<p>After being introduced in the action series Roja as the love interest of Luna (played by Maymay Entrata), actor Jeremiah Lisbo shared with <a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/showbiz"><strong>PUSH ABS-CBN</strong></a><strong> </strong>in an exclusive interview how he enjoyed getting the chance to play doctor Ivan Ledesma, who became an ally to the protagonists in the story after the hospital he works in gets hijacked. </p><div><br/></div><p>“I learned to be a doctor here. Isa sa eksena na hindi ko makakalimutan is yung eksena namin ni Maymay, yung linagyan siya ng sedative tapos na-high siya. Tapos yung eksenang yun, hindi ko talaga maka-focus kasi natatawa talaga ako. So si direk Law (Fajardo) sabi, ‘Miah, huwag kang tumawa!’ Natatawa talaga ako. Pero kasi, shot niya yun eh. So talagang kino-control ko yung tawa ko. Kasi sobrang natural ni Maymay na natatawa ako sa kanya,” he recalled. </p><div><br/></div><div><br/></div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-0" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/C84tJZry-lw/embed/captioned/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A194869.09999999963%2C%22ls%22%3A194477.69999999972%2C%22le%22%3A194483.2999999998%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="969" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-0" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><div><br/></div><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/2021/7/30/fresh-scoops/jeremiah-lisbo-on-working-with-donbelle-on-hes-i-194935"><strong>READ: Jeremiah Lisbo on working with DonBelle on ‘He’s into Her’: ‘Sobrang solid ng chemistry nila’</strong></a></div><div><br/></div><p>Although his character was introduced in the latter part of the series, Jeremiah admitted that he enjoyed working with the talented ensemble cast of <a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/roja"><em><strong>Roja</strong></em></a>, as well as watching director Andoy Ranay at work. </p><div><br/></div><p>“Siyempre nakakalungkot kasi isang patapos na naman na proyekto na marami kang naging ka-close, naka-bond, at nakilala. Parang hindi cast (ang ma-mi-miss ko), si direk Andoy. Kasi lagi lang kaming nagkakatuwaan ni direk Andoy. Yung sa libing na eksena, kasi habang ini-establish pa yung shot na yun sa may garden, yung may namatay sa eksena na yun, tapos talagang bumaba siya dun sa may binungkal na lupa. Tapos si direk andun talaga siya (laughs). Parang kulang na lang, ilibing na si direk! Tapos tumatawa tawa kami. Wala lang. Nakakatawa lang. Dark humor (laughs),” he said. </p><div><br/></div><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/2021/12/26/fresh-scoops/jeremiah-lisbo-on-being-paired-with-kaori-oinuma-i-197668"><strong>READ: Jeremiah Lisbo on being paired with Kaori Oinuma in ‘Love At First Stream’: ‘Sobrang suwerte ko’</strong></a></div><div><br/></div><div><br/></div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-1" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/DUPo9paj9UN/embed/captioned/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A1%2C%22os%22%3A194893%2C%22ls%22%3A194477.69999999972%2C%22le%22%3A194483.2999999998%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="1013" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-1" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><div><br/></div><div><br/></div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-2" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/DIG0iN-vmke/embed/captioned/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A2%2C%22os%22%3A194913.09999999963%2C%22ls%22%3A194477.69999999972%2C%22le%22%3A194483.2999999998%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="1059" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-2" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><div><br/></div><p>After doing shows like<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/sins-of-the-father"><strong> </strong><em><strong>Sins of the Father</strong></em></a> and <a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/roja"><em><strong>Roja</strong></em></a>, the 27-year-old model-turned-actor admitted to <a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/showbiz"><strong>PUSH ABS-CBN</strong></a> that he would like to get the opportunity to do romance and comedy for a change. “Ngayon kasi madaming action, so siguro balansehin natin ng rom-com.
