About Partners in Crime Movie:

Partners in Crime is a Philippine action-adventure comedy film starring Vice Ganda and Ivana Alawi. The film is directed by Cathy Garcia-Molina and is under the production of Star Cinema and Viva Films.

ABS-CBN Film Productions in 2020, announced their planned line-up of films for 2020–21 which includes a film that would star Vice Ganda and Ivana Alawi.

The film was planned to be the third installment of the Praybeyt Benjamin film franchise by Wenn V. Deramas. Cathy Garcia-Molina was offered to direct the film with the working title Super Praybeyt Benjamin since Deramas is already deceased. However, such a film project did not push through.

Another film featuring the tandem would be worked on instead. On July 8, 2022, the Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) Executive Committee announced the first four official entries for the 2022 Metro Manila Film Festival which includes Vice Ganda and Ivana Alawi’s Partners in Crime. The entries were entered as script submissions. Molina was tapped to direct the film.

In late August 2022, Vice met with the staff and production team to aid in the artistic creation of the film. The film started the initial production on September 12, 2022, and began filming on September 19, 2022.

On September 9, 2022, a story conference was held by the press together with the lead stars Vice and Alawi and director Molina. During the event, Alawi expressed her excitement to work with Vice, whom she and her mother look up to.

Partners in Crime was one of the official entries for 2022 Metro Manila Film Festival and was released on December 25, 2022.

Partners in Crime has reportedly earned ₱31 million on the first day of the Metro Manila film festival, becoming the top-grossing film among the entries. As per unofficial figures obtained by PEP.ph, the film has grossed over ₱86 million as of December 28, 2022. On January 1, 2023 (New Year’s Day), the film has reportedly earned ₱16 million.

The film has earned a total of ₱168 million at the box-office, becoming the third highest grossing Philippine film of 2022.
