A nugget like Mariana is a rarity in Brazilian bohemian circles. A girl from a simple San Paulo family, not connected with the acting circles, achieved everything in her life without anyone’s protection. Her parents were strongly against her choice. And Marie herself did not dream of another profession. For the first time she announced her desire to become an actress at the age of six, playing in the children's play Cinderella. Of course, no one took the baby seriously. Pope Jose Prado Nuzzi, with the words: “All actresses in childhood read a lot of books” – brought to the house a complete collection of works by Brazilian children’s writer Monteiro Lobato. At the sight of forty volumes, the girl was horrified. But she diligently studied everything from cover to cover and still remembers her father’s act with warmth and tenderness: it was then that she first felt a taste for literature and still loves to read. The next time the future actress firmly stated her calling when she turned 12. The parents gave up: they enrolled the girl in acting classes and allowed her to play in the theater and act in advertising. The first role appeared three years later - in the episode of the series "Decide yourself" company "Globo" and after Marie immediately went to study in Europe on the exchange of colleges. Returning home, she played in the telenovela “Charm” of SBT, where she met her future lover Cayo Blat (Tiago in “Air Castles”). Finally, at the age of 17, she entered the Faculty of Cinema of the University of São Paulo, paid for the first semester and then an invitation came from Denis Carvalho to audition for "Air Castles".
Now the actress is literally bathing in glory. No sooner had she left for New York at the end of "Ughi Ughi" than reports rushed that director Wolf Maya was waiting for her in the theater with the play "Invincibles" and a couple of authors of the just finished novel "The Raven and the Rose" dream to get her in their new series. Plus, for her already scored the main role in the feature film “Meeting in the store” where Mariana’s partner will be Danton Mello. So, the young star of projects is incomplete. But this does not mean that she forgot about the main thing: when leaving for Rio, the girl promised her father that one day she would definitely return to the University of São Paulo and continue her studies.
