Jane De Leon is the new Darna. Star Cinema announced the news Wednesday on Instagram. Jane De Leon is a “Girltrends” member.
“We have found a new Darna and she is none other than Jane de Leon,” ABS-CBN Films’ managing director Olivia Lamasan said. She said Ms. De Leon auditioned for the role of Narda/Darna and that she and Lauren Dyogi, ABS-CBN’s Entertainment Production Director, saw something with her.
“Sabi ko ay there’s something about her. Pati si Direk Lauren said there’s something about her. Bilang filmmakers, may nakikita kami. Malakas ang instinct ng bata,” Lamasan said.
“Yung Darna story natin ngayon is a genesis story, a coming of age. Ang requirement talaga is somebody na young and with an air of innocence but at the same time a strength of character,” Lamasan further said.
Darna was originally for Angel Locsin and then Liza Soberano, but both withdrew from the new Darna movie because of injuries.
Angel Locsin already congratulated Jane De Leon for being the new Darna.
