, such as Familia Zaragoza (1996) and Labs Ko Si Babe (1999).

Romero's career saw a resurgence in the early 2000s with starring roles in the blockbusters Tanging Yaman (2000) and Bahay ni Lola (2001). She began appearing more often in a number of television series in the succeeding years and earned recognition for her roles in I Think I'm in Love (2002), Magnifico (2003), Fuchsia (2009), Tarima (2010) and Rainbow's Sunset (2018), where she won Best Actress at the International Film Festival Manhattan and Metro Manila Film Festival.[5] From 2017 to 2020, she presented the fantasy anthology Daig Kayo ng Lola Ko.
