Hashtags members reveal whom they would like to portray Darna

Some members of the It’s Showtime all-male group Hashtags shared whom they would like to portray the iconic role of Darna.

During the contract signing for the local phone brand MyPhone on Thursday, March 30, both Jimboy Martin and Jon Lucas answered 2015 Miss Universe Pia Wurtzbach.

Jimboy said, “Mahirap mamili kasi siyempre papalitan nila si Ms. Angel Locsin. Siguro, opinion ko lang, may mga naririnig lang po ako na Pia Wurtzbach. ‘Nung nakita ko naman po, okay naman po siya… ‘Yun (‘yung) mga naririnig-rinig ko, so umaagree lang ako.”

Likewise, Jon said, “Ang dami ngang pwede eh. Kahit si Kathryn (Bernardo), nakita ko bagay sa kanya eh. Si Nadine (Lustre). Si Liza (Soberano) pwede kaso si Liza kasi parang medyo foreigner na ang dating eh so dapat medyo Pinay-Pinay talaga. Si Pia Wurtzbach na lang siguro.”

Meanwhile, Paulo Angeles, who is also MyPhone’s new endorser, said that as long as the actress embodies features of a true Filipina.

“Para sa’kin kasi, mahirap pumili. Basta Pinay looks at sure naman ako na kung sinong pipiliin ng management, magiging worth it naman ‘yun. Hirap kasing pumili talaga. Maraming magaganda sa ABS [CBN] so wala rin akong rights para sa kung sinong pipiliin ko so bahala na rin po ‘yung management ‘dun.”

Meanwhile, both Zeus Collins and Nikko Natividad root for Wildflower star Maja Salvador to become the next Darna.

After their Push Now Na segment on Wednesday, April 5, Nikko told Push, “Ako tingin ko, kaya ni Maja Salvador. Dati napanood ko rin siya sa Ang Probinsyano, parang pwede siya sa action at saka physically fit siya bukod sa maganda ‘yung katawan niya. ‘Pag iniimagine ko kasi na nakikipag-fight scene siya, parang bagay sa kanya.”

Likewise, Zeus said, “Para sa akin, siyempre, ang nag-iisang Maja Salvador. Flexible, tapos sexy siyempre. Maganda, magaling umakting so ‘yun. Kumbaga para sa akin, easy-ng easy sa kanya ‘yung mga fight scenes para kay Darna.”

However, although management has already announced that Angel Locsin, due to her back problems, will not be playing Darna’s role, Tom Doromal remains her solid fan.

“Siguro kung kakayanin pa rin ni Angel, si Angel. Siya talaga ‘yung original Darna, di ba? So ‘yun, parang pull-off na pull-off niya ‘yung Darna. Siya pa rin (para sa akin),” he said.
