What happens

The Unmarried Wife is a 2016 Filipino romantic drama film directed by Maryo J. de los Reyes (in his final feature film directing role before his death almost two years later) from a story and screenplay written by Vanessa R. Valdez, based on an original story by Keiko Aquino. Starring Angelica Panganiban, Dingdong Dantes, and Paulo Avelino, the film revolves around a woman who was torn between her husband and her lover. Produced and distributed by ABS-CBN Film Productions, the film was theatrically released in the Philippines on November 16, 2016, with limited screenings in the United States and Canada. It marks the reunion of Panganiban and Dantes (which is his fourth film for the film studio) after their box-office success with One More Try (2012), which co-starred with Angel Locsin and Zanjoe Marudo.
