About Checkmate
When a dramatic college student, Jo, spirals over her childhood best friend’s new relationship, she ropes her quiet, dependable friend into a series of increasingly desperate sabotage schemes—only to realize too late that the girl helping her has been carefully making moves to win her heart instead.
Directed by Aui Almeda, Checkmate leans on a strong ensemble — Ninon Espiritu, Samantha Ortega, Isabelle Laurente — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about romance titles of 2026.
