Philippine studio Viva Communications has acquired the rights to remake Indonesian film “2nd Miracle in Cell No. 7,” marking the first time an Indonesian film will be officially remade for the Philippine market.

The adaptation is set to premiere Dec. 25 as part of the Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF).

The original “Miracle in Cell No. 7” debuted in South Korea in 2013 and became a hit that spawned remakes in several countries, including Indonesia and the Philippines. Indonesia’s Falcon Pictures later went a step further, producing “2nd Miracle in Cell No. 7,” an original sequel continuing the story beyond what the film’s Korean creators had made.
