MMFF’s statement says: “Section 12 of Rule III of the 2019 MMFF Rules and Regulations provides that in case of disqualification, the vacant slot shallbe automatically filled by the next-in-rank of the same film genre. Per the ranking of the Selection Committee, ‘SUNOD’ is the horror film next-in-rank to the film (K)AMPON.”
‘Sunod’ will be produced by TEN17P and will be directed by Carlo Ledesma.
Kris earlier confirmed that her supposed horror film comeback will not push through because of some conflicts regarding changes in cast members.
Her original leading man Derek Ramsay backed out from the film and was later replaced by Gabby Concepcion. However, the film failed to make it to the deadline of the filing of request for change of its lead actor.
