Produced by Scenema Concept International (released through Viva Films ) and under the direction of Tikoy Aguiluz, “Manila Kingpin” stars Jeorge “E.R.” Estregan in the title role, with Carla Abellana and Phillip Salvador.
The MMFF action movie is based on the story of the notorious gang leader in Tondo named Nicasio “Asiong” Salonga, whose true-to-life accounts had been portrayed in several movie versions since 1961 (starring Joseph Estrada).

Other cast-members include Baron Geisler, Yul Servo, Dennis Padilla, Ketchup Eusebio, Ping Medina, Amay Bisaya, Gerard Ejercito, and Jerico Ejercito.
