After rejecting the first movie poster about Filipino war hero General Miguel Malvar, his kin claimed the entire clan did not give its permission to come up with a biographical film on him.

In a Facebook post, Gabriel Malvar, who identified himself as the general’s great grandson, said that a family relative “had unilaterally decided that he would enter into an agreement with outside parties to produce the Malvar film without the express consent of the entire clan.”Though the younger Malvar did not name the person, the poster shows it’s going to be produced my JMV Movie International headed by lawyer Jose Malvar Villegas Jr.

He also lamented about Senator Manny Pacquiao’s portrayal as the lead character to play the role of his great grandfather. “To have a film about my Lolo Miguel would be ideal. But a film, although desirable, if not executed well and taints his legacy, would do more harm than good. I prefer not to have a film at all. ”

Villegas said the critics who wanted to twist the choice of the fighting senator as a political ploy do not do justice to the ability of Pacquiao as an actor.
