Bruno Fagundes’ last work on television was in the soap opera Cara e Coragem, from 2022

Son of Antônio Fagundes, Bruno Fagundes followed in his father’s footsteps and is also an actor, but reveals that it is not just because he has a father with an established career in television that doors open for him. The 35-year-old artist recently opened up about the lack of opportunities after the success of a play and once again spoke about the difficulty of getting work.

“I didn’t do any tests this year, 2024, can you believe it? Me and 90% of the actors. Talking to more people, from executive production to [produção] casting, they say everything is a bit at a standstill,” he said in a recent interview.

“That’s why I can’t choose. Any character is a character at this point in the game. There is no big or small role. It’s funny that people think I choose whether or not to do a soap opera because I’m Fagundes’ son and that’s never been true. It’s been a 16-year career. Many assume that I am part of the ‘nepobaby’ phenomenon, but it has never been a reality”, he added.

Bruno’s last work on television was in the soap opera Cara e Coragem, from 2022. In the same year that he was on open TV, the actor spoke publicly about being a gay man for the first time and, since then, he has not returned to the small screen.
