MATATAGALAN pa bago matapos ang isyu nina Baron Geisler, Ping Medina at Direk Arlyn dela Cruz na kanya-kanyang labas ng statements.

After magsalita ni Baron at humingi ng tawad kina Direk Arlyn at Ping, naglabas naman ng statement ang director bilang reaction sa desisyon ng Professional Artist Managers, Inc. (PAMI) na hindi na papayagan ang talents nila na tumanggap ng pelikula na ididirehe ng director.

Naririto ang statement ni Direk Arlyn:

'It's so bad!' Hanging may dalang bacteria, darating sa 2025 sey ni Rudy Baldwin

“I am confident that other actors will work with me. I thank Karl Medina for taking over the role for Ping Medina. I am very honored to be given the opportunity to work with the both of you.

We finished the reshot of the opening scene lang night. The vision for that scene was achieved.

I also want to thank Ms. Jackielou Blanco, Julio Diaz, Allan Paule, Juan Rodrigo for coming to the set in spite of the sweeping statement made against me, which was made by the way without anyone of them conducting an investigation or at least taking an initiative to ask me or my entire production team who were there that night.

Prior to the traumatic night, scenes with Ms. Elizabeth Oropesa, Janice Jurado, Kristoffer King, Jak Roberto, Chanel La Torre, Kiko Matos, Mengie Cobarrubias, James Ramos, Lehner Mendoza, Neil Carandang, Bobby Tamayo, Jeff Fernandez and Star Orjaleza were finished.

Ms. Elizabeth Oropesa, thank you, thank you for standing up for me. You do not need to do what you did but from the bottom of my heart, thank you.

I would also like to thank a number of talent managers who have assured me they will continue to trust me with their talents, I will not mention their names. Thank you, thank you, as well as to other veteran actors who sent word, they want to work with me in my next projects. I am truly grateful.

I will not grant interviews anymore on this matter.

That was not a storm. A strong wind just passed by.

Bubog is a film that is based on the war on drugs. We are in the middle of that war and it’s far from over.”
