Interesting facts

Angela Markado is a 2015 Filipino revenge action thriller film written and directed by comic book writer Carlo J. Caparas. A remake of the 1980 film of the same name directed by Lino Brocka, it stars Andi Eigenmann as the titular character, alongside Paolo Contis, Felix Roco, Polo Ravales, CJ Caparas, Epy Quizon, Bembol Roco, Marita Zobel and Ana Roces. Produced by Oro de Siete Films, the film was released by Viva Films on December 2, 2015.

Production

Toto Natividad served as a co-director on the film, while actress Ysabelle Peach served as assistant director.

Actress Andi Eigenmann prepared for the titular role by training in mixed martial arts at the Ultimate Fitness gym in Pasig, and admitted that she intentionally avoided watching the original 1980 film directed by Lino Brocka to avoid imitating Hilda Koronel's performance.

The rape scene in the film was toned down in comparison to the 1980 film as the filmmakers intended for an R-13 rating from the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB).
