Variously known at different stages as either
OTJ or
OJT, Erik Matti's long awaited prison hitman thriller has settled on the full title of
On The Job and with the picture now nearing the end of principal photography a gallery of behind the scenes images has been released. Based on an actual corruption scandal in which prisoners were released on day passes to work as hitmen - yes, I'm serious, this really happened - the picture promises to be a gritty yet stylish action thriller more in line with what we typically expect from Hong Kong fare than anything produced in the Philippines in recent years.
There's no word yet on when a trailer will be released to the public - believe me, it'll be worth waiting for a bit - but check out the gallery of behind the scenes shots below for a taste of the scale and style of the film. Remember that you can click on any images to enlarge.
Piolo Pascual, Gerald Anderson, Joey Marquez, Joel Torre, Angel Aquino, Rayver Cruz and Leo Martinez star. You can also check out the original proof of concept promo for the film below.
