Globo starts 2022 by presenting news to the international market. Among the releases, audience hits on Free TV and streaming, are the telenovelas In Your Place, A Life to Die For, the second season of the Globoplay Original Series Aruanas, and the fourth season of the series Under Pressure.

The new productions, exciting stories full of drama, romance, and humor, will be also shared in an exclusive interview with Pablo Ghiglione, Sales Manager for Latin America at Globo, which is available on Globo International Distribution’s LinkedIn page.

In addition to the four launches, in 2022 Globo is preparing other new productions, such as the awaited remake of the great success Pantanal, and the romantic plot A Trick of Fate.

Starring Juliana Paes and a cast composed of great names of Brazilian drama, Pantanal is a successful telenovela created more than 30 years ago by Benedito Ruy Barbosa, who also wrote The King of the Cattle and Terra Nostra. The new version, written by Bruno Luperi, with artistic direction by Rogério Gomes (from Empire and Edge of Desire), is about a family saga that has love as the thread that conducts the dramas between Joventino, his son José Leôncio, and Juma Marruá, who will be the character that highlights nature as the main protagonist of the whole plot.

The exciting A Trick of Fate, on the other hand, is a story that will center on the love story of the young magician Davi (Rafael Vitti) and the fashion designer Isadora (Larissa Manoela), who will fall in love in times of profound changes for Brazil in the 1930s and 1940s. A story was written by Alessandra Poggi, and with artistic direction by Luiz Henrique Rios (responsible for successes like Totalmente Dreamer and A Life Worth Living).

“The international market pays a lot of attention to Brazilian productions for their quality, for their ability to boost and diversify strategies for different windows, in addition to strengthening engagement and interacting with different targets. Therefore, we have great perspectives with these releases, because they are contents that further reinforce our commitment to generating value for our partners and clients,” explains Angela Colla, Head of International Sales at Globo.
