Stênio Garcia: ‘I didn’t do harmonization to look cute’

The face is still a little swollen because of the facial harmonization done almost two weeks ago, but Stênio Garcia says that he has liked the result more and more when he looks in the mirror. in conversation with F5 this Monday (19), the actor says he doesn’t care about the comments about the intervention and recognizes that the initial irritation due to the negative repercussions of the procedure turned into indifference. “The opinion of others never interested me. And it still doesn’t interest me”, he comments.

At the age of 91, Stênio rejects the idea that the procedure was carried out for the sake of vanity. “I didn’t do the harmonization to look cute. I did it to go back to work and that’s it. I’m available in the market and I want to be remembered for a certain role. Everything I do with my body is intrinsically linked to my profession”, he explains.

The actor reports that he has been doing exercises with his wife Marilene Saad in front of the mirror and already notices a difference. “I feel that my expressions have become lighter and even improved in the articulation of speech”. When asked if he considered it unfair to have to go through this situation to go back to work (his last work on TV was in the series “Filhas de Eva” on Globo, in 2021) even with all his history in teledramaturgy, he responds in a similar way. direct way. “No. It’s part of the game.”

Stenio, who was fired from Globo three years ago, says he has seen some episodes of “Carga Pesada” on Globoplay, one of his works most talked about by the public, and follows the 7pm soap opera on Globo, “Vai na Fé”. He chose José Loreto, Lui from Rosanae Svartaman’s plot, as one of the actors who has most attracted his attention from the new generation.

“I like his intensity. He’s a good actor and I’d like to work with him on television”, he says he has two proposals for the theater, but no invitation for television. I hide it from anyone.”
