We reported here in Sassyqarla just recently that Senator Bong Revilla is on a hunt for his next leading lady for his remake of Panday for Metro Manila Film Festival 2009 (Read Article). The remake of Fernando Poe Jr. original epic movie is a planned project of Bong Revilla's Imus Productions in cooperation with GMA Films.
BUT wait said COMELEC! It's because Panday 2009 will not be joining MMFF. Sad to say, The reported hold of the movie is due to COMELEC's strict rules and regulations written in black and white regarding the television and movie exposure of candidates running for any post in 2010 Synchronized National and Local Elections. Senator Bong Revilla JR will top bill the said remake but he will run for a post in 2010. It's not yet clear though if what position but according to some speculations, he will run for the second highest position in the Philippines.
Wow, if Kris Aquino will pursue her JOKE that she will run for VP, it will be Bong Versus Kris on 2010, so showbiz. But wait, the movie will still push through, but the play date was moved to November 2009 to avoid hitting the COMELEC cut off period. So the leading lady hunt is still on.
Ang Panday, bow..
