MANILA - The team behind the film "On The Job: The Missing 8" talked about gangsters and politicians in their new film, which they admitted may have been a dangerous choice.

When asked about their decision to work on a film with a strong political statement, Director Erik Matti said he wanted to work on genre he has never done before, without really intending on making it political. "I just realized now, because Erik likes gangster films and political thrillers, but in the Philippines, the gangsters are the politicians. So that's something that's very unique, right, to the country," Quark Henares of Globe Studios joked.About the possibility of another sequel to the film, Matti said they just decided to finish the film as it is in real life - with a lot of unfinished business.

"In most of my movies I'm a leading man, with clean looks all the time. But in this film, wanted to see me in a look that he's never seen me before in my other projects," he said.
