Robin Padilla withdraws from movie with Maria Ozawa

Robin Padilla will no longer be part of the horror movie "Nilalang" as revealed in the statement released by his manager.

Published on The Philippine Star, the statement says that Robin's decision to withdraw from the 2015 Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) entry was with regards to the pregnancy of his wife Mariel Rodriguez.

After suffering miscarriage last March, Mariel is currently pregnant with their triplets and is in a delicate condition. She is expected to give birth in November in the US.

The actor's withdrawal from the movie project "is due to the fact of needing to attend to his wife."

"Nilalang" would have been his first project with Japanese adult video star Maria Ozawa who visited the Philippines a few months ago and has already expressed her excitement in teaming up with Robin.

Here's the statement released by Vidanes Celebrity Marketing that was published on PhilStar:

This message is to announce to the dear public that Mr. Robin Padilla and my team Vidanes Celebrity Marketing will no longer be part of the movie ‘Nilalang’, which was scheduled to compete in the annual Metro Manila Film Festival in December 2015.

It is with great regret that we have to inform all that due to extenuating personal circumstances, Mr. Robin Padilla has had to make the decision to withdraw from the film. I would like to let you know that this decision making process has been very hard as Mr. Padilla’s reputation shows that he has the highest regards for those he commits to work with. But his withdrawal is due to the fact of needing to attend to his wife Mariel, as she is experiencing a delicate pregnancy. Mariel is currently pregnant with triplets, and also suffered a miscarriage in March of this year.

Due to this, Mr. Padilla feels that he needs to focus and prioritize the wellbeing of his family and has decided to forego his role as Tony in the movie Nilalang.

The decision to withdraw from the film has been very difficult for Mr. Padilla and VCM team. This cancellation has been a collective resolution of Vidanes Celebrity Marketing and Mr. Padilla and Haunted Tower Productions are not at fault in any way. We acknowledge that we hold no claims or rights to this movie whether it is produced or not.

On behalf of Mr. Robin Padilla and Vidanes Celebrity Marketing, we would like to ask to the producers and the public for their understanding and kind consideration.
