It was over a year ago when we posted about the next actress that will play the Darna role, that was Liza Soberano.  Due to certain circumstances that transpired during the span of time that Liza was doing the preparation and the shooting of the Darna movie, Liza announced her withdrawal from the movie. This was after the severe finger injury that she had.

With that a new race to pick and select the right actress for the role. There are some of have auditioned for it. Some made it comedic like Alex Gonzaga and some where pretty well prepared for the audition like Julia Barretto. There were also recommendations from the netizens like Nadine Lustre, Kathryn Bernardo, and more.

In the end there could be only one and just today it was announced who will be the replacement of Liza as Darna.


As I was browsing from the line up of suggested actresses to fit the role, this pretty lady is out of the list. Not even a clue that she will be picked to be the next to play the Darna role. So, who it was? Well it's Jane De Leon. Who she is? Well, if you've followed the TV Series Halik you'll eventually recognize her as the hot tempered sister of Lino (Jericho Rosales character) when it comes to Jade. Also, Jane has been part of the Girltrends which regularly performs in It's Showtime.

So, what do you think, will she be one of the best fit for the Darna role? Well, let us see and watch!

Yes, you read it right. Liza Soberano is the newest actress who will play the role of the iconic superheroine created by Mars Ravelo's Darna. Well I got surprised at first, though she was one of the few shortlisted actresses who would be the next to play the role of Darna.

In the news that was out for the public it is said that Liza Soberano will do more than 100 percent of what is expected of her. She should be because the stars who have played the role made an impression to the viewers and fans of Darna. The last actress who played the role was Angel Locsin who was able to par with the standards of the previous actress who portrayed the role like Sharon Cuneta and Vilma Santos. So, will that 100 percent more can level that standard? Let us see.

In my own observation, Liza look and personality fits the character of Narda I just don't know if she can radiate the heroic aura of Darna. Yes, Liza is a versatile actress but there are some things that are left as it is and for this particular iconic superheroine character it seems that she'll be having a hard time to beam up that look.

So we'll just see and expect the best from her and let us hope that aside from the marketing and glam of the costume we will still see the character of Darna or Narda through her.

Oh one more thing, with the filming style of Erik Matti I really don't know how the movie will end up. I'm not sure if Liza already worked with Direk Erik Matti. So there's a big void in the air that needs to be occupied until the full trailer of Darna.

So, what do you think of her being the next Darna? You can comment your reaction and let's see what will be the outcome of this.
