Jane de Leon said she was more than happy to be welcomed as part of the FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano cast this year where she plays a captain named Lia Mante. The pretty Kapamilya actress admitted she has always dreamed of being part of the show even when she just started out in showbiz. “Oo naman. Naging pangarap ko. Nung nagsisimula ako na-imagine ko yung sarili ko na ano kaya kung magiging part ako ng Ang Probinsyano, ano kaya magiging role ko dito, parang ganun. Kasi grabe nung nag-start yun 16 years old pa ako. Five years ago. Kaya nung sinabi sa akin ng management na magiging part ako ng Ang Probinsyano tapos yung magiging role nga is sobrang nagustuhan ko. May pagka brusko kasi si Captain Lia Mante. Sobrang approved talaga sa akin. And ang inaabangan ko talaga dito yung maka-eksena ko si Coco (Martin). Yan ang abangan nating lahat,” she shared during her Ang Probinsyano mediacon on February 5, Friday. <div><a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2021/1/22/fresh-scoops/jane-de-leon-on-working-with-coco-martin-napaka-191192">READ: </a><a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2021/1/22/fresh-scoops/jane-de-leon-on-working-with-coco-martin-napaka-191192">Jane de Leon on working with Coco Martin: ‘Napaka-gentleman niya’​</a></div>Even though she counts as her first big break in the industry her role in the 2018 drama series Halik, Jane said her role as a sniper in Ang Probinsyano will be different from the rest, including her role as Darna.“Biggest break ko talaga before Darna is Halik bilang Maggie Bartolome. Ako [ung] kapatid ni Lito—si kuya Jericho Rosales—and yun ang kauna-unahang regular teleserye ko so far. Actually iba talaga yung role kay Darna at Narda, si Lia Mante and ini-embrace ko pa yung character niya eh. Si Lia kasi sobrang tough niyang tao. Kasi siyempre nasanay kasi ako sa kapatid (roles), yung mga ganun, yung mga estudyante, dun kasi ako nagsimula. Pero siguro kontrabida or bida okay lang basta maging part ako ng show walang problema sa akin yun,” she explained.<div><a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2020/11/27/fresh-scoops/look-jane-de-leon-marks-birthday-with-special-pho-190000">LOOK: Jane de Leon marks birthday with special photo shoot</a></div>Jane also admits that Ang Probinsyano has also helped her offscreen as she needs to be physically fit in preparation to play the iconic Pinay superhero later this year.“Unang una yung endurance ko, kasi matagal ako nag-stay sa bahay eh. Bawal lumabas so kailangan kong tumakbo ulit, mag-exercise, hindi lang sa pagbubuhat. And siyempre yung pag-aarte ulit, yung kailangan ko mag-explore inside Ang Probinsyano, kung ano yung nabibigay nila sa aking aral na kailangan kong i-develop and puwede kong ibigay sa character. Marami akong natutunan sa buhay pa lang ni CM (Coco Martin), dun pa lang sa loob ng set, marami po,” she said.
