Can you believe it's been 12 years since Gabriela first aired?! (12 years, 4 months, 18 days to be exact.)
Why in the world did Gabriela end?
When Gabriela came to an end after 1 year in October 2012, million viewers tuned in to say goodbye to Nacib Achcar Saad (Humberto Martins) and Gabriela da Silva Saad (Juliana Paes). And since then, they have been itching for a reunion.
Would a Gabriela reunion disappoint people?
Gabriela aired from 2012-2012 and is considered one of the most influential TV shows ever on pop culture. Although no original episodes have been shot since, it has remained a regular feature on many station's schedules. But Martins said he's not sure if Gabriela would work today. “I don't want to see old Nacib Achcar Saad,” he told a journalist (Martins turned 63 in April). “Everyone’s going to have different vision of what the character is like, so to have that materialize is going to disappoint most people,” he added.
Still hoping for a Gabriela movie?
In a recent interview, Antônio Fagundes (who played Ramiro Bastos) said he can't imagine a Gabriela reunion hitting the big screen. “I'd rather people go, ‘Oh, please! Please!’ than ‘I can't believe you did that. It was horrible.’”
Co-star Henri Castelli (who played Rômulo Vieira) has also previously explained, “It would be terrible to do something and have it not be good,”. “It was so terrific ... If we did a Gabriela movie and it sucked, then it would, you know, blemish it.”
On the subject of whether there could be a Gabriela film, Giovanna Lancellotti stated : “I think it's a bit of a case of ‘the book is better than the movie’.”
What about a Gabriela reboot?
Recasting Gabriela for a modern reboot. Hollywood is known for remaking remakes of films or tv series and the studios might think it would be great to bring the story back with a new set of characters.
Be it in the form of a Gabriela reunion, a Gabriela movie, or a Gabriela reboot, if you had to start filming today, who would you cast in what role?
