Did Nadine Lustre audition for Darna?

Nadine Lustre, who is expected by many to bag the role of Darna, revealed that she did not audition for it

In an interview with CNN Philippines, Nadine said that she was grateful for people comparing her to the Pinay superheroine.

“I did not put any effort on it, I did not audtion for it,” Nadine explained.

“To be compared or be likened to Darna na independent and empowered parang it’s really nice,” Nadine said.

She laughed off when asked about her video with Viva talent Donnalyn Bartolome where she shouted the viral ‘Darna’.

Meanwhile, Darna director Jerrold Tarog shared on Twitter that Jane De Leon was a unanimous choice for the role.

“Glad it’s finally out. The execs wanted a new face for Darna and I was all for it. Thus, open auditions—newbies, celebs, chinita, mestiza, morena, etc basta ??. The short list was a good mix but ultimately it was about who could carry the role. @Imjanedeleon was a unanimous choice,” Tarog said.
