Erik Matti and ABS-CBN decide to part ways on Darna

Erik Matti was supposed to be the director of ABS-CBN's adaptation of "Darna," but despite all the lengthy preparations (which included the replacement of the lead actress), it was announced on Thursday that the director and the network "decided to part ways in the filming" of the much-awaited movie.

ABS-CBN has released a statement Thursday afternoon announcing that Erik Matti will no longer be the director of "Darna" which will star Liza Soberano.

"ABS-CBN, Star Cinema, and director Erik Matti have mutually decided to part ways in the filming of "Darna" because of creative differences," the statement read.

It also said that not being involved in the said movie will "allow the filmmaker to work on his other projects under his own production company Reality Entertainment."

"Darna" will still push through, though, and ABS-CBN is set to announce the name of the movie's new director soon.
