WATCH: Kathryn Bernardo on playing Darna
MANILA, Philippines — Following Liza Soberano’s withdrawal from Star Cinema’s “Darna” movie due to a finger injury, the search is on again for the next actress who will revive the Filipina superhero onscreen.
Due to her “morena” skin and Filipina features, among fans’ favorites to replace Liza is Kathryn Bernardo.
“For me, ‘yung Darna is such an iconic role,” Kathryn said in an exclusive interview with Philstar.com during the launch of her Generation Happy Skin Active makeup line last Saturday.
“Of course, lahat ng artista gusto ‘yun gawin, pero hindi lahat pwedeng maging si Darna.”
Kathryn admits that she is also a big Darna fan.
“Yes, of course. S’ya ‘yung representative natin ‘no?”
Nonetheless, she thinks she cannot fill the Pinay superhero’s boots.
“Personally, I don’t think I can be Darna kasi ewan ko, parang kinalakihan ko s’ya… S’ya ‘yung representative ng mga babae, so I want something na a bit older than me.”
She also does not anyone in mind who can replace Liza.
“’Di ko alam. Ang hirap personally mamili kung sino ‘yung perfect for the role ng Darna. Pero maybe it’s not for me.” — Video by Kathleen Leandicho
