Matías Novoa was the actor who led “The Lord of the heavens” in the seventh season, when rafael amaya he fell into various addictions and had to go to rehab, so he became someone very loved by the public, but unfortunately that story came to an end very abruptly.
The Chilean had arrived in the sixth season of the fiction to play Amado Casillas, Aurelio’s brother, and by the seventh he was already the center of everyone’s attention. Although the viewers were used to something else, this new role fit very well in the story and earned the affection of the public, the channel workers and their other colleagues.
His affinity with people was so great that in Telemundo they wanted to continue counting on him and the fans imagined a season with the two Casillas brothers at the helm, but this did not happen. Matías Novoa did not reach an agreement with the Latin channel and walked away from the production, leaving Aurelio alone again.
For the eighth season, the absence of Amado Casillas was going to be noticeable at once because he had just starred in the previous edition and now, suddenly, he was notso the production, in one of the recent chapters, decided to explain his disappearance from fiction in an unconventional way: killing him.
THE DEATH OF AMADO CASILLAS IN “THE LORD OF THE HEAVENS”
In the chapter of last Monday, January 23, “The Lord of the Skies” showed a scene between Diana Ahumada and Ismael Casillas, who were talking and the name of Amado Casillas came out. It is there that the young man explains that his uncle diedbut that was not all, since details of how that happened were given.
As we will remember, At the end of the seventh season of the telenovela, the Casillas family was saying goodbye to Doña Alba at her funeral, when several of them were poisoned with a drug called fentanyl, so the writers took advantage of that to explain the death of Amado.
“The Beloved did not deliver her”begins by saying Ishmael, which produced Diana’s disbelief, who replied: “How come he didn’t free her?”.
“I’m sorry cousin, but the Beloved was the first to fall. He brought all the doses with those gringos and tried to help all the people, but…”related Ismael, implying that the character of Matías Novoa was also poisoned.
This way of having disappeared Amado Casillas has not gone down very well with the spectators due to the incongruity of the factssince at the end of the previous season everyone witnessed that he had not had contact with the drug.

THE REASON WHY MATÍAS NOVOA DID NOT CONTINUE IN “EL Señor de los Cielos”
Months before the premiere and prior to the start of the recordings, in an interview with the portal People in spanish, Matías Novoa confirmed that there were negotiations to continue in the story, which came to fruition.
According to what he expressed at that time, there was no agreement, so I don’t know that the character of Amado Casillas will not participate in the eighth season of the successful production. What’s more, he may never be seen again, since his role died in fiction, although one never knows…
“I’m not going to be in ‘The Lord of the Skies’. I love the action and all that and I think that in the seventh I already began to feel the character because I had an abrupt appearance in the sixth. In the seventh season I was able to start to feel the character and enjoy it. I would have been happy, but an agreement was not reached, neither in time nor in history.”commented the Chilean.
