MANILA - The eight entries to the 41st Metro Manila Film Festival have surpassed last year's record box office haul of P1.014 billion, according to organizers.

In an announcement made on Facebook on Friday, the MMFF executive committee said that the entries have collectively made P1.020 billion as of January 7.

The top four earners -- in no particular order -- are still "Beauty and the Bestie," "My Bebe Love," "Haunted Mansion," and "Walang Forever."

According to ABS-CBN News' MJ Felipe, Metropolitan Manila Development Authority chairman Emerson Carlos said that the committee will not reveal the exact box office figures this year.

However, Star Cinema's Roxy Liquigan shared on social media that Vice Ganda's "Beauty and the Bestie" has grossed more than P428 million, and that the film will still be shown in selected cinemas until January 14.
