Aside from Darna, it looks like we won't be seeing the new Pedro Penduko movie adaptation soon because of James Reid's withdrawal for playing Pedro Penduko. According to a statement released by Viva Films, the actor cannot play the role due to his present medical conditions.
"James has spinal injuries and the film Pedro Penduko involves intensive training and major stunts. His regular therapy and treatment prohibits him to train hard or perform for the rigid requirements."
Pedro Penduko, first created by Francisco V. Coching a National Artist for Visual Arts, first appeared in Liwayway Magazine in 1954. Since then, it has been adopted numerous times into the big screen and television shows. Viva Films is set to make another movie adaptation of this story using the modern and re-imagined version written by Regene Estolatan under Epik Studios. James Reid was announced to play the famous komiks character last August 2017 during History Con 2017 at the World Trade Center, Pasay City.
