It finally happened! Pedro Fernandez's last scene on "Hasta El Fin Del Mundo" was aired in México last night. Episode 79 saw the transition from Fernández to David Zepeda only two weeks after the former quit the Televisa melodrama. The beautiful scene had Pedro as Chava laying on his bed and reminiscing on a kiss with the love of his life Sofía Ripoll played by Marjorie De Sousa. We are transported into a beautiful natural set in the middle of greens as they share a kiss. The camera then circles around the couple and... BOOM! Zepeda appears on screen kissing De Sousa. We are taken back to the bedroom where Chava had closed his eyes and Zepeda is posing the same way Fernández was. Sofía and Chava then call each other over the phone and in the "Hasta El Fin Del Mundo" world, Chava is now David Zepeda. Watch the transition scene down below and tell us what you think!
Last week Pedro Fernández shocked telenovela fans when he announced he was quitting "Hasta El Fin Del Mundo," confirming the rumors that had plagued the production for weeks. "The truth is that it's been five months of an intense rhythm of work, I have lost a lot of weight and my doctor recommended to lower the rhythm," Fernández told Javier Poza on his Radio Fórmula show. "I need to take care of myself and it saddens me leaving the project like this for respect to my fans, but my health is first." Although the official version was that Fernández was ill, insiders have said that it was his wife that gave him an ultimatum, or it was his marriage or the production. Rumors claim the wife was jealous of Marjorie De Sousa and couldn't handle seeing her husband getting close with the Venezuelan beauty.
The same day Fernández confirmed his exit it was confirmed that David Zepeda will be taking his place opposite Marjorie De Sousa in the same role. Many had speculated that "Chava" was going to get killed in a race car accident and a Zepeda would come in as a new character and start off with a clean slate. Production decided to keep the original storyline intact and continue the love story between Sofía Ripoll and Chava. Fernández taped his final scenes last week and Juan José Origel gave us an insight on his weekly column on how the actor is going to leave the telenovela. In the scene, Salvador and Sofía will share a kiss and closes her eyes to enjoy the moment. When she opens them back up, Zepeda will be in Fernandez's place. So this turned out to be a fairy tale with the princess kissing the frog and turning into the handsome prince.
