Philippine boxing hero Manny 'Pacman' Pacquiao and Filipino-American wresting champion Batista will face off, not in a boxing or wresting arena, but in a comedy action movie "Wapakman".

Pacman is scheduled to begin shooting the comedy movie with Batista, and another internationally renowed Filipino-American hitmaker Nicole Scherzinger of Pussycat Dolls.

Batista will play the role of Pacman's mortal enemy. Scherzinger, on the other hand, will be Pacman's leading lady in the movie.

According to Pacman, his character in the movie has a superpower, similar to the characters in the hit comedy movie "Kung Fu Hustle".

He said, "May superpower ako, tapos may mga anak ako. Marami akong anak in that movie."

About working with Scherzinger, he said "Masaya at karangalan kong makasama ang isang Fil-am na sikat din."

GMA News and Public Affairs gets to know the individuals constituting Manny's group, more popularly known as Team Pacquiao.
