In a poignant turn of events, the future of the beloved Italian television show Stasera Tutto È Possibile hangs in the balance as its charismatic host, Stefano De Martino, faces an uncertain fate. Following the emotional finale of the latest season, fans were left contemplating the show's future after De Martino's heartfelt farewell. His closing remarks hinted at a potential departure, stating, "We will see each other here or who knows where," which left viewers speculating about the show’s direction.
Francesco Paolantoni, a key member of the show's ensemble cast, has now shed light on the implications of De Martino's possible exit. In an interview with Fanpage, he asserted, "Without De Martino, there is no group from Stasera Tutto È Possibile." His words resonate deeply with fans who have grown attached to the dynamic chemistry among the cast, which includes Paolantoni, Biagio Izzo, Giovanni Vernia, and Herbert Ballerina.
Paolantoni elaborated on the significance of De Martino's role, emphasizing that the group dynamics would fundamentally change without him. "If Stefano is not there, we are not there either. The group dissolves," he explained. This sentiment reflects a profound sense of camaraderie that has developed over the years, making the show a staple of Italian entertainment.
Despite the uncertainty, Paolantoni revealed that the production has reached out to De Martino, inviting him to lead another edition of the show. "I know that the production has asked Stefano to do another edition," he stated, noting that De Martino was initially scheduled to return. However, he acknowledged the unpredictable nature of the current situation, saying, "Things are moving quickly and unpredictably for him. There are complicated mechanisms and dynamics that are accelerating. It’s all complicated."
As the cast prepares for a special reunion during the upcoming episode of Affari Tuoi on May 2, 2025, the nostalgia surrounding the show is palpable. Paolantoni expressed excitement about the reunion, describing it as a unique moment that brings together a group that has entertained audiences across Italy. "It’s a rare thing for people to come together and create this harmony that leads to something unique. We have fun first and foremost, and it seems like we’ve returned to an 'Arborean' dimension," he remarked, referencing the legendary Italian showman Renzo Arbore, known for his innovative television productions.
Reflecting on the evolution of their work, Paolantoni drew parallels between Stasera Tutto È Possibile and his previous experience on Indietro Tutta, another landmark program. He noted that during the earlier show, there was a clear awareness of being part of something historic. "At the time of Indietro Tutta, there was more awareness of participating in something that would go down in history. In this case, we didn’t even think about it. We were just focused on our fun and that of the audience," he said.
As fans eagerly await the special episode, the emotional weight of the show's potential changes looms large. Paolantoni expressed surprise at the intense public reaction to the show's conclusion, admitting, "We didn’t expect that our farewell would trigger such anguish. It’s a testament to the bond we’ve formed with our audience." This connection underscores the importance of De Martino's role and the group's collective identity.
While the future remains uncertain, Paolantoni is optimistic about the potential for De Martino to return. He mentioned the possibility of The Jackal, a popular comedy group, stepping in to host if De Martino does not return. However, he emphasized that such a change would not hold the same weight for the original cast. "If there’s an edition without him, we wouldn’t be there either. It’s especially for Stefano. For us, he is the group. We have become that group. If he’s not there, the group doesn’t exist anymore," he reiterated.
This heartfelt commitment to De Martino and the show's legacy highlights the unique bond the cast shares and their dedication to preserving the essence of Stasera Tutto È Possibile. As the cast gears up for the reunion on May 2, fans can only hope for a resolution that allows De Martino to continue leading the show. The sentiment is clear: without him, the magic that has captivated audiences may be lost.
As the date approaches, viewers remain hopeful that the beloved host will return, ensuring that the laughter and camaraderie that defined Stasera Tutto È Possibile will continue to resonate in the hearts of fans across Italy. The upcoming special episode promises to be a celebration of the show's rich history, regardless of what the future holds.
