Known for its success in live-action films that combine absurd comedy, tearjerker elements, and fresh storytelling, MAVX continues to evolve as a studio by exploring new formats and genres. The move into animation signals MAVX’s long-term vision of building a diverse content slate—one that includes not only theatrical releases and global streaming titles, but also IP-driven, family-oriented films with strong franchise potential. “Combatron” represents not just a new project, but a strategic step toward creating Filipino stories that can live across generations and formats.

MAVX Productions announced its first 2026 film, The Lotto Winner, starring Albert Martinez and Kylie Padilla. Filmed in Canberra, Australia, it centers on how sudden fortune affects family relationships and is set to open nationwide on Feb. 18, 2026.

ABS-CBN’s talent arm, Star Magic has teamed up with film studio Mavx Productions for a creative collaboration that will bring three new movies to Philippine audiences this year. The partnership, part of Star Magic’s 30th-anniversary initiatives, features a lineup of films starring top Kapamilya artists and aims to showcase diverse storytelling and fresh cinematic experiences.
