In a privilege speech Wednesday afternoon during the plenary session of the House of Representatives, Vargas said the country missed out on becoming a shooting location for the latest installment of Tom Cruise action franchise, “Mission Impossible.”“According to reports, producers of 'Mission Impossible' took interest in shooting in the Philippines sometime in 2019. This, however, did not push through, and the crew instead went to Thailand to shoot,” Vargas said.
Vargas said the Philippines on the other hand caps rebates for film projects at P10 million or roughly US$206,000. “That’s loose change for foreign filmmakers with multimillion-dollar budgets,” he said. The bill would create Film Philippines Office or FPO to promote the Philippines as a viable filming location for foreign film and television productions. The proposed agency will also establish a one-stop shop to process applications for the incentives, as well as help foreign filmmakers secure the necessary permits to shoot here.
