T-Rex Entertainment has just launched the official poster of its new offering—the musical dramedy “Deadma Walking” which has been submitted for the 2017 Metro Manila Film Festival.

“Deadma Walking” won the 2nd Prize in the Screenplay division of the 2016 Carlos Palanca Memorial Awards for Literature, the most prestigious literary prize in the Philippines. Past winners in the same category include the blockbuster romance-comedy “That Thing Called Tadhana.”

The story revolves around gay BFFs (best friends for life) John and Mark whose friendship is put to the test when one of them has a terminal illness and asks the other to help him stage his fake death, wake, and funeral as his dying wish. The result is a comedy of “deadly” proportions.

“Deadma Walking” stars Joross Gamboa and Edgar Allan Guzman, with the special participation of Gerald Anderson, Vin Abrenica, and Ms. Eugene Domingo. It is also joined by Candy Pangilinan, Dimples Romana, Ricci Chan, Jojit Lorenzo, Nicco Antonio, Ruby Ruiz, Bing Pimentel, and Bobby Andrews.

Directed by Julius Alfonso, Deadma Walking is under by T-Rex Entertainment with Rex Tiri as executive producer.
