One Night Only was shot on Marcos Highway in Antipolo[2] during an August weekend.[3] One of the lead actresses, Katrina Halili, was hired for the first time to work with writer-director Jose Javier Reyes.[3] She signed the contract on July 22, 2008, to appear in this as well as in a remake of Miss X.[3] On August 13, 2008, Diana Zubiri and Iya Villania joined the cast, replacing Roxanne Guinoo and Angelica Panganiban.[4] That day, director Reyes wanted to replace Diether Ocampo, while still keeping Valerie Concepcion and Joross Gamboa.[4] A month before its release, the film had already some controversy surrounding its cast.[5]
