A Infância de Romeu e Julieta is a Brazilian telenovela created by Íris Abravanel, produced and broadcast by SBT and in partnership with Amazon Prime Video from May 8, 2023, and August 19, 2024. It is based on the tragedy Romeo and Juliet, written by William Shakespeare.[1]

Plot

[edit]

The plot takes place in a neighborhood called Castanheiras, where two families with different proposals for the neighborhood live in discord, divided between the Torre (Monteiro) and Vila (Campos) sides. However, Romeu (Miguel Ângelo) and Julieta (Vittória Seixas) meet, and from then on, the rival families have a new opportunity to bring peace and unity between them.[2]

Well known in the neighborhood, Julieta Campos is an adventurous and cool girl who skateboards around the area.[3] She is the granddaughter of the respected Hélio Campos (Luiz Guilherme), a renowned coach who runs the region's sports center, CEC. She also lives with her grandmother and confidant, Clara Campos (Lu Grimaldi). Meanwhile, Romeu Monteiro has been encouraged by his parents, Vera Monteiro (Bianca Rinaldi) and Bernardo Monteiro (Fábio Ventura), since he was little to play tennis and has the best teacher to give him lessons in the condominium. But he does not have the same passion for solitary sports and ends up preferring collective ones, where he can play and have fun with friends. Romeu also lives with Gláucia Monteiro (Karin Hils), his aunt and Bernardo's sister, a woman of dubious origin who uses her tricks to achieve some prestige.[4]

Twelve years ago, due to a mistake, Julieta's mother was unjustly arrested thanks to the Monteiros, who believe that she kidnapped Romeo when he was still a baby, in addition to being accused of stealing a jewel from Vera, who was with Gláucia. When they discover the problem from the past, Romeo and Juliet do not know how they will manage to stay together in the face of the rivalry between the families. News of the romance also reaches the families, who do not like the story at all and try to separate them immediately, causing various situations. Romeu and Julieta want to put an end to this hostility and try to find a solution. However, when they discover more situations involving the rivalry between the families, they realize that this may be a difficult mission, but not impossible.[5][4]

Among the parallel plots, there is a similar little group, which is composed of Ian (Miguel Soares), a boy who usually uses his imagination a lot and lives with Leon (Matheus Ueta), his imaginary best friend who wears a lion costume and is only seen by Ian, who is also considered "crazy" by other characters, Nath (Arlyane Carvalho), a nice girl who, together with Ellen (Bella Alelaf), her best friend, try to find a place to play and Dimitri (Samuel Estevam), a boy who is not afraid of anything and likes to help people, facing the Pedalzeiras, a group of cyclists composed of Muke (Gabriel Miller), Trapaça (Zaira Harue), Fê Dengosa (Antonella Dez) and Chilique (Miguel Trajano), whose objective is to dominate the park by inserting their stickers on the toys to ride bicycles and threatening anyone who crosses their territory, prohibiting the children of Castanheiras from having fun. Dimitri was initially a member of the group, leaving it after thinking better about his actions and joining Ian, Nath and Ellen, forming a group called Extraordinaries. The Extraordinaries often enter the World of Imagination, where they complete the Golden Path of the Seven Missions and enter the Great Door, behind this door, there is a bookshelf, where Faustinho must return five books.[4]

Production

[edit]

The plot is an adaptation of the original work by William Shakespeare, but without the main tragedy of the story.[7] The soap opera has artistic direction by Fernando Pelegio. In addition, it is the broadcaster's first project in partnership with Amazon Prime Video.[8]

Casting

[edit]

The first names confirmed for the telenovela were Bianca Rinaldi and João Baldasserini. In the case of the former, the telenovela marks her return to SBT, since her last work on the channel was a special appearance on the sitcom Meu Cunhado [pt] (2004). After this work, Bianca went on to star in several telenovelas on Record until 2013, even becoming one of the highest earners on the channel, when she returned to TV Globo (where she began her career as a paquita in 1990, in addition to having made a special appearance on Malhação 1997 [pt]), remaining on the channel until 2018.[9] The second participates in his first production outside of TV Globo after working on several projects at the station, one of which was Salve-se Quem Puder (2020), where he was one of the protagonists.[10] The plot also marks Felipe Roque's debut at SBT, after his stints at Globo and Record.[11]

Casting auditions began in July 2022.[12] The first names were officially announced on October 31, confirming newcomers Miguel Ângelo and Vittória Seixas as the story's protagonists. This will also be SBT's first telenovela in which a protagonist is black, since in Carrossel (2012), the character Cirilo Riveira (Jean Paulo Campos) was a co-protagonist.[13] Also selected for the cast were singer and actress Karin Hils, who returns to SBT after participating in the adaptation of Carinha de Anjo (2016) and actor Matheus Ueta, who returns to telenovelas eleven years after playing Kokimoto Mishima in Carrossel.[14]

Broadcast

[edit]

The soap opera was initially scheduled to premiere in April 2023 on Prime Video and in May on SBT. As filming progresses, the new premiere date is now set for April on open TV and streaming.[15] Soon after, the premiere date was confirmed for May 8, 2023 on SBT, at 8:45 pm.[16] The soap opera also premieres on streaming on the same day, but with the first five chapters available to subscribers. The plot also has five weekly chapters available on Fridays, with the model adopted on the 12th of the same month.[17]

The first teasers aired on February 26, 2023, during the breaks of Domingo Legal [pt].

Podcast

[edit]

Queijo com Goiabada is a podcast of interviews with the cast and members of the production of the soap opera, presented by Ana Zimerman and Nicholas Torres. The episodes are posted on TV ZYN's official YouTube channel in a premiere format on Tuesdays right after the telenovela's chapter is shown.[18] The first episode interviewed Vittória Seixas and aired on May 9, 2023, one day after the show's premiere.[19]
