MANILA, Philippines?An issue concerning the billing of the movie ?One True Love? that displeased the camp of one of its lead stars is being threshed out, according to the top executive of the film?s producer GMA Films.

Annette Gozon-Abrograr, GMA Films president, said producers have met with the film?s top stars?Marian Rivera, Dingdong Dantes, and Iza Calzado?to settle differences over the billing, which they explained was a response to the request of fans.

?We already spoke with the stars. They know na silang tatlo talaga ang stars ng movie [All three of them know they are the stars of the movie],? Abrogar said. ?The audience requested that we highlight Dingdong (Dantes) and Marian?s (Rivera) love team. Doon kami nagkaproblema [That?s where we had a problem].?

Calzado?s father, Lito, expressed dismay that the name of his daughter was relegated below the names of Rivera and Dantes in the movie billing.

?We can?t just ignore Iza?s participation in the film,? Abrogar said. ?Her character is integral to the story.?

Abrogar stressed that GMA Films proceeded with the current billing since it got the approval of all the lead stars, including Calzado.

?In the end, we opted to have Dingdong and Marian?s name in a single line and Iza?s in another. Okay naman sa kanila ?yun [That was okay with them],? Abrogar said.
