Imelda Papin: The Untold Story (previously titled Loyalista: The Untold Story of Imelda Papin) is a 2023 Filipino biographical film focusing on singer Imelda Papin's stay in Hawaii to join deposed president Ferdinand Marcos and his wife Imelda in their exile after the People Power Revolution. Directed by Gabby Ramos, the film stars Claudine Barretto in the titular role, alongside Jeorge "ER" Ejercito Estregan and Alice Dixson as the Marcoses and Gary Estrada as Bong Carrion.

Cast

Production

Loyalista was first revealed to be in production by singer Imelda Papin on February 5, 2023, during an interview with PEP.ph, with Papin intending to produce the film.[9] Actor E. R. Ejercito and director Gabby Ramos later gave their own announcements through Facebook on February 9, 2023.[11][12] During an interview with vloggers on February 27, Ejercito revealed that Alice Dixson has been cast as Imelda Marcos,[13] which was confirmed by Dixson on March 29.[7] By April 16, the director stated that the film was halfway through production.[3]

A preview for the film was held in October 2023 at the Mowelfund Plaza in Quezon City.[14]

Release

Loyalista premiered at SM Megamall in Cinemas 1, 2 and 3 on November 29, 2023.[4]

In April 2024, producer Imelda Papin revealed that the film has been retitled Imelda Papin: The Untold Story in order to better appeal to her fans worldwide that are not supporters of the Marcos family.[15]
