Pedro Vasconcelos considered for Globo prime-time telenovela direction

Director Pedro Vasconcelos is being considered for the artistic direction of Globo’s next 9 p.m. telenovela. Although he has been away from the broadcaster since 2021, his name is highly regarded internally due to his experience with large-scale prime-time productions, such as the successful soap opera ‘Império’.

There are currently no formal negotiations in place. A final decision regarding the director is expected in the coming months as production progresses. The upcoming project is being written by Aguinaldo Silva in partnership with Zé Dassilva and Virgílio Silva, and the creative team is already working on developing the story.
