Development
Research for the began in 1998, 14 years before the eventual release of the film. According to Ejercito, Mark Meily was chosen as director due to his knowledge of Aguinaldo, experience in large productions, and personal belief in him.[1] His second choice for director, though, was the late director Mario O'Hara. The director of Ejercito's prior film, Manila Kingpin: The Asiong Salonga Story, Tikoy Aguiluz, was not chosen due to a falling out between the two during the editing process of Manila Kingpin.[2] Meily had previously sworn to himself to never make a historical film again, after making the film Baler.[2]
