Darryl Yap postpones 'The Rapists of Pepsi Paloma' premiere

Darryl Yap has postponed the premiere of his controversial film 'The Rapists of Pepsi Paloma' due to failing to meet requirements set by the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB).

Yap announced on Monday, February 3, that the screening originally scheduled for February 5 will not proceed.

The MTRCB refused to review the movie without proof of no pending legal issues related to the film.

Vic Sotto had previously filed a habeas data petition and 19 counts of cyberlibel against Yap over the teaser video, which led to an order for the removal of disputed content but did not prevent the film's release.

Yap emphasized that while challenges persist, his creative spirit remains intact as he navigates these obstacles.
