Vale Tudo’ Remake Reaches Odete Roitman’s Murder as Whodunit Takes Center Stage

Producers safeguarded the outcome by filming ten alternate finales, with only author Manuela Dias and director Paulinho Silvestrini aware of the version that will air.

Overview

  • In the Oct. 6 episode, Odete Roitman is found dead in her suite at the Copacabana Palace hotel.
  • The narrative shifts to a police inquiry that will review hotel surveillance and take depositions from five suspects: Marco Aurélio, Celina, Maria de Fátima, Heleninha and César.
  • The identity of the killer will be disclosed in the Oct. 17 finale on TV Globo.
  • The death scene includes a costume tribute to Beatriz Segall, with Débora Bloch’s look inspired by the 1988 original.
  • Audience engagement is surging through polls and cast guesses, and production has said the remake will not repeat the original ending in which Leila was the assassin.
