MAVX Productions officially marks a major milestone as it ventures into animation with the big-screen adaptation of “Combatron,” the iconic Pinoy Komiks character created by Berlin Manalaysay.

The project stems from a partnership agreement signed several years ago between Berlin Manalaysay and MAVX Productions CEO Erwin Blanco, aimed at bringing the beloved IP to life through a full-length animated feature film.

First introduced in Filipino komiks, Combatron has long been a recognizable and beloved character among generations of readers. With its transition to animation, MAVX aims to reintroduce the character to a new generation while preserving the heart and humor that made it a fan favorite.

The upcoming film is expected to blend action, comedy, and emotional storytelling—hallmarks of MAVX’s signature style—creating a family-friendly cinematic experience that resonates with both young audiences and longtime fans.

MAVX Productions is currently planning to submit “Combatron” as an official entry to the Metro Manila Film Festival, positioning the film as a major holiday release aimed at families and younger viewers.

Following the success of its Netflix Original film A Journey, starring Kaye Abad, Paolo Contis, and Patrick Garcia, with special participation from Ogie Alcasid, Ogie Diaz, and Jimmy Santos, MAVX continues its mission of creating emotionally resonant and nostalgia-driven stories. A Journey earned strong audience support and reached Netflix’s Top 10 in 27 countries.

With its signature blend of heartfelt storytelling and fresh concepts, MAVX hopes to create a similar connection through Combatron. Backed by the franchise’s loyal fan base, the project is shaping up to be one of the most highly anticipated Filipino animated films currently in development.

While casting and release details have yet to be announced, the film marks an exciting milestone for Philippine animation and celebrates the enduring legacy of one of the country’s most beloved komiks heroes.
