It has already been a year since Voltes V: Legacy started its production. Director Mark Reyes said you really couldn’t rush a good thing.
On May 27, via Instagram, Reyes shared a photo with Carla Abellana and Gabby Eigenmann in costume as Mary Ann Armstrong and Commander Robinson, respectively.
“@carlaangeline, @gabbyeigenmann, and I are all smiles as we commemorate the 1st Anniversary of #voltesvlegacy in production. We started a year ago. You really can’t rush a good thing. #voltesvlegacy #floopyhairby @svensonphl #svenson360 #svensonthehairlossauthority,” Reyes captioned.

On December 31, 2021, Reyes was thrilled to receive a letter of approval from Toei Company, LTD., for the Philippine adaptation of Voltes V.
“One of the best Christmas gifts I received was this kind letter of support from no less than Voltes V’s home base in Japan, TOEI Company,” he said.
On January 20, Reyes admitted that they are currently at 50% production for the much-anticipated series.
“In terms of our shoot, we are 50% done. And then, in post-production, I don’t know how many percent they’ve done, but they’re doing a lot. Or they’ve done a lot already.
“Even post-production is doing all the CGI graphics, they’re not working from the office, where they have the bigger machines like in Riot or even in GMA. They’re working from home with much less advanced or fast machines or computers. That also slows us down,” Reyes stated.
Voltes V: Legacy’s release date is yet to be announced. But Reyes ensured that it would be part of GMA Network’s line-up of shows for 2022.
