Giovanna Grigio will be the protagonist of the adaptation of the novel “Perdida”

Disney announced this Thursday (19), that the actress Giovanna Grigio will be the protagonist of “Perdida”, adaptation of the best-selling novel by the Brazilian writer Carina Rissi. According to the studio, filming has already begun and the film will make its debut in Brazilian theaters in 2023.

The first book in a series of 6 volumes, with more than 700 thousand copies sold in Brazil alone, tells the story of Sofia (Grigio), a connected, progressive, independent girl who is terrified of the mere mention of the word ‘marriage’. The only novels in her life are those in the literature of Jane Austen. After using a strange cell phone, something mysterious happens and she is transported to a different time, which resembles the universe of classic novels by writer Jane Austen in the 19th century. Having no idea how to get back home, Sofia desperately tries to find a way to return to the 21st century as quickly as possible.

That’s how she ends up being taken in by the Clarke family and, with the help of the helpful Ian Clarkewhich will be lived by the actor Bruno Monteleone, embarks on a frantic search for clues that can help her solve this mystery and return to her much-loved modern life. What she didn’t expect is that her heart would be involved with this gentle gentleman.

In addition to having Giovanna Grigio (“Rebel”, “The Five”) and Bruno Montaleone (“Secret Truths 2”), the cast will also have Nathália Falcão (“Sorry”), Bia Arantes (“God Save the King”) and Luciana Breads (“The Cordial Animal”).

“Lost” is directed by Katherine Chediak Putnam and co-directed by Dean Law. The script is signed by Karol Bueno and Luiza Shelling Tubaldini. Co-production is by Star Original Productions and distributed by Star Distribution.
