Did you know?!Facts and trivia about Kampon (2023)
Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.
- For the planned 2019 version of the film, the leads were Kris Aquino and Derek Ramsay; Ramsay was tied up with a GMA Network television series, so Gabby Concepcion took over as male lead, but production could not be completed in time.
- Kampon was disqualified from the 2019 Metro Manila Film Festival over production issues tied to its casting, and Sunod was named as the replacement entry.
- Producer Joji Alonso said the film took four years to make and used storyboards, a tool more typical of Philippine advertising agencies, which led to up to 36 shots per sequence against an average of six in romance, drama and comedy films.
