GMA Network finally released a statement on Aljur Abrenica’s petition for the rescission of his contract with the network on July 29, Tuesday. The network said that it is an ‘unfortunate’ incident because they considered the actor as ‘one of their prime artists.’
The following is the full statement of GMA Network:
GMA Network received yesterday the complaint filed by Aljur Abrenica for the rescission of his Management Contract and exclusive Network Agreement. Our lawyers will review this and answer accordingly in court.
The Network considers this incident very unfortunate because GMA has greatly invested on Aljur, who is one of its prime artists.
GMA Artist Center has not been remiss in its duties as his manager, practising a consultative style of management with Aljur. With his best interest in mind, this practice has accorded him every opportunity to personally assess all offers to reach a mutual agreement.
GMA Network has equally given him projects, some of which were lead roles in the Network’s primetime programs.
Aljur is a home-grown GMA talent who was discovered through the reality search, Starstruck, in 2007.
Since then, he has been given numerous projects including Dapat Ka Bang Mahalin?, All My Life, The Last Prince, Machete, Coffee Prince, Prinsesa ng Buhay Ko and Kambal Sirena.
Likewise, GMA Network and GMA Artist Center have arranged major endorsements and corporate partnerships for Aljur.
Aljur went to the Quezon City Hall of Justice to file a Judicial Confirmation of Rescission of Contract against the Kapuso Network with his legal counsel, Atty. Ferdinand Topacio. The actor said he doesn’t want things to end this way, but he had no choice because the network hasn’t been listening to his demand to terminate the contract. He also wants to maintain a good relationship with them because he owes the network a lot. He also cannot forget how GMA Network gave him his big break in showbiz.
Aljur said he has thought of this decision for years, and he wanted to fix the issue before. But with guidance from his parents and other people around him, the actor decided to file a formal complaint against the network.
