Will Darna Fall into Borgo's Trap

Backed by his newly formed soldiers who have superpowers to cause great harm, Heneral Borgo (Richard Quan) has made his biggest move yet to finally seize the mystical white stone from Narda/ Darna (Jane De Leon) in the hit primetime series “Mars Ravelo’s Darna.”

Among the supervillains are Noah (Paolo Gumabao), Andre (Young JV), Mayor Zaldy (Simon Ibarra), Maisha (Dawn Chang), Sigfried (Joshua Colet), Arthur Pineda (Eric Fructuoso), Ishna (Kim Rodriguez), and (Ali) Mark Manicad.

Noah can now manipulate fire, Andre has explosive powers, Mayor Zaldy has superhuman strength, Maisha can make people involuntarily move and mimic her, Pineda can control inanimate objects, and Sigfried can create a force field as a shield.  Ishna, the longtime assistant of Borgo, is a shapeshifter, while Ali has yet to transform and demonstrate his superpowers.

Two Julias Take Over Each Other's Lives In iWant's "I AM U"

Julia stars opposite Tony Labrusca in her first digital series.

Julia Barretto finds herself tormented by one unfortunate event after another after she crosses paths with a doppelganger, a girl who looks exactly just like her, in the mystery psycho thriller "I AM U," streaming on iWant starting this February 26 (Wednesday).


The iWant original series features Julia as two identical yet vastly different giris-Elise, who has the best of everything in life, and Rose, who has close to nothing.

The two unexpectedly meet when Rose saves Elise's life. Both thankful and in awe of the their similarity in looks, Elise invites Rose into her world, treats her as her twin, and shares everything she has-including her house, family, and friends.

As soon as Rose becomes comfortable, however, Elise sees her as a threat and suddenly wants her out of her life.

In a party that changes everything, Elise bullies Rose into hiding inside a closet during a game of "Truth or Dare." While inside, an accidental fire ensues, leaving Rose locked in. Elise and her friends cover up the tragedy and think everything is behind them--until one by one, they fall to their mysterious deaths.

How are the deaths linked to Rose's demise? Who will be left unscathed?

The digital series is helmed by iWant's "Past, Present, Perfect?" and "Uncoupling" director Dwein Ruedas Baltazar, and produced by Dreamscape Entertainment in partnership with The IdeaFirst Company. Its cast also include Ina Raymundo, Richard Quan, Cedrick Juan, Kokoy De Santos, Adrianna So, Claire Ruiz, Lander Vera Perez, Yayo Aguila, Jenny Miller, and Tony Labrusca.
