How to use FF_KUBERNETES_HONOR_ENTRYPOINT?

I have a docker image that has an entry point configured below

ENTRYPOINT ["bash", "-c", "mvn clean verify -DHOSTNAME=${HOSTNAME} DPORT=${PORT} -DUSERNAME=${USERNAME} -DPASSWORD=${PASSWORD}"]

Now, when I’m using this image in my pipeline and setting the FF_KUBERNETES_HONOR_ENTRYPOINT in the pipeline is just hanging the pipeline. Not sure why this is happening. Any help around this would be great.

Pipeline:

stages:
  - build

build_job:
  stage: build
  image: 
    name: myimage:latest  
  variables:
    FF_KUBERNETES_HONOR_ENTRYPOINT: true
  script:
    - echo "Running the job, but letting ENTRYPOINT take precedence."

last lines of log showing the below line and is stuck for ever (until the project timeout is reached)

Executing "step_script" stage of the job script
