Veteran actor Richard Quan believes all superhero series like “Darna” should be sources of inspiration for the audience.

“I’m most fascinated by superheroes,” Quan declared during the grand mediacon for “Mars Ravelo’s Darna: The TV Series” earlier this month.

Quan said he grew up watching the Darna versions of Rio Locsin, Anjanette Abayari and Nanette Medved.

“After the visuals, after the entertainment factor, lagi akong nag-e-end being inspired kung ano ang ginagawa ng superhero. So I hope ‘yun din ang madama ng mga manonood,” he said.

(…I always end up being inspired by what the superhero does. So I hope the audience feels the same.)

Quan plays Rex Vanguardia in the series.

“It’s a very interesting character in a very exciting project,” he said, taking note that his co-actors, the staff and crew were such big “blessings.”

Quan declined to give a detailed definition of his character because he does not want to spoil the story. For now, what the public knows is that he plays father to Janella Salvador’s Valentina character. JB
