Ms. Annette Gozon-Abrogar, President of GMA Films, says Bong Revilla (main photo) is one of the biggest reasons she decided to co-produce Panday. "Isa siyang tunay na Kapuso," she told the press.
She continued, "...mabibilang siya sa mga cultural treasure ng Philippines. We want to be a part of this project, kasi pang matagalan 'yan, e. We want to reintroduce Panday to a new generation...."
Bong Revilla is "99.9 percent" sure of his decision to run for re-election to senate

The film was helmed by Mac Alejandre, and written by RJ Cuevas, a favorite of direk Carlo, who has the last say, said Bong.
"99.9 PERCENT SURE." In the same presscon, Bong happily announced that his movie will most likely be one of the Metro Manila Film Festival entries this year.
It will be recalled that his plan to run for national office come 2010 elections almost got in the way. But eventually, he got the go-signal of the Commission on Elections (Comelec). The Senator asserted, "Walang batas na nagsasabi na bawal na yung ipalabas ang pelikula, wala. Wala sa Konstitusyon natin 'yan, kaya na-realize rin ng Comelec na pupuwede nila ipalabas, 99.9 percent ipapalabas ang Panday."
His other announcement has something to do with his political plans. Is he pursuing his bid for the vice-presidential post?
Bong declared, "99.9 percent hindi tayo tatakbo. Napagnilay-nilayan na natin 'yan, pinag-aralan nating mabuti, consulted friends, even the supporters from the provinces, at higit sa lahat, yung tatay ko [former Senator Ramon Revilla Sr.]. Tumawag sa akin two days ago, sabi niya sa akin, 'Anak, yung usapan natin...' Yun yung time na medyo magulo pa yung utak ko. Sabi ko, 'Daddy, sa tawag mo, yung salita mo, parang salita na ng Diyos 'yan.' So yun, that's final..."
Then he stressed: "I will not run for Vice President, but I will run for Senator again."
