Starting Over Again is a Filipino romantic comedy film directed by Olivia M. Lamasan, starring Piolo Pascual, Toni Gonzaga and Iza Calzado. It was produced and distributed by Star Cinema as part of its 20th anniversary.[2] It officially premiered in the Philippines on February 12, 2014.[3]

The film was an instant box-office success earning 25 million pesos on its opening day.[2] On March 15, 2014, a month after its theatrical release, the film earned a total domestic gross of 410 million pesos.

The story revolves on two former lovers who meet again four years later through a project, and the plot goes over flashbacks - an email, a backstory, and the self esteem of moving on, letting go, and redemption - a narrative used in most Olivia Lamasan films.
