He deserves the world. “Long live Wagner Moura”, he published Sarah Oliveira.
“In my mind, Wagner Moura won and only my opinion matters”, stated the former BBB, Gil do Vigor. “The Oscar statuettes didn’t come, but Brazil is already awarded for taking our culture so far and for remembering what should never be forgotten. Congratulations to the cast of The Secret Agent, to Wagner Moura for his performance, to the direction of Kleber Mendonça Filho and to everyone. Victory for our cinema, yes!”, he posted Marcelo Serrado.
