Kapamilya star Jane De Leon has revealed that she is now training for her role to fly as the Pinay iconic superheroine, “Darna.”
In an interview during the Star Magic’ Halloween party, De Leon said she is now in the first phase of her training for the iconic role.
“For now, I’m doing the fitness training; and next month I guess ‘yung stunts na. So, hindi ko pa nagagawa ‘yung pinakamahirap na training,” De Leon said.
The actress also admitted she has already tried fitting her costume for Darna.
“Pero abangan natin ‘yan,” De Leon said.
She also talked about the pressure of doing the role because the film project has been through a number of changes and was delayed for a number of years.
“Pero normal naman na ma-pressure talaga, kasi kahit sino naman ang nandito sa posisyon ko po,” De Leon added.
De Leon however clarified that more than being pressured, she is excited to do the project.
“Sobrang ready na talaga ako. Hindi ko naman ine-expect ‘to and binigay sa akin ni Lord ‘to and opportunity ‘to, so bakit hindi ko tatanggapin. Kinakabahan ako but it’s normal naman and ayun, gusto ko lang mapasaya ang mga tao,” she said.
De Leon was announced as replacement for Liza Soberano last June after the original choice to play the role backed out due to finger injury.
Soberano was chosen to play Darna after Angel Locsin refused to do the role because of health reasons. (TN)
