Pedro Novaes reveals that Leticia Spiller and Marcello Novaes never separated, they just renewed their love in friendship
Aos 29 years old, the actor arrives on prime time television with stories that transcend the world of soap operas. On the May cover of Marie Claire, Pedro Novaes opens up about his family, his parents and the paths he took to gain recognition away from the shadow of his surname.
The parents never separated, they just transformed
The phrase that sums it all up came simple and direct from Pedro: “The reality is that my parents never separated. That’s it. Things just got renewed.” Letícia Spiller and Marcello Novaes, who met the public together in Quatro by Quatro, turned their marriage into something rare. What many saw as an end, the family saw as a metamorphosis.
“That love turned into something else, a type of admiration,” explains the actor. Natal, Ano Novo, birthday — it all stays together. Dialogues between parents seem like confidences between best friends. Family affection never disappeared. Levou time for Pedro to understand the privilege of this. Aos 14 years old, when he finally understood that what he was experiencing was rare, he began to be grateful.
A childhood involved in art and studio smell
Pedro grew up breathing art. Lembranças from his childhood brings the smell of Projac in his mother’s hair, acting workshops in the backyard and the adrenaline of being close to the job he would choose for life. Ele searched Letícia’s closet, waited for her to return from work, absorbed every detail of the world her parents inhabited.
What marked him most was the way they dealt with public recognition. Sempre had time for each fan, for each photo request, respectful and genuine. Essa lesson stayed. Quando was born, Spiller and Novaes were already very recognized. Para Pedro, however, all of that was normal. Ele I was born within the boom and grew up within the show.
The luxury of refusing roles and growing up
Mesmo passed tests, Pedro declined roles. Sabia that wasn’t ready. Tinha has been down to earth since he was a kid — he understood that he needed to study more, gain confidence, mature personal issues. Era a privilege that not everyone had: being able to say no.
Isso allowed him to live his adolescence in peace, without being very recognized. Quando finally arrived on soap operas, he did so with intention, without any hassles. Em Malhação, in 2019, felt internally that he had arrived. Com Garota of Momento, in 2024, things have come together harmoniously.
Chegada in prime time without living in his father’s shadow
Hoje, when Pedro sees your face on the screen in prime time, he feels something different. “Now, I feel like I have people’s recognition, not because I’m someone’s son, but because of the work I do that is moving people.” The journey took time. His own critics got in his way at times, his self-perfectionism creating holes into which he fell.
Recentemente, managed to accept himself as an actor, as an artist. Tira lessons from his parents’ experience — professionalism is everything. Decore the text, arrive on time, and the rest will follow. Cinema is the next step you want to take.
Stella is a new generation that already knows everything
With his sister Stella, 14 years old, Pedro has a dream come true: becoming best friends. Apesar from the bizarre routine between studios and recordings, he calls, invites us to eat junk food, to laugh and talk. Stella is a very literate, very informed girl. Organismo lives in dialogue with the society he lives in.
Características inherited from her generation:
- Acesso unlimited information
- Entendimento quick social issues
- Inteligência and world reading accurate
- Generational Distância smaller than the previous ones
- Visão review of contemporary reality
The inheritances of each father
Da mother, Pedro carries presence. The energy. Letícia never cared much about what others thought of her — she tried to understand what she wanted to do. Essa connection is strong. Do father, comes the practical, rational side, maturity. Marcello also lent the way he deals with relationships and work.
Pedro has a little of both, and perhaps it is this mixture that has kept him standing during the years of waiting, of conscious refusals, of self-criticism. Hoje, at 29, he finally takes a deep breath and recognizes: he’s got there.
