    • Trivia
      Star Domingos Montagner sadly drowned to his death at the San Francisco river while swimming, on September 15, 2016. His co-star Camila Pitanga was reportedly saved by him, as he avoided grabbing her hand and consequently pulling her into the water. Pitanga still tried to grab him out of the river's rogue current, unsuccessfully. She witnessed Montagner being dragged by the water and disappearing. The actor was 54 years old.
