Movie Ma Da cuts scene of Meritorious Artist Thanh Loc and Cam Ly, insiders are upset

Producer Nhat Trung apologized to Meritorious Artist Thanh Loc and Cam Ly for cutting many of their valuable scenes in the movie "Ma da" - a horror film that is currently ranked number 1 at the Vietnamese box office, and is still a controversial topic with audiences.

On the evening of August 17, artist Thanh Loc spoke out regarding the controversy over the fact that he and Cam Ly had most of their time cut from Ma da. The male artist clearly showed his refusal to accept the apology from the film crew. At the film premiere on August 14, Meritorious Artist Thanh Loc and singer Cam Ly were both absent.

"I don't regret the effort, I just regret the time wasted. So I don't spend time listening to and receiving late apologies. I'd rather spend that time on other better relationships," artist Thanh Loc shared.

The male artist spoke up after director Nhat Trung posted an article explaining why the movie Ma da cut most of the scenes of Meritorious Artist Thanh Loc and singer Cam Ly. According to the producer's representative, after filming, they cut many lengthy segments to ensure the movie had the appropriate length when released in theaters.

"During post-production, the crew removed many scenes that you and your partner spent a lot of effort to complete. Throughout the filming process, the two artists cooperated and helped the film crew. We will always remember those favors in our hearts. I apologize to you very much," director Nhat Trung shared.

The male director took responsibility and apologized to artists Thanh Loc, Cam Ly and the audience on behalf of the film crew. The crew admitted their mistake for not notifying in writing that Meritorious Artist Thanh Loc and singer Cam Ly had their appearance time cut in Ma da.

Before the scanda.l broke out, the producer introduced Ma da as having special appearances by singer Cam Ly and Meritorious Artist Thanh Loc. The crew spent a lot of effort to get the two artists to agree to participate. Artist Thanh Loc and singer Cam Ly also had their own posters, which were grand and heavily promoted by the media.

At the press conference to launch the film, the crew continued to mention singer Cam Ly. The representative of the production said it was not easy to invite singer Cam Ly and Meritorious Artist Thanh Loc. This person also praised singer Cam Ly for her "emotional, soulful performance that moved the entire film crew".

Meanwhile, artist Thanh Loc shared that he and many actors had a hard time filming in Ca Mau, soaking in the water for many days. At the wrap-up party held in Ho Chi Minh City, the male artist said he did not mind, just tried his best to complete the Ma da project well.

When the film was released, the audience was shocked because Cam Ly only appeared for about 2 minutes. The role of artist Thanh Loc also did not have much screen time. The introduction of the actor in one way and the role in another made the audience angry.

In Nhat Trung's post, instead of stopping at apologizing, the crew called out singer Cam Ly's name to respond to the audience. "In addition to inviting Cam Ly to participate in a role, Cam Ly also performed the theme song of the film. I planned to use images from the MV in the film, so I filmed quite a lot. After that, we cut it down due to editing the final film. I hope the audience understands and waits for singer Cam Ly's MV," Nhat Trung wrote.

Nhat Trung's "firefighting" part continues to anger the audience. "Spending two weeks following the film crew and getting this in return, what a lie to the audience", the audience commented. "Convincing others to act in a film, cutting the role and then going to the firefighting to say they were filming a music video", "How can you do that", the audience commented.
