In early October, Orquia was announced to be featured in Shake, Rattle & Roll 14, an official entry to the annual Metro Manila Film Festival. The film was scheduled to be released on December 25, 2012 and was to be Orquia's first big screen appearance. However, in November 2012 Orquia's name was removed in the final cast list.

Mutya Orquia received the Best Child Performance award for her performance as Abby Lim in Be Careful With My Heart at the 4th FMTM Awards 2012 for TV Entertainment.

It was announced in June 2013 that Orquia will reprise her role as Abby in a theatrical adaptation of Be Careful With My Heart, which is to be included in the 2013 Metro Manila Film Festival. However in September 2013, the movie pulled out from the said festival due to schedule conflict of its main casts. No further announcement was made if the producers will still push through the movie.
