Career

Debuting as an actress at thirteen, Fernanda's career spans more than four decades in theater, television and cinema.[6]

At 16, Fernanda had her film debut in Inocência, by Walter Lima Junior.[7] Alongside Walter Salles, Fernanda was met with critical acclaim for her roles in Foreign Land (1994), Midnight (1998) and I'm Still Here (2024).[8] Fernanda received numerous awards in her career, including the Cannes Film Festival Award for Best Actress prize in 1986 for the drama film Love Me Forever or Never by Arnaldo Jabor.[9][10] In 2003, she wrote her first script for O Redentor (2004), with her brother Cláudio Torres.

In her long theatrical career, the monologue A Casa dos Budas Ditosos, based on the novel of the same name by João Ubaldo Ribeiro,[11] debuted in 2003 reaching more than one million spectators.

On television, she acted in numerous popular comedy series, such as Os Normais and Tapas e Beijos, produced by TV Globo.[12] As a presenter, she developed the project Minha Estupidez and Bicho Homem for television, and the podcast The Playlist Of My Life, as an interviewer and scriptwriter, on the Deezer platform.[13]

In 2007, she began writing for newspapers and magazines as a columnist, publishing a weekly column in the newspaper Folha de S. Paulo since 2010. In 2014, Fernanda released her first novel, The End, which sold more than 200,000 copies in Brazil and was translated into seven languages. In 2017, she published Glory and Its Litany of Horrors, both published by Cia. Das Letras. Fernanda adapted her first novel into a 10-chapter minisseries for Brazilian streaming service Globoplay.[14][15]
