(Today's inaugural "Throwback Thursday" comes from our dear friend and Diogofanfriends blog contributor Jodie, aka @jodiedebb, so please show her some love over on Twitter or in the comments section here. Thanks!)
Good morning/afternoon/evening my fellow DiogoFanFriends –- wherever in the world you are! I am truly honored to write the first “Throwback Thursday” blog! Our aim with Throwback Thursday is to bring you something that Diogo did before his work on The Bible Series.
Today’s Throwback Thursday comes from 2009. It’s a movie called “Star Crossed.” (Thanks to the lovely Liliana (@msliliana) for sending me this video!)
It’s a modern day Romeo & Juliet story about 2 people, Ines and Paul, who fall in love but are on opposite sides of a huge rivalry between 2 of Portugal’s football teams -- Invicta and Castelo. Our lovely Diogo plays Hugo Pereira, Ines’ cousin. The movie is about half in Portuguese and half in English. We get to see a little of Diogo’s bad side, and even get to see him play some soccer!
Hope you guys enjoy!
Star Crossed ("Amor em Jogo")
