Actor Paolo Gumabao takes over the role of Kiko Estrada in Darna: The TV Series
PAOLO GUMABAO – The actor will replace Kiko Estrada in Darna: The TV Series starring Jane de Leon.
It was on Wednesday when the actor took to the image-sharing site, Instagram wherein he reposted a report that he is joining the cast of Darna.
According to him, he will portray the role of Noah Vallesteros in the series.
To recall, it was in October last year when it was announced that Kiko would be playing the role of Noah.
A reliable source told PEP.ph last month that Kiko had to drop his role over conflict with schedule.
Then, Paolo was chosen to take over the role of Kiko.
JRB Creative Production, the ABS-CBN drama unit producing Darna also posted on social media some outtakes from the taping of the series.
Mars Ravelo’s Darna: The TV Series is set to kick off this year.
It stars Jane de Leon as Darna/Narda Custodio, Janella Salvador as Valentina, Joshua Garcia as Brian Samonte Robles, a policeman and Narda’s love interest, and Zaijan Jaranilla as Ricardo “Ding” Custodio, Narda’s brother and sidekick.
Aside from them also joining the series are Rio Locsin as Roberta Ferrer-Custodio, Kiko Estrada as Noah Ballesteros and Iza Calzado as Leonor Custodio, a “prime warrior” from Planet Marte and the mother of Ding and Darna’s human alter ego Narda. She is the “first Darna” who will pass on her magical stone to her daughter Narda.
The Darna role was originally offered to actress Liza Soberano. However, due to circumstances, it was given to Jane de Leon.
