Lito Pimentel joins “Darna” as cunning scientist Dr. Ibarra
Darna (Jane De Leon) continues her search for General Borgo (Richard Quan) in hopes of finally beating the Martean who is set to destroy human life in the season finale of the hit primetime series “Mars Ravelo’s Darna.”
Darna has been working with Hergis/ Master Klaudio (Joko Diaz), Lolo Rolando (Levi Ignacio), and Ding (Zaijian Jaranilla) to find Borgo’s hidden spaceship and is now closer than ever to making her attack on the general.
The series has also introduced the character of Dr. Florentino Ibarra, played by veteran actor Lito Pimentel, the scientist in charge of the facility established to house the Extras.
Lolo Rolando described Dr. Ibarra as his former student who does not care about the effects of his experiments on humans as long as he finds a discovery. In Dr. Ibarra’s investigation, he finally uncovered the green crystal that causes the mutation of Extras.
Will General Borgo, disguised as Madam Victoria (Carla Martinez), succeed in his evil plan to beat Darna with the help of the cunning Dr. Ibarra?
