Phil wants to see Angel as Darna


MANILA, Philippines – Azkals striker Phil Younghusband thinks it would be interesting to see his girlfriend, actress Angel Locsin, reprise her role as the iconic Pinay superheroine.


It was recently reported that ABS-CBN earned the rights to Mars Ravelo's “Darna” character and Locsin has expressed interest in donning the two-piece sexy costume anew.

In a text message sent to ABS-CBNnews.com, Younghusband said he doesn’t know if the rumors of the supposed remake are true or not but he said, “It would be great to see Angel as Darna again.”

“I never got to see her play it the first time but people always tell me how popular it was when she played the role and it would be very exciting if she were to be Darna again,” Younghusband said.

Locsin first portrayed the fictional Filipina icon in 2005, before she became a Kapamilya.

Meanwhile, aside from seeing Locsin play the superheroine character again, Younghusband is also looking forward to the Azkals’ game against the Singapore national football team on November 15 in Cebu.

“Azkals training will start on the 9th, and leave for Cebu on the 12th. But I have training and UFL games with Meralco up until then,” he said.

Asked if he thinks they could win the upcoming match, Younghusband said: “We have confidence from our last game with them and it will be in Cebu in front of our own Filipino fans so we are looking forward to it. We will prepare to win the game and if we play as well as we did against them last time, then we have a very good chance.”
