Capoeiras (2025)

It's hard not to laugh about the art of Brazilian dance fighting known as Capoeira, but the 2025 Brazilian Hulu original series Capoeiras treats the subject quite seriously. Based on the book A balada de Noivo-da-Vida e Veneno-da-Madrugada by Nestor Capoeira, the series stars Sérgio Malheiros and Raphael Logam as two students of Capoeira who go their separate ways after their master is murdered, but years later, reunite in an underground fighting ring. Now that they're reunited—which presumably feels so good—they realize that the only way to work through the trauma they've endured is to join forces and start doing some Capoeira together! You know how some shows are a slow burn and you've got to get through a few episodes before it starts getting good? Same thing applies here as it isn't until episode three that we get our first nudity from Fernanda de Freitas, who delivers a topless encore in the following episode!
