The Nora Aunor-starrer, Hototay, has been pulled out from the 37th Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) happening this December 2011.
Regal matriarch Lily Monteverde made the announcement yesterday at the Imperial Palace Suites. She said they will not be able to make it in time for the deadline due to Ate Guy's taping schedules and health issues. She is still taping for the TV5 mini-series Sa Ngalan ng Ina where she is the lead. Then last October 4, the superstar was rushed to the hospital where she was diagnosed with a case of bronchitis.
They wouldn't be able to pressure the actress with tight shooting schedules because that would mean sacrificing her health.
Regal Entertainment now aims to start Hototay production in 2012. But would that mean Nora Aunor will have some idle time in her hands after taping for Sa Ngalan ng Ina is over?
German Moreno, the superstar's business manager, said she might go back to the US and return in time for the Hototay shooting.
Another Regal Entertainment movie, this time a co-production with RP Productions, has also been pulled out. Mr. Wong, which is topbilled by Robin Padilla, will no longer be shown in the MMFF.
Its slot will allegedly be taken over by Manila Kingpin: The Untold Story of Asiong Salonga. It is another action movie which stars Governor ER Ejercito.
