On March 20, Working Boys 2 cast members Wilbert Ross, Nikko Natividad, and Mikoy Morales addressed whether they had an issue with the promotional poster of their comedy film.
At the media conference for Working Boys 2: Choose Your Papa at Vertis North, Quezon City, press members asked the stars about their reaction to the poster wherein Morales was in the middle of the group.
Ross said he didn’t mind their blockings in the poster, quipping about Natividad’s 2.8 Million Instagram followers.
“Sa akin po wala naman po sa akin kung sino ‘yung gitna, kasi hindi naman po ano sa akin ‘yung sikat ako. Hindi naman po ako ganon. Kay Nikko hindi ko alam, kapag si Nikko pinalalandakan niya ‘yung 2.8M na dapat ganon, pero ako po talagang humble lang ako eh. Kasi work lang naman ‘to.”
Natividad joked that the poster represented who was the most good-looking in the group.
“Ito po kasing poster, papangit na papagwapo, so wala po tayong problema sa gitna, dito po tayo sa una magkakaproblema. So ayun, kung makikita ninyo naman po, papangit na papagwapo.”
Morales revealed that the poster was a candid photo of the cast while waiting for their sequences.
“Hindi ko rin naman napansin. Kasi hindi rin naman sinadya ‘yan eh, kasi ‘yung time na ‘yan.
“Hindi yan photo shoot, kasi noong time na ‘yan may kinukuhaan kaming eksena. Tapos ‘yan lang, marami kami diyan na nakaupo, tapos parang, wala, naghihintay kami kasi nagse-set up. Tapos pinipicturan kami, tapos wala nagpo-pose lang kami. Para sa blocking, oo hindi siya scripted literal na naghihintay lang kami. Tapos may inaayos pa sila, tapos pinicturan nila kami.”
