Well, that it so the case with the indie movie titled Extra, an official entry to the 2013 Cinemalaya Independent Film Festival. Marian, Piolo and Richard though will only have cameo appearances in the said film, a Philstar article reported.

Topbilled by Gov. Vilma Santos-Recto, the indie movie will chronicle the life of a movie 'extra' or those that were asked to play minor roles in the background, most of the time without any single dialogue.

Marian and Piolo, according to reports will be playing the lead stars of the "movie within the movie." It is not yet revealed though whether the three will be having scenes together or it will be only one of  them at a time with Vilma in the shoot.

Marian had already shot some scenes with Ate Vi who is very thankful that Marian took time in her busy schedule to have a cameo appearance in the movie.

Piolo Pascual already starred in indie movies in the past and it will be the first time for Marian Rivera and Richard yap to be part of an indie film, though theirs will not be starring roles, unlike what Piolo has done before.

Extra is directed by Jeffrey Jeturian and will be produced by Quantum Films of Atty. Joji Alonso.

The anti-gay remark of Pacquiao was made on his interview with the National Conservative Examiner last weekend saying that he disagree with US President Barrack Obama's stance on same-sex marriage. Manny Pacquiao quoted,
God only expects man and woman to be together and to be legally married, only if they so are in love with each other. It should not be of the same sex so as to adulterate the altar of matrimony, like in the days of Sodom and Gomorrah of Old.
 The examiner report also quoted Leviticus 20:13 which says,
If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They must be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.
Following these statements, Pacquiao's scheduled appearance on Extra was called off, according to LA Weekly. Pacquiao was supposed to be interviewed by Extra host Mario Lopez and both of them even promoted the appearance on Twitter. 

According to Bill Reich, spokesman of The Grove, they were cancelling the event.

“Manny Pacquiao is not coming to the Grove,” he said.

In their Twitter account, it was announced that Pacquiao is not welcome at The Grove.
Pacquiao's adviser, Michael Koncz, spoke to boxing analyst Ronnie Nathanielsz regarding the situation and explained their side of the story.

Ronnie Nathanielsz then relayed Koncz' statement to ABS-CBN news, saying that "Manny was aked about same sex marriages and he quoted a verse from the Bible to drive home a point."

"He did not wish ill will on anybody," Koncz added.

In a report by TV Patrol, Wednesday, May 16, Pacquiao denied that he quoted Leviticus, saying that he has yet to encounter the said bible verse. He also added that he is not homophobic but he does not support same-sex marriage, which he called a sin.

The writer of the examiner article, Granville Ampong confirmed that Pacquiao did not quote the Leviticus verse. It was him who added the said verse to his article to give substance to the topic.

Meanwhile, Mario Lopez' interview with Pacquiao is reported to push through, perhaps in a different venue.
