Richard Gutierrez’s mom, Annabelle Rama says she won’t renew her son’s contract with Bench due to unfair treatment he got. Annabelle is wondering why her son was not given a grand entrance like what Dingdong Dantes had. She feels that if the audience knew that it was Richard who was about to ramp, they would have been ready and the applause for Richard would have been greater. She also said that due to make-up, a lot of stars were not recognized. She heard people say, “Is that Richard?”
“Richard was supposed to be one of the endorsers of Jag. He should have been Angel’s [Locsin] partner. I asked for Doug’s [Douglas Quijano] permission, but he told me not to give up Bench since it was where Richard started. We are loyal to Bench, but look what they did to my son?” Annabelle exclaimed.
Following Akira and Ghost in the Shell announcements, apparently Cowboy Bebop is in for a live-action adaptation as well. IF Magazine talked with veteran producer Erwin Stoff (via AICN) and discovered that he’s working on making a live-action Cowboy Bebop movie with Fox. Apparently it’s very fresh news: “I’m really excited to be working on it, and it’s in the really early stages. We just signed it the other day.”
If you’re not so familiar with Bebop, it’s an incredibly popular Japanese anime TV series that was first aired back in 1998 and has become a hit in the US, Japan and other countries. I’m a big fan myself since I enjoyed the story and the characters. Though i hated the ending, I’m still definitely excited to see this one come to life as well.
