Actress Jane de Leon says she is the type of artist who gives great value and honors utang na loob (debt of gratitude).

“I would always remind myself about what my life was like when I was just starting in this business. I make sure to express my thankfulness to the people who have become part of my journey as an actress. I would not be where I am now if not for these people and the companies they represent,” said Jane, whose last big-screen project, “Shake Rattle and Roll Extreme,” was released by Regal Entertainment in 2023.

“My advice to those who are aspiring to make it in this business is to be humble and thankful always. Don’t let fame and popularity get to your head. Don’t ever change. Just continue doing what you love doing, and work hard,” she said.

The 25-year-old actress became a household name after her portrayal of the Filipino superheroine Darna in its latest TV adaptation in 2022. INQ
