The film was first announced by Estregan through his Facebook page on February 16, 2015, with a poster revealing Pedring Lopez as director alongside the involvement of Scenema Concept International and Viva Films. The announcement, occurring less than a month after Oplan Exodus, generated controversy for its perceived insensitivity toward the recent tragedy; former president Joseph Estrada, Estregan's uncle, called the project "a waste of money and time" and warned that it would mean "suicide" for the actor's career in film and politics.
After the announcement, the project languished in development hell over the next six years, with Estregan occasionally attempting to revive the film throughout that time. In 2019, Estregan claimed that he was in talks with Netflix for the film's online distribution after a theatrical release. By May 2021, Estregan renewed plans for the film's production, and revealed through Facebook the film's new title, director, and production companies (Brownfont Productions and Jeorge "E.R." Estregan Productions).
