Kapuso actor Wendell Ramos airs side on issue with veteran director Erik Matti
WENDELL RAMOS – The Kapuso actor has finally broken his silence over his issue with the veteran director, Erik Matti.
It was just recently when the director revealed in an interview with Ogie Diaz via the latter’s YouTube channel that there’s an actor he doesn’t want to work with again after suddenly leaving in the middle of the shooting of On The Job: The Missing 8.
Matti did not mention the name of the actor, but obviously, he’s referring to Wendell Ramos- who left the movie-turned-HBO Go mini-series.
According to Matti, the said actor left while shooting a big scene because he needs to go to the lock-in taping of his soap.
Finally, Wendell Ramos has aired his side on the issue.
The Kapuso actor claimed during the virtual mediacon of Prima Donnas that his handler informed the production of OTJ about his departure for the taping of his soap.
PPL Entertainment Inc. is a talent management company that handles Wendell.
Wendell said he didn’t want to make a fuss out of it.
“Siguro po, dun sa side po nina Direk Erik Matti na baka hindi lang po sila na-heads up, which is siguro nagkataon lang na… wala naman po sigurong intentions na ano… it’s just that hindi lang po siguro nagkaroon ng communication sa production. Yun lang po yun,” he said.
Meanwhile, the Book Two of Prima Donnas this coming January 17 on GMA-7.
Ramos started his showbiz career in 1995 when he joined the cast of Bubble Gang along with his long-time best friend Antonio Aquitania.
He got into “matinee idol” status when he joined Click and starred in different films during the 2000s alongside Ara Mina and Diana Zubiri, among others.
