La Promesa Shocked with Jana's Death, but María Castro Reveals the Whole Truth

The death of Jana, played by Ana Garcés, was as sudden as it was disconcerting. She was shot in her own room without giving the followers time to prepare for such a key moment. Even less so after she had married Manuel and they were expecting a child.

From the beginning, she had been the heart of La Promesa, the tireless heroine, the figure around whom all the plots revolved. Therefore, her death left both the audience and the characters of the series completely devastated.

But now, thanks to María Castro, viewers have been able to know the real background. The actress has shared a video of the filming of her funeral, in which she is seen with other cast members dancing during a break. Although it may seem like an out-of-place scene, the goal was, according to her own explanation, to release tensions after filming such emotionally intense sequences.

Furthermore, the Galician has taken advantage of that post to reveal the big secret of Jana's departure: "Ana is leaving (although never entirely), by her own decision. I know that with a full heart, and this has been the way to justify it, which, as always, will never please everyone."

Therefore, she has confirmed that Ana Garcés's departure was not imposed by the network or the writers. It was a personal decision by the actress, who chose to close this professional chapter after almost three years of absolute dedication to the project.

María Castro Gives More Details and Sends a Message to La Promesa Fans

The farewell of the protagonist has been as hard for the viewers as for her fellow cast members. Thus, María Castro has acknowledged that filming those scenes was especially painful: "These episodes have been so hard to shoot: Jana's shooting, the death, the wake. Also, the farewell of Ana Garcés, actress and locker room mate (buaaaaaa), not just the character, made everything so intense."

These words show the strong connection between the cast and also the great emotional impact this departure has had on the entire team. But the one who plays Pía Adarre in the fiction hasn't stopped there.

She wanted to send a direct message to the followers of La Promesa: "We await you, as always, faithful to the rest of the characters and also faithful to the revenge that remains open and unsolved. In a way, it now multiplies, and the task of everyone is to avenge her death. For her, for the well-written and executed character that has kept you glued to the screen for these two and a half years."

Moreover, she also wanted to address the anger that Ana's departure has caused among the followers. With great sincerity, she stated: "In some way, it's nice that it has raised blisters because it only means one thing: that La Promesa is already part of your life."

Additionally, Josep Cister, the creator of the fiction, confirmed in an interview that the decision for her departure was made several months in advance and was very well thought out. In fact, the plot twist was carefully designed to pay tribute to the character and leave the door open for the development of new plots. Because if this revelation has made anything clear, it's that the story doesn't end with Jana; it simply takes a new direction.

In short, María Castro has achieved what seemed impossible: calming the waters after one of the most traumatic moments of La Promesa. Bringing some clarity amid the confusion. Now, with the truth already on the table, all that remains is to see how the series evolves without its protagonist and what new twists await us.
