Senator Bong's 2013 MMFF entry, My Super Kap is supposed to feature him with Toni Gonzaga, Ai Ai Delas Alas and Ogie Alcasid.

According to a report by Mario Dumaual on TV Patrol, Senator Bong pulled out out from the list of entries for this year's festival because special effects will be meticulously handled and will need more time, so the production team is unable to meet the deadline set by the organizers.
The conflicting schedules of two of his cast members Toni Gonzaga and Ai-Ai delas Alas was also cited as the cause of the delay of the project. Toni is now shooting for her first ever team up with Piolo Pascual and is also busy with other hosting stints while Ai Ai also has other projects in line, including her movie with Marian Rivera.
There are rumors that there's also a supposed feud about the billing of their names in the poster, the reason the senator decided to cancel the project for next year.
MMDA Chairman Francis Tolentino said that the MMFF 2013 organizing committee is confident that they can find a good replacement for the movie that will also bring happiness to moviegoers come Christmas season.
