Angel Locsin as Filipina superhero Darna from the 2005 television series of the same name that ran for 170 episodes.
ANGEL LOCSIN . . . — the third party.
The True to Life-Darna
Clothed in the scent of the swan and capybara. The sun sitting in the sky sounds like crackling on the earth when Angelica Locsin Colmenares shine from the heavens blue on April 23, 1985 in Sta. Maria Bulacan, the land of superheroes that don't need to wear cape to be called heroes.
In the beat of acceptance, she is a Christian by heart and part of Muslim Royal blood in the shimmered surface of Lake Lanao. The distant tingle of a kulintang grown by her mother, Emma Colmenares who's adopted by a glamorous princess. There can be no goodbye for them, the connection still lives on although they're far to each other at the starting life point of a fourteen year old Angel. Since then she lived on with the unconditional love of her father who's name is Angelo Colmenares. Her human calculator, strength and hands to count on freely as provider.
Education is a gift that allows everyone to travel the mind and look beyond the world. Through the tides and stones that life took her to different places, she remembers who she is a humble student of Saint James College of Quezon City. And finished her secondary education at the oldest existing university in Asia, University of Sto. Tomas. In the year 2007 of August, she attended a short-course of fashion designing to be able to voice out a personality without saying a thing at Central Saint Martin’s College of Arts and Design at the place of Big Ben.
In the summer age of her teenage years, the vessel of her hearts never left the river that floated her beauty. Her splendid nose and eyes, into sun and honey time of her lips, no questions to drop she was unpredictably discovered roaming inside a shopping center by a talent scout in Quezon City instead of attending to school. Much control over life— one bump in the road won't stop her journey to explore. She auditioned for several commercials and supposed to be member of Star Circle Batch 9 in the network of ABS-CBN. However, she failed to commit her contract signing due to his father's rejection of the idea she's going to enter a publicly figure. Sometimes it takes an overwhelming breakdown to make an undeniable breakthrough, and so she did. She became a glittering star of GMA Artist Center. And for the longest time she's been walking alone, it's an open door to be included in the teen-oriented TV Show, Click and Ang Ibigin Ay Ikaw.
She waited her appearance in the reveries of the day, and it was like a pollen in spring. By the wind she carried away and far. After talking about Television series, people don't forget how movie films make them feel. Angel's first movie was in 2002 through Ping Lacson Supercop, wherein she played the role of a Young Robina Gokongwei. Then, Mano po 2 in the year 2003. Next is the teen-oriented movie Kuya in 2004, as well as the comedy film Singles. In addition, she starred in the drama Mano po III: My Love and the horrible film Sigaw which are both an entry to the 2004 Manila Film Festival.
Angel Locsin pour her energy and love into things that delight her heart and soul. In the moonlight, when day turns to night, and when the moon whisper to the starts, come to me. August 2004 looked across the road, while waiting to take it leads when it's her turn. A bird that calls out in rejoice, lifts its feather through the eyes of spectators. Indeed, fantasy-theme took the people's mind out of reality, wherein Angel Locsin portrayed the character "Alwina" alongside to the famous actor, Richard Gutierrez. They played a quantum leap through the television series Mulawin. The show was a huge victory and received its lofty ratings until to its end on March, 2005.
In the year 2005, the romantic film Let the Love Begin, released under the GMA network. She and Richard Gutierrez replayed their roles as Alwina and Aguiluz in the movie adaptation of Mulawin series, which is an entry to the Metro Manila Film Festival.
Created a charming atmosphere with a glowing cosmos. No where to be hidden, following Angel Locsin's success of Mulawin. On the same year, another fiction television series— she was cast in the title role in one of the most iconic hero in the Philippines, Darna. The show was also well received by the general audience, receiving extremely high ratings and breaking records set by her prior television show. Darna's pilot week average is 50.08 percent, with 52.1 percent being the highest and 33.3 percent being the lowest.
Indeed, a real life Darna. Yet she doesn't need to channel it. She's consistently helping the Gabriela Party list and many other Children Foundations in the country. In fact, April 23, 2007, she celebrated her birthday with the Gabriela— a political-sector party list that supports women and less fortunate children.
A great chemistry love team she made with Richard Gutierrez, they played more mature roles in the romantic drama, The Promise in 2007. Then in the same year, it followed by her own film entitled Angels, showed in theaters.

To see the world, not in the immensity of it, but in the little things that go unnoticed. The things that made Angel feel present and loved. She's the rare and the good kind, for she is the one who nurture the life. A steady soul for uncertain adventure, a mind filled with too many passions and dreams. An eye that refuses to see failure, and hands that sculpt the fantasies where Majika exist. Another television series of Angel together with Dennis Trillo, was played from March to September, in the year 2006. Angel is Sabrina, a seemingly ordinary woman who lived in the world of mortals without prior knowledge that she's destined to become the most compelling magician. After that, she was cast in the Asian treasures, an adventure quest that face perils as they seek hidden gems. Compare to Robin Padilla, it was Angel's first Philippine TV show aired in January to June of 2007 that shot in different countries, such as Thailand, Mongolia, and the land of the dragon, China.
In the same year, August 2007. Angel signed her two-year exclusive contract in the ABS-CBN Network, with her first on stage appearance to the show that brings light to extraordinary real-life stories and anecdotes of ordinary people as well as known celebrities in Maalaala Mo Kaya, episode "Pilat."
Angel is gifted enough with her acting skills, showed her prodigy and confidence. Struck by a mime, it's really a matter of time, a moment to reap the rewards of all she has sown, Angel won a Star award for Television Best Single Performance. In the next year, 2008. She launched her first drama series with the network together with Piolo Pascual, entitled Lobo. Wherein she received an International Emmy Award for Best Performance by an Actress nomination for her outstanding role in the series.
People fell in love with her colors. She is authentic just like her movie Love Me Again Together with Piolo Pascual in 2009. Additionally, she made a cameo in the romantic comedy film, My Amnesia Girl in 2010.
Her season to the mind is but excuses to burrow back in the comforting certainty of elapsed time as the quotidian sun drag itself from one corner to the other through sunken skies where each period, she receives a project. A Philippines imitation of the Korean drama of the same name shown in 2005 by SBS Korea, entitled Only You. Starring Angel Locsin in this top-rated Television series in 2009. Later on, the same year, she co-starred with the multi-awarded actor, John Lloyd Cruz in the TV series Immortal, which was a sequel to her previous film Lobo. She also appeared as a guest star in the comedy sitcom Toda Max in 2011. Yet her guest appearances, grew into a regular gig. After three years, in the 2014, Angel Locsin returned to primetime TV after three years through the remarkable hit series, The Legal Wife that breaks the Filipino heart.
In the Name of Love, Locsin's 2011 drama film featuring Aga Muhlach, received rave reviews. Her performance earned her numerous awards, including the Star Award for Movies for Movie Actress of the Year, the Gawad PASADO Award for Pinakapasadong Aktres, and a FAMAS Award nomination for best actress.
She debuted in the romantic comedy film Unofficially Yours with John Lloyd Cruz in 2012, and then in the drama film One More Try with Dingdong Dantes and Angelica Panganiban, which was Star Cinema's entry to the 2012 Metro Manila Film Festival. Film reviewers and media people lauded Locsin's performance in the latter, earning her the Star Award for Movies for Movie Actress of the Year for the second year in a row, the FAMAS Award for Best Actress, and the Film Academy of the Philippines Award for Best Actress.
People don't know the creak and crank of her bones, the blackness of her blood clots and the circumstances of her whole history. No matter what that mouth say, doesn't make her less of a person. Since in late 2015, Angel revealed that she's been suffering from a rare condition called "bulging disc injury." And underwent to a surgery repaired of her spine. One of the side effects of the legal drugs she's taking in are weight gain. With no options, she can't stop her medication since it will be going to affect her life. While the ABS-CBN Network took pain to explain that Angel is no longer allowed to do strenuous physical activities due to this spine injury caused by various roles with intensive physical training. A photo of her circulated on different platforms. However, she's an unbothered queen that many people stan.
In August 2017, a dating rumors sparked between Angel Locsin and Neil Arce, a professional poker player champion in 2009 Asian Poker Tour Philippines and a Filipino film producer. Neil appeared in Angel's Instagram profile during an opening of a dermatology clinic. Yet in September Angel confirmed that she was exclusively dating Neil but not yet in a relationship status. They both attended Anne Curtis and Erwan Heussaff wedding in New Zealand. In one of Angel's post, she wrote, "Anydau spent with you is my favorite day." that tagged Neil.
With 8 years of friendship, carefully holding each other's heart. They both know what they have gone through. Yet, they have no idea that this a start of a lifetime to fall in love with each other. He became the guy who can charm Angel across the room with just smile. And then, Angel found herself entwined with Neil’s strings and publicly announced their relationship in February 2018. It continued to bloom, as they traveled to several countries together. After that, in June 2019, proudly they want to extend to the next level, to allow both of themselves to take good care of each other’s for the rest of their lives, both announced that they were engaged.
Life throws unexpected events. Just like in 2020, Angel's wedding had to delay due to COVID-19 pandemic. Instead of planning to one of the most memorable moment of their lives, they poured themselves with relief operations during the pandemic and other disasters. However, in April 2020 when they launched the #UniTENTweStandPH a fundraising campaign to address the issue of hospitals overcrowding due to abundant cases of COVID-19. But this experience empowered more their relationship. Even when there are things that Angel and his fiancée disagree, they still both end up in ways how to fix it. Additionally, they both decided to start a YouTube channel wherein they vlog about their daily lives, in September 2020.
Marriage works on give and take, to trust each other’s. Not measured in days or the changing of seasons. Love springs as lightly as the lovely rose upon the brier. Which turns a common hedge to a floral fire. Two love wings, with rosy feathered dart, a subtle works of art and purity. Tying the knot in 2021. Angel and Neil announced on August 7, 2021 their marriage, and moved to a new home.
With no doubt, Angel Locsin, holds a special place in many Filipino hearts. Beyond her various television series and films, called as the real life Darna, and also a philanthropist who's behind several causes of relief efforts for typhoon victims, Taal eruption, and COVID-19 patients. No wonder why she's a hero that don't need to wear capes. Despite the fact that she has gained weight in her 30s, she is uninterested with concealing her form beneath baggy attire. Indeed, her viral photographs from June 2020, in which she appears to be curvier while filming her docu-reality show Iba 'Yan, captivated netizens with her unapologetic confidence in her figure.
She's also a loving daughter. Angelo Colmenares, her father, has played a key role in shaping her into the woman she is today. And she never forgets to express her gratitude for her father, with whom she has shared her life since she was 14.
Angel was advocating for women's empowerment. Inspired by leaders such as the late Gina Lopez and Mother Teresa, Angel has been vocal about the issues surrounding women today such as gender-based stereotypes and violence. There is a stigma, which people inherited unconsciously from society on how women should behave, yet she expressed disappointment toward these negative connotations to women who tend to display a strong personality.
A true-blue philanthropist, Angel's charity and advocacy are not a one-off contribution, but in fact she's a consistent Angel, a hero since 2009. From typhoon Ondoy and Pepeng, through the Marawi siege in 2017. She flew to the war-torn city to visit the affected and distributed relief goods. She headed so many efforts with no surprise she named in Forbe's Asia'a Heroes Philanthropy list in 2019.
Little drops of water, little grains of sand and pleasant land. Angel is humble and down to earth. She led to a soul from the path of virtue, far from the sin to stray. Her deeds of kindness, words of love, make our hearts happy, like the heaven above. Because of Angel Locsin, there is adoring kindness that walks in the darkness, make its way among the bombs and broken lives. She offers blankets and a shoulder to cry on. Puts on kettles and bandages that mends what it should and not one thing back. That's what she is, with or without camera, she doesn't need to channel her inner Darna— she's already a true to life Darna.

Absolutely a great prequel and sequel. Both movies are fantastic and entertaining as heck. The prequel actually came second but I recommend watching it first if you’re new to both. I do prefer the sequel a lil more (Four Sisters and a Weddings) over the other one. Though both are hilarious fun heartwarming movies.
