Marian Rivera as Darna

Philippine Primetime Queen Marian Rivera returns to the small screen as the greatest Philippine heroine of all time--Darna.

Clad in a red and gold suit, Marian Rivera--who plays the dual role of Narda and Darna--will only be the second actress next to Vilma Santos to play the role of Dyesebel and Darna, both Mars Ravelo creations. Marian also joins the ranks of Gina Pareño, Rio Locsin, Nanette Medved, Anjanette Abayari, Regine Velasquez and Vilma Santos in the portrayal of perhaps the most sought-after role in the Philippines. Angel Locsin last donned the Darna suit in 2005.

Darna premieres this Monday on GMA Telebabad. In the meantime, enjoy these exclusive pictures of Darna.
