Amid the ongoing legal tussle over his movie “The Rapists of Pepsi Paloma,” film director Darryl Yap released a new trailer of the movie, saying its premiere in local cinemas will proceed on February 5.

The new trailer was shared on the director’s Facebook page on Tuesday, Jan. 21.

It begins with Rhed Bustamante, who portrays the role of the late sexy actress, walking alone with smudge makeup and speaking in the background about how desperate she is to do anything to earn money.

The trailer release came amid the ongoing hearing on the cyberlibel and habeas data cases filed by Vic Sotto against Yap over the initial trailer that portrayed the veteran TV host as an alleged rapist of the late ’80s sexy star.

Another record session Friday on Wall Street crowned a sixth weekly gain in a row, but failed to carry over into Monday and inspire a similar rally elsewhere.

In turn, Yap’s camp filed a motion for the issuance of a gag order, which was later issued by the court on them and Sotto’s camp.

The filmmaker also filed a motion seeking to consolidate the habeas data civil case and the cyber libel complaint, which is still pending before the prosecutors. This motion was rejected by the court.
