Pambansang Kamao Manny Pacquiao and Fil-Am wresting champion David Batista will face off, not in a boxing or wresting arena, but in a comedy action movie “Wapakman”.
Pacman is starring in the said comedy movie with Batista, and another internationally renowed Filipino-American, Nicole Scherzinger of Pussycat Dolls.
Batista will play the role of Pacman’s mortal enemy while Nicole Scherzinger, on the other hand, will be Pacman’s leading lady in the movie.
According to Pacman, his character in the movie has a superpower, similar to the characters in the hit comedy movie “Kung Fu Hustle”.
He said, “May superpower ako, tapos may mga anak ako. Marami akong anak in that movie.”
About working with Scherzinger, he said “Masaya at karangalan kong makasama ang isang Fil-am na sikat din.”
Wapakman is being helmed by Topel Lee under Solar Films. It is set to hit theaters in December this year.
