Quem quer ser um milionário? is the Brazilian version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?, hosted by Luciano Huck as part of Domingão com Huck (formerly Caldeirão do Huck). Top Prize is R$1,000,000.
Initially, there was no Fastest Finger First until 2021. Starting in 2022, there is a preliminary Fastest Finger First with six contestants.
Seasons 1 and 4-5 used a standard Rave intro (with additional sound effects in Seasons 4-5) that was a hybrid of Chile 2010 and Poland 2017. The other seasons use the logo transition also used in the Kazakhstani and Sri Lankan versions as its intro.
In Seasons 1-7/2nd episode of season 9, the Rave soundtrack was used. Since Season 8, the Classic soundtrack is exclusively used, with the sole exception of the Q10 win cue, provided the safety net has not been set there (similar to in Sri Lanka and Azerbaijan).
