While some netizens were happy with Labrusca’s appearance, one curious netizen going by the handle @grj781 asked if he already had a working visa. This comes after the issue of Labrusca’s outburst at an immigration officer, who told the actor that he only has 30 days to stay in the country.

Making sure that the netizen’s query did not fall on deaf ears, Reyes replied, “Yes, he has acquired the work permit. Otherwise, he would not be on the set.”
