The Masquerade's Conclusion: Globo Failed to Prevent The Trip's Termination

Remember Breno Moroni's captivating performance as Adonay in the successful Brazilian Fantasy series 'A Viagem' (1994-1995), broadcast by Globo TV? To this day, Adonay's character continues to spark curiosity with each rerun of the series.

Despite numerous rumours and fan theories, there is no known evidence that a specific individual proposed an alternative ending for Adonay's character, where he would remove his mask and reveal himself as a celestial spirit, unveiling a 'heavenly people' with visual effects. Similarly, such a scene has never been officially confirmed or documented as the series' finale.

Background

'A Viagem' revolved around a group of young characters journeying through mysterious objects to save the universe. Adonay was the enigmatic companion, always masked, whose true face remained a secret – neither revealed in the series nor in the subsequent miniseries that aired in 2009.

Rumours and Speculation

Various rumours and fan theories circulated about Adonay's potential ending, including speculation about the unveiling of his true form. However, no officially broadcast version with such a scene has ever been confirmed by the production team or the author.

It is not known whether regular viewers, scriptwriters, directors, producers, or actors ever submitted such an official proposal or implemented it.

Conclusion

Fans have often imagined alternative endings, with the internet teeming with such speculation, particularly for cult series with open endings. It is possible that the aforementioned idea originated from the 'fan community,' but it cannot be traced back to a specific author, producer, or crew member of the series. In interviews, making-ofs, or official documentaries, such a scene is not mentioned.

If you have more precise information (e.g., from forums, articles, or books where someone is quoted), please share it – I can then conduct targeted research!

Intriguingly, Breno Moroni revealed in an interview with Jornal Midiamax that he had proposed an alternative ending for Adonay's character. However, the production of 'A Viagem' rejected his proposal. Despite this, 'A Viagem' remains one of the milestones of Brazilian teledramaturgy, with Breno Moroni's memorable performance as Adonay adding to its spiritual and symbolic character.

Currently, 'A Viagem' is being aired on TV Globo during prime time, providing an opportunity for new audiences to watch this classic Brazilian teledrama. The airing of 'A Viagem' may reignite interest in the enigmatic character of Adonay, played by Breno Moroni, and possibly spark renewed discussions about his proposed alternative ending. The series is scheduled to air at 5:15 PM, from Monday to Friday.
