Netizens are currently mulling over a photo of a man with the likeness of former politician Ninoy Aquino posted on the Facebook page of Darryl Yap.
Yap, the director behind ‘Maid in Malacañang’, posted the photo which netizens feel has look eerily similar to actors Philip Salvador or Herbert Bautista.
“Ayan na nga pero pls vincentiments, Direk Darryl at Viva.. Plss wag naman si Idol Philip o bistek yung gaganap na Ninoy. Ayoko mastress si Ms. Kris 😣😣😣😣,” said a netizen.
“It’s a very dangerous path to take Direk Darryl Yap but the Filipino people deserves this to shed light on the 4 decade secrets of the Aquino. Historians are trembling right now,” added another.

Darryl said in recent interviews that he has already made an offer to the actor who would play former Senator Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino Jr. in the next film. However, he did not name the actor as of yet.
