00:00So, guys, to start, I want to know, in this story,
00:02is it going to be Team Raimundo, Team Serginho or Team Bruna?
00:06I loved this question, because I used to ask myself
00:10when I was reading the script,
00:12guys, who are these people going to root for?
00:15I have my fans, I'm not going to say it,
00:17because I don't want to take anyone under my wing,
00:21I want people to root for Bruna.
00:23But I think that Raimundo...
00:27I said I wasn't going to say it, I'm saying it.
00:30I can't take it.
00:31Raimundo is the guy that I think
00:36is the one that tries the most,
00:38he's the arch of redemption.
00:40He seeks the arch of redemption,
00:42and he almost gets it, twice,
00:45when he pays the jail,
00:50and he gets it later, in a second attempt,
00:55he almost gets it later,
00:58but I can't tell you the end of the show.
01:01It's very difficult to talk about bandit lives without spoiling it,
01:04because it's a very agile show,
01:07everything happens very fast,
01:08the episodes are tight,
01:11the story is very cohesive.
01:14So I think Raimundo is the one that gets closer
01:19to an attempt to redeem himself,
01:22to get out of the revenge attempt.
01:27I think that Serginho and Bruna are there,
01:32they want revenge, and they can't see anything ahead.
01:36I'm sorry, I'm going to be Team Bruna,
01:39because my sister, I'm sorry,
01:42Raimundo, Serginho, I don't care.
01:44I'm Team Bruna, forever.
01:46I would be Team Marina.
01:49Man, that's disgusting.
01:50But you know why?
01:52I'll explain why.
01:53Because for me, of all the characters,
01:56you'll see this during the show,
01:58and I think Marina can talk better about her character, of course,
02:02but for me, Tomás, as a viewer,
02:04I think Marina is the most integral character,
02:07in the sense of being the human being
02:12who keeps his ideals within a fluid social ethic,
02:17politically correct, you know?
02:20Of course, in a very specific scene from the show,
02:24you'll see that she makes a decision,
02:26but, in my opinion, it's a legitimate defense of this character.
02:31But I see that the integrity of this person
02:34is politically firm, you know?
02:39Speaking of Raimundo, I don't see him as a hero,
02:44even though we have a feeling for him in the beginning,
02:49for the betrayal that Serginho did,
02:50but he chose to be in that robbery too.
02:54In a way, he chose to rob,
02:56he said he didn't want to, but he chose to rob.
02:59So, his ideal may not be bad,
03:01he may not be a bad person,
03:04even because you don't see greed in Raimundo,
03:07but you see that he took this attitude,
03:09he could maybe choose another path.
03:12It's something that Marina, I don't see her doing.
03:15At no time does it stop, at no time does she slip in this place.
03:19Which we can't say about Serginho, right?
03:21I agree with you.
03:23He's a real moron, guys.
03:25He's a real moron.
03:27Guys, I...
03:29Kiss, that's it.
03:30I wanted to know if you, as an actor who defends the character,
03:33do you have a way to defend him, Serginho?
03:34I have a way.
03:36So, defend him.
03:37I always have a way to defend him.
03:38I'm the actor who defends,
03:40something we were talking about before,
03:41I think we have to find humanity in every human being we interpret.
03:47That's true, even in the choices.
03:49It brings the public's closeness to recognize themselves somewhere.
03:54Saying, no, maybe I understand.
03:56You know?
03:57Of course, but I, Rodrigo, can also say that Serginho
04:00makes completely wrong choices
04:03that determine the course of his life, you know?
04:06So it's hard to defend from the outside.
04:09From the inside, I need to find a way to defend this person.
04:12Yes.
04:13Are you the type who defends your character?
04:15Does she have a defense?
04:16I think she has.
04:17A lot of defense.
04:18What person can lose a sister and not want justice?
04:24Justice, it's different.
04:25Yes, but all revenge is a search for justice to be done.
04:32With your own hands.
04:33With your own hands.
04:34It's a desire to redeem the owner,
04:38looking for some kind of justice for yourself.
04:40If the world didn't do justice for me, I'll look for that justice.
04:44So I'll take revenge.
04:45I'll want someone to pay for the evil that caused me.
04:49Most of the time, it's either a cane,
04:54or it's sadness and a deep emptiness.
04:57Because the purpose, the sense of purpose,
05:00it has to be in the front.
05:02Yes.
05:02It can't be in the past, in what has already been lived.
05:05But I think everyone identifies with this desire to take revenge.
05:12Sometimes we unconsciously want to take revenge.
05:15Unconsciously, we want to do things to give answers
05:19to something that was done to us.
05:21At work, in relationships.
05:24How many times do we want to take revenge,
05:26to show that we're in a better relationship
05:29than with that person who abandoned us?
05:32So, they're desires for revenge.
05:35Not all of them are legal, but they're desires that we live.
05:41Larissa, your character starts in the first episode,
05:43when she says she doesn't want to be a thug's wife.
05:45And she puts one finger on the other.
05:47You see, the size...
05:49This question is very recurring.
05:51Why the size of the rotten finger?
05:53I want to know if you know someone like that,
05:56like, with this rotten finger.
05:58Who inspired you to build this character?
06:00Say the name.
06:02Say the name and describe it.
06:04Look, it was...
06:06I think there's something...
06:10I went far, I came back.
06:12I think Marina is...
06:14She's a character that doesn't want to be a thug's wife
06:16because she loves this man.
06:18She wants to build a peaceful life with him.
06:20She has...
06:22She's from the same place
06:24of having simpler ambitions.
06:26And then we see in the series
06:28that even your simplest dream
06:30can be
06:32to live a turnaround
06:34that you don't even expect from where it comes from.
06:36I think she's really hit
06:38by this turnaround
06:40between the three of them.
06:42More precisely, between Serginho and Raimundo.
06:44And she doesn't know
06:46about the history,
06:48about this partnership between the two.
06:50She, in a moment of vulnerability,
06:52finds this man
06:54that we don't know...
06:56That she's already loving a lot.
06:58We don't know what's going on
07:00in these six years,
07:02if they lived together happily or not.
07:04But I think there's a place of support
07:07that she found in him.
07:09And when she, in a moment of the story,
07:11finds Raimundo again,
07:13then she starts to understand
07:15where she was,
07:17where she was really involved.
07:19And this is very strong.
07:21I think that throughout the episodes
07:23we'll see this woman transforming
07:25because there's no turning back
07:27from where she left.
07:29I think her decisions also...
07:31Taking what Tomás said,
07:33she's a very whole woman,
07:35and it's also a place
07:37where the viewer follows
07:39a person that, no matter how
07:41broken she is,
07:43I think there's something that she believes
07:45and she goes to the end with it.
07:47Even making decisions
07:49throughout the story.
07:51An interesting thing,
07:53changing the subject a little bit,
07:55is that the series, after today,
07:57is even more interesting for me.
07:59For me too.
08:01Because we started to dig
08:03and talk about a lot of things
08:05that are there.
08:07Because sometimes we focus on that,
08:09we defend it, we read the script,
08:11but seeing it from the outside,
08:13we can question a lot of things
08:15in this series.
08:17I want to watch it again.
08:19Me too, me too.
08:21And listening to the partners,
08:23you start to redimension the shit.
08:25Let's film it again.
08:27Is there a second season?
08:29There's always a second season.
08:31We didn't see the end,
08:33we only saw two episodes.
08:35This series is a series of action,
08:37violence. I want to know for you
08:39how is it to handle a gun in a scene?
08:41How is it to deal with a gun?
08:43We always have
08:45a team taking care of that.
08:47Normally, we never
08:49work with
08:51real ammunition.
08:53It's abominable, forbidden.
08:55We have...
08:57It's like a kind of gas
09:00to produce a little sound pressure
09:02to activate
09:04all the action.
09:06Everyone needs to know
09:08when the shot will happen.
09:10It's a gas
09:12that doesn't make
09:14a big noise,
09:16but it puts everyone
09:18in the same understanding
09:20of what's happening in the scene.
09:22And it's all very safe.
09:24Were you invited or did you do a test with the series?
09:26I did a test.
09:28Why do you think you were invited?
09:30I don't know, man.
09:32Honestly, I can't give you an answer.
09:34I hope it's because of my work,
09:36my professionalism.
09:38When I was invited,
09:40Gustavo, the director,
09:42told me he had a great role
09:44and that he thought I was
09:46very...
09:48Actually, he told me
09:50that Raimundo has this...
09:52that the audience
09:54feels a lightness.
09:56In the first episode,
09:58we see this kindness,
10:00this smile, this pleasant thing,
10:02this empathy that Raimundo
10:04shows to the audience.
10:06So he said, man, you give me a lot
10:08in your works. I can see,
10:10no matter how hard your work is,
10:12your eyes are very present.
10:14So I think that's one of the reasons
10:16for me to do Raimundo.
10:18How were the tests for you?
10:20For me, I was doing
10:22a test for another series.
10:24And when I got to do
10:26Serginho, I was very excited.
10:28I remember the first
10:30online reading I had
10:32and Gustavo asked me,
10:34what do you think about Serginho?
10:36I said, I don't think about anything.
10:38I don't know him yet.
10:40I want to understand,
10:42but I can't tell you anything
10:44about him now, from two scenes.
10:46And maybe this has interested
10:48Gustavo in a cool place.
10:50He didn't have a ready idea,
10:52a stereotype.
10:54And then I did three tests.
10:56Two online, with different people
10:58and then I did a face-to-face.
11:00And it was a lot of fun.
11:02I also like
11:04this challenge
11:06of the test,
11:08of trying to pass
11:10this barrier and conquer this character.
11:12So that's it.
11:14It was fun. Since the tests,
11:16I really wanted to do Serginho's fire.
11:18I was like, wow,
11:21it really lit up.
11:23I had finished a series
11:25on another platform.
11:27A biographical series,
11:29Spider.
11:31And I was feeling that the streaming
11:33was really coming back.
11:35I was invited to the test,
11:37I also did three tests.
11:39I didn't have a lot of idea
11:41about Marina's plot,
11:43but I thought, from the face
11:45that she was a fighting woman,
11:47that she ran,
11:49because I wanted to do
11:51real women,
11:53brazilian women,
11:55women that we can identify
11:57with the audience.
11:59So, for me, it was a gift.
12:01What I was going to say, I was doing two series,
12:03I didn't conclude why I said I was doing
12:05for another series.
12:07Because I already had the possibility
12:09to do this other one,
12:11and I think it would be much easier,
12:13because it was much more my air profile.
12:15And I decided not to do for this other one,
12:17because it would be the result of Serginho first.
12:19I said, I'll only do it if Serginho doesn't roll,
12:21because if he rolls, I won't want to do this other one.
12:23I hope they don't hear that.
12:25No, it's all my invention now.
12:27No, it's because I wanted,
12:29I had already attached myself to the situation,
12:31to the character of Serginho.
12:33And you? Have you already died in Sea Nights?
12:35Man, my first short film,
12:37Theory about a Strange Planet,
12:39which even won two Kikitos in Gramado, in 2019,
12:41my character, Saturn,
12:43she has a death by a lightning.
12:45A lightning strikes,
12:47and she has this death,
12:49by nature, we could say.
12:51How is it like to take a shot?
12:53It's a natural death,
12:55but it's by nature.
12:57And to do the death in the series
12:59with a shot,
13:01it's a completely different energy.
13:03Because the shot is already
13:05a very strong thing,
13:07a very strong violence.
13:09Because it's someone who took the life
13:11of someone who wasn't ready to die.
13:13And to do the scene,
13:15I was inside a bag,
13:17and they close it,
13:19I think it was a heavy day.
13:21I remember I got home,
13:23I took a shower,
13:25because it's strange to see yourself in this place.
13:27It's very strange to shoot a death,
13:29and you see it closing,
13:31and you project it,
13:33it's a feeling that...
13:35And physically very difficult too.
13:37Because we always put in the characters
13:39feelings that we have already lived,
13:41that we have felt,
13:43we transpose.
13:45How is it like to take a shot?
13:47It's physically,
13:49to do it in the body,
13:51it's very difficult.
13:53It's the most tiring days of the series.
13:55The series has this background
13:57of violence,
13:59of lack of security in Rio.
14:01I want to know if you have already been robbed.
14:03Oops!
14:05Oops!
14:07I went when I was in school.
14:09I went to school twice,
14:11but I was robbed and it happened.
14:13And you?
14:15I was in São Paulo,
14:17in a very dangerous traffic context.
14:19It's getting more and more dangerous.
14:23It was a very heavy situation.
14:27What did you take with you?
14:29Cell phone.
14:31Mine was a cell phone.
14:33I still lived in Recife,
14:35and at dawn
14:37I was coming back
14:39it was around midnight,
14:41it was not dawn.
14:43There was a rehearsal that I did,
14:45it was an improvisation course
14:47that I was doing,
14:49which was from 9 am to 11.30 pm.
14:51And then at midnight,
14:53when I left,
14:55I went through a path
14:57that I remembered in the middle of the way
14:59that I said,
15:01I shouldn't have come this way,
15:03which is one of the most dangerous favelas
15:05and I hope nothing happens.
15:07And at that time,
15:09a person crossed in front of me,
15:11doing like this,
15:13as if pointing a gun,
15:15and I stopped.
15:17I remember that I had said to myself,
15:19when I saw someone passing by,
15:21I accelerated,
15:23but my first reaction was to brake,
15:25turn on the light and raise my hand.
15:27But when I saw him approaching,
15:29I didn't see if there was anything.
15:31Then I tried to accelerate,
15:33I raised my hand,
15:35I didn't see that he was pulling,
15:37I said, there's nothing,
15:39but then the other came.
15:41The other came with a metal object
15:43in his hand,
15:45I just opened the door,
15:47but they only took the things
15:49inside the car,
15:51because I realized later
15:53that there were two boys.
15:55It was the worst feeling I had,
15:57I felt powerless.
15:59Don't look at me,
16:01don't look at the characters,
16:03the work,
16:05I'd like to know,
16:07for each yes you're giving,
16:09how many no's are you giving?
16:13Look,
16:15I'd say that
16:17I've been lucky
16:19not to have to give so many no's,
16:21even though I've already found
16:23a place of maturity
16:25where it's easier to say no
16:27than it was 10 years ago.
16:29It's difficult,
16:31especially when I had
16:33a fixed contract,
16:35I had this thing
16:37of being hired
16:39and I need to support
16:41this contract
16:43by always saying yes.
16:45And today being free
16:47to choose
16:49is much easier
16:51when a project arrives
16:53and you think it won't add up
16:55or you're not
16:57in a good moment
16:59to live it.
17:01Today I've said no
17:03because I'm really tired.
17:05I came from a year
17:07where I amended
17:09one project into another.
17:11So I need this
17:13little break,
17:15I never say I'll have a sabbatical year
17:17because every time I said that
17:19it was the year I worked the most
17:21because they painted things
17:23that were really cool.
17:25Have you ever regretted it?
17:29I've never regretted it.
17:31Have you ever said yes?
17:33Yes.
17:37Bruna is the head
17:39of the gang,
17:41people associate her
17:43with BB Perigosa,
17:45but they're very different.
17:47What were your references
17:49to build a new gang?
17:51Bruna has
17:53a...
17:55I think every character
17:57starts with the body.
18:01I tried
18:03to make Bruna
18:05more vertical,
18:07more rigid.
18:09She's not so
18:11crazy
18:13about emotions.
18:15She's less passionate,
18:17she's more rational than BB.
18:19She's there because she wants to,
18:21she wasn't thrown there
18:23because of bigger circumstances.
18:25She chose this path
18:27for reasons that
18:29don't apply here,
18:31but she's there
18:33to fulfill
18:35what she desired,
18:37she knows what she's doing.
18:39So in that sense,
18:41I think it's an aesthetic resemblance
18:43to see a woman
18:45holding a gun,
18:47but in terms of motivation,
18:49Bruna has completely
18:51different motivations.
18:53In this second moment,
18:55after losing her sister,
18:57her motivation is revenge.
18:59She completely loses
19:01the center of her life
19:03because she lost her sister,
19:05who is like a daughter to her.
19:07She loses everything
19:09because she's the only person
19:11in her life.
19:13Revenge becomes
19:15her only motive.
19:17Yes, she's more sophisticated
19:19both in the costume
19:21and in the way
19:23she presents herself,
19:25because she's safer
19:27than what she's doing.
19:29Maybe she's more fearless.
19:31BB did everything she did,
19:33but she did it with a lot of fear.
