The Mistress marks the return of the John Lloyd Cruz-Bea Alonzo love team in the big screen. The last movie starring the two actors were released about two years ago. The Mistress is directed by Olivia Lamasan. Released on September 12, 2012, the film was a huge box office with thousands of moviegoers flocking to the cinemas. The film currently stands as one of the top-grossing Filipino films of all time. The plot revolves around a young woman who is the lover of a young bachelor and a married man. As it turned out, the married man is the father of the young bachelor. The woman played by Alonzo, as expected, is torn as to which one of them should she go to.

The other members of the cast are Hilda Koronel, Ronaldo Valdez, Anita Linda, K Brosas, Carmi Martin, Tony Mabesa, Gabe Mercado, Nor Domingo, Clarence Delgado and Minne Aguilar.

The Mistress was filmed in several picturesque locations including the Callao Cave in Penablanca, Cagayan, Tuguegarao City, the Baua Bridge in Gonzaga and at the Anguib Beach which is also in Cagayan.
