The author Manuela Dias adapted and gave new nuances to Solange Duprat’s plot in the remake of Anything goes. Now under the skin of Alice Wegman –the character was played by Lidia Brondi in the 1988 version–, the journalist will have a new job. If before she was a fashion producer for the influential magazine Tomorrow, now she will be director of a content agency with the same name. The character will also suffer from diabetes in the story.

The information comes from columnist Carla Bittencourt, from the Leo Dias portal. The change took place to accompany an update in the ambitions of Maria de Fátima –played in this version by Bella Campos and, in the original, by Gloria Pires. The villain will dream of become a digital influencerand no longer a model. Your antagonist, then, would have to have a related profession.

Furthermore, the character needed to work in an influential vehicle, which would have an impact on the market in which Maria de Fátima intends to enter. The author’s interpretation is that fashion magazines do not have the same relevance as almost four decades ago. Tomorrow will be considered one of the largest content agencies in Latin America within the plot.

Manuela also gave a “social merchandising” tone to the character. Solange will have diabetes in the story, and will talk about the topic at various times. The journalist will use insulin and explain the importance of this and other types of treatment. Some scenes will also emphasize the journalist’s care for her diet.

At the same time, the journalist will blame herself for having neglected her health in order to keep up with the demands of her work. If everything goes well, this will be one of the character’s internal dilemmas. The author wrote the first block of chapters using this idea, but is still at the mercy of possible changes or edits ordered by Globo’s top management —just like what happened in Mania de Você.
