Malaki ang budget ng Mentorque Productions para sa horror film na Mallari na pagbibidahan ni Piolo Pascual. Bagama’t walang ibinigay na specific amount ang producer ng pelikula na si Bryan Dy kung magkano ang production costs sa entire filming ng pelikula ay inamin niyang kahit pagsama-samahin pa ang mga previous films na prinodyus niya noon ay hindi matutumbasan ang laki ng magiging expenses nila sa bagong film project ni Piolo.Si Bryan ang producer ng mga pelikulang Tahan, Fall Guy, at ng very controversial film na My Father, Myselfna pinagbidahan nina Jake Cuenca, Sean de Guzman. at Dimples Romana. Ipinalabas ang pelikula sa Metro Manila Film Festival nitong 2022.Dagdag pa ni Bryan, magiging mas magastos ang pelikula dahil sa tatlong timelines ng kuwento nito na magsisimula noong 1840. Sa production design, costume, at set design na gagamitin at sa post-production ng pelikula kasama na ang mga special effects ay hindi raw talaga biro ang magagastos nila dito.Twenty shooting days naman ang nakalaan para gawin ang pelikula. So far, si Piolo pa lang ang cast na pinangalanan pero any time soon ay iri-reveal na rin ang makakasama niya sa Mallari dahil kumpleto na raw ang cast nito.Ang Mallari ay aspiring entry sa Metro Manila Film Festival 2023. Ididirek ang pelikula ni Derick Cabrido at si Enrico Santos naman ang sumulat ng script nito.<div><a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2023/4/28/piolo-pascual-plays-a-serial-killer-priest-in-the-new-film-mallari-1731">BASAHIN: Piolo Pascual plays a serial killer-priest in the new film ‘Mallari’</a></div>First horror film ni Papa P ang Mallari kaya excited siyang gawin ito. Imagine, sa tagal na niya sa industriya pero ngayon lang siya gagawa ng ganitong genre.“I’m a fan of horror films. I love watching horror. Since na I got stuck with mga romcoms, I had no chance to do any horror film,” ani Piolo sa ginanap na ceremonial contract signing ng Mallari nitong Lunes, June 19, 2023 sa Novotel Hotel sa Quezon City.“But seeing the project, reading it and finding out the truthfulness of the person, the character that I’m going to portray, I was like… sabi ko, this is something really interesting.“When I googled the name Mallari, and it came out as the first documented serial killer in the Philippines, sabi ko, hindi siya… I mean, of course, it’s a fictional film but it’s based on a true story.“And sabi ko, there are a lot of films that had been coming out from different countries. Because of the streaming platforms, we were able to watch them. And I think we should be proud of what we can do as well,” patuloy niyang pahayag.Ayon pa sa Kapamilya heartthrob at ultimate leading man, inihahanda na raw niya ang kanyang sarili sa mga gagawing eksena sa pelikula dahil alam niyang magiging physically and emotionally draining ang mga ito.“So sabi ko, this is going to be really hard for me physically. Exhausting. Emotionally draining. Portraying three roles. But I’m up for the challenge…“And I’m happy to be given this privilege to be acting for this film because it’s quite an interesting story. And an interesting character, too,” pahayag ni Papa P.<div><a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2023/6/9/piolo-pascual-reveals-why-he-isn-t-in-a-relationship-i-don-t-have-time-for-it-1159">BASAHIN: Piolo Pascual reveals why he isn’t in a relationship: ‘I don’t have time for it’</a></div>Nilinaw din agad ng award-winning actor na walang magiging compromise or hindi siya magse-set ng limitasyon sa character na gagampanan niya bilang isang paring serial killer sa Mallari. Kung anuman daw ang ginagawa niya bilang aktor ay labas ito sa personal niyang mga pinaniniwalaan.Katwiran niya, “A role is a role, you don’t have to believe in it, it’s just a story.“I have so much respect for my craft that I don’t tend to compromise because I know that this just a story, it’s just a film, it’s a story to tell, and you don’t leave it out.“Mahirap kasi kapag nag-compromise ka, mako-compromise yung proyekto mo, mako-compromise yung karakter.”<div style="margin:0cm;color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"> </div>
