After Armando’s murder, the fifth season of the Netflix adolescent drama ‘Elite’ examines the aftermath of the crime. Ari meets Samuel after going through a horrible incident that nearly killed her, and the two of them decide to restart their relationship. When Menca discovers a SIM card that connects her father with Armando, Benjamn’s fate is thrown into peril. Samuel confesses to killing Armando in order to protect his closest buddy and Benjamn, a revelation that shocks everyone at Las Encinas. As the season progresses, showing yet another gripping mystery, it is impossible not to note the disappearance of Guzmán Nunier and Ander Muoz from the cast of characters on screen. What happened to them? Is it true that Miguel Bernardeau and Arón Piper have left the Spanish show? Let’s have a look and see! WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD.
What happened to Guzmán and Ander?
Guzmán and Ander are on a globe tour at the present time. Ari, who is also romantically involved with Samuel, becomes Guzmán’s girlfriend in the fourth season of the show. Ari’s attraction to Samuel has a negative impact on him. Meanwhile, Ari learns that Armando has been abusing her sister Menca, which she reports to the authorities. Ari confronts him, only to be injured in the process. As a result of witnessing the incident, Guzmán pursues Armando and kills him with a flare pistol. Guzmán is still haunted by the trauma of Armando’s death. He comes to the realization that he needs to get away from Las Encinas in order to free his thoughts and find tranquility. Furthermore, he recognizes that Ari is in love with Samuel and that he must withdraw from Ari’s life in order to care for his best buddy.
Guzmán begins to consider the possibility of traveling throughout the world. During his voyage, he is likely to have paid a visit to his ex-girlfriend Nadia Shanaa, who is currently studying in New York. Guzmán does not want Armando’s death to have an even greater psychological impact on him than it already has, so he chooses to continue traveling. Ander also joins Guzmán on his arduous journey across the country. Even though he has always desired to embark on a long journey, he initially chooses against it due to his close friendship with Omar. Omar, on the other hand, recognizes his partner’s ambition and grants him permission to accompany Guzmán. Omar tells Ander that he will be there when he arrives, leading them to decide to pursue a long-distance relationship.
Miguel Bernardeau and Arón Piper: Did They Leave Elite?
Yes, Miguel Bernardeau and Arón Piper did indeed depart ‘Elite’ prior to the fifth season’s premiere in 2015. Bernardeau announced his retirement from the show in July 2021, and he conveyed his appreciation to the cast and staff. “Hello, my name is Miguel Bernardeau, and for those of you who have already watched the Elite Season 4 finale, I wanted to say farewell and send you a big hug,” he wrote on his social media accounts. To which the actor responded, “I’d like to express my gratitude to everyone on the Elite team, including the production and direction teams, as well as my castmates, both those who are still here and those who aren’t, whom I’ll always hold in my heart and with whom it’s been an immense pleasure working with you,” he said.
Despite the fact that Bernardeau and Netflix have not publicly mentioned the reason for his departure from the show, it is likely that the actor left to pursue other new ventures. Bernardeau appears in three episodes of HBO Max’s ‘Dafne and the Rest,’ ‘Playa Negra,’ and ‘La ltima,’ all of which play crucial roles. The actor is also a member of the cast of ‘1899,’ a new show from the makers of ‘Dark,’ which will premiere in the fall. Arón Piper also announced his departure from the show in July 2021, albeit he did not provide a specific reason for his decision.
“Being a member of Elite has been an amazing journey for me, one that has been incredibly lengthy and difficult, but also really rewarding, to be honest.” We were given a second chance, and a whole new world was opened up for us in the cast… like a family,” Piper explained. “The last sequence I filmed was a heartbreaking experience. I sobbed uncontrollably like a little boy. “A chapter comes to an end, but a new one begins,” he continued. Following his departure from the show, Piper appears in the television series ‘Once Upon a Time in Euskadi’ and the film ‘Proyecto Emperador.’
Because the show’s narrative can fit Guzmán and Ander at a later time, the performers could perhaps return in the future, even though Bernardeau and Piper have left the adolescent drama. If the two friends decide to call a halt to their voyage and return to Las Encinas, it is possible that we will see the return of the adored actors and actresses.
