Production[edit]

Broadcaster Jessica Soho came up for the series’ concept of conflict between humans and crocodile, which was featured in her show Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho.[8]Lolong is named after a crocodile of the same name, which was known as the world’s largest crocodile in captivity.[9] A 6.7 meters (22 ft) long animatronic, enhanced by computer-generated imagery was used to depict the crocodile “Dakila”.[10]

In October 2020, Filipino actress Sanya Lopez left the series due to joining the drama series First Yaya.[11]Kim Domingo was also initially attached to appear in the series.[12] Principal photography commenced in July 2021 in Quezon.[13] It was halted in August 2021 due to the enhanced community quarantine in National Capital Region caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.[14]
