Production

Viva originally began developing a local Philippine adaptation of the franchise in 2016 with Cesar Montano as the host and GB Sampedro as the director. Two pilot episodes of the series were filmed to be presented to TV5 management with a planned premiere in June 2016. However, the series was eventually shelved due to budget concerns and to some extent disagreements by the audience and the management.^[3]

On 24 September 2020, TV5 hinted a new show with a poster of a mysterious mask.^[4] This was further confirmed on the same day.^[1] The filming of the show started on October 6, 2020.^[5]
