Joross Gamboa and Edgar Allan Guzman star in “Deadma Walking,” an entry for 2017 Metro Manila Film Festival. Although not the first choice for the roles, they certainly are the best choice.
Aga Muhlach, Dingdong Dantes and John Lloyd Cruz received offers for the roles of Joross and Edgar but eventually declined due to different reasons. According to Joross, he had a talk with Dingdong.
“Sabi ni Dingdong, excited siya sa akin para sa pelikulang ito. Siyempre alam niya dahil in-offer sa kanya at sana, plano niyang i-co-produced din. Kaya lang sobrang busy niya, kaya nag-thank you ko sa kanya.”
Joross thanked Dingdong because if it weren’t for him, he wouldn’t land such an iconic role.
“Sabi ko, gusto ko ngang magpasalamat sa’yo. Kasi sa sobrang busy mo, sa sobrang dami mong blessing, naambunan naman ako. Natawa siya.”
