Interesting facts

Meant to Beh is a 2017 Philippine family comedy film directed by Chris Martinez and starring Vic Sotto and Dawn Zulueta.

Production

On August 15, 2017, a story conference was held announcing the movie and Vic Sotto's return to the Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) after skipping it for a year after his movie Enteng Kabisote 10 and the Abangers didn’t make it to last year’s lineup.

In the conference, Sotto said that he definitely missed doing the MMFF and he was glad that they were back. He also agrees with the rules of this year's festival to accommodate everyone regarding the line-up of combining mainstream movies and indie films in the magic 8 movies. For Sotto, the dichotomy is unnecessary because all of them are promoting the Filipino movie industry.

It is also a first for him doing a family movie genre far from his past movies which is concentrated on fantasy and action. Several artists from two rival networks ABS-CBN and GMA Network agreed to be part of the movie.

The film's former title was Love Traps: #FamilyGoals during the announcement of first four movies included in the MMFF 2017. On the day of story conference, it was revealed that the movie title was changed to Meant to Beh. Also with the director from Tony Y. Reyes to be replaced by Chris Martinez.

Principal photography for the film began in August 2017.
