Cantona almost naked at Atlantis Télévision
TRENDIER THAN EVER, ATLANTIS TELEVISION RECEIVED ERIC CANTONA
Trendier than ever, Atlantis television received Eric Cantona on set for a very artistic strip that you’ll be able to watch exclusively on a public channel very soon.
Of course, he did not avoid the taking a picture in the photo booth with his local fan club after.
ERIC CANTONA: BEING FRENCH, IT’S BEING REVOLUTIONARY FIRST.
The former international football player Eric Cantona said Tuesday that being French is not only to sing the “Marseillaise” or to read Guy Môquet’s letter, but first and foremost, be revolutionary upon a system which forced some people to live “in the streets”.
“Being French, is it the duty to speak French, sing the Marseillaise, read Guy Môquet’s letter? This is being dumb!” he said, being asked about his opinion on the debate around the national identity, during the presentation to the press of his book of pictures of people ill housed conducted for the Abbé Pierre’s Foundation. “I’m not saying that singing the Marseillaise is being dumb, but building all of this (the national identity, ed. note) on it…” he specified.
“Being French, it’s being revolutionary, first (…) We cannot endorse everything that’s happening” added this grand son of Spanish and Italian immigrants, member of the Friends Comity and godfather to the Foundation.
Politicians “raise debates just before the elections. Everybody knows it but (…) we are actually helping them because that’s what they want” he said. “So, let’s stop talking about it, and let’s talk about some more serious and really bad things”.
Talking about his work of photography of French people without any decent roof over their heads, he judged “inacceptable to see this in a rich country”.
“What worries me”, he resumed, “is that there are people who see this misery but get used to it”. Whe get used to this system, to see people in the streets, to everything our TV says, to the politicians’ manipulations, to the cramming” he declared.
“We have to fight against ourselves, against our biases, against the easiness of some ideas”, and, “stop thinking it’s part of the décor”, he said.
ERIC CANTONA: THE THEATRE, A NEW CHALLENGE LOOKING LIKE A GAMBLE
The actor and former football star Eric Cantona is playing for the first time on stage at the Marigny Theater in Paris in “Facing paradise” of Nathalie Saugeon: a challenge according to his lover Rachida Brakni, who realizes her first solo directing.
As a sign of popularity in England for the former attacker of Manchester United in the 90’s, talked about by Ken Loach in a movie “Looking For Eric”, presented at the last Cannes Festival, the English press showed an unusual interest for a Parisian play in the last few days.
Without “King Eric”, 43, this two-actors play (with Lorànt Deutsch, a familiar figure in private theater) signed by a contemporary author unknown and in a little theater (311 places) would certainly not have taken all the attention from a very busy Parisian season.
The theatric baptism of Eric Cantona, under the direction of his wife Rachida Brakni (33 on February 15) helped the play to stand out. Both actors met on the shooting of “l’Outremangeur”, out in 2003, and Rachida Brakni flirted with the envy to bring Eric Cantona into her artistic field. She is a former student of the Conservatory, and shined on stage, particularly at the Comédie-Française where she was a regular (2001-2004), even winning a Molière for the theatrical revelation (in 2002, along with a Cesar of best feminine hope).
“I really wanted to put Eric Cantona on stage, I wanted to be the first to do it: egoistically, I wanted to be the one helping him discovering his passion for theater” she explained to AFP
On stage at Popesco, Eric Cantona will play Max, a prisoner in the ruins of a building that just collapsed. Hurt, he manages to contact a voluble man, Lubin (Lorànt Deutsch), who could get out of the debris but at the expense of his unfortunate companion.
“They find themselves in a complicated situation which brings them to look themselves in a mirror and see what sense they gave to their life”, analyzes Rachida Brakni, who talks of a closed place with every element to a psychological drama and a kind of suspense.”
the director had “no worry” concerning Eric Cantona’s capacity to blossom on stage. “With his personality and his aura, I told myself he knew what to do. More so because he is a former athlete, he’s not afraid by a lot of work and discipline”. Even with 12 parts in movies (since 1995), the former international is not really prepared for a difficulty specifically theatrical, the one “being without a safety net’ every night, admits his lover.
During the long rehearsals, Eric Cantona was worried “with doubts, just like everyone”, she underlines, “but it’s someone who’s not afraid of challenges, he likes to gamble. I think he is going to be transcended by stage fright”.

ERIC CANTONA’S BIOGRAPHY
Giving birth to Eric Cantona on May 24, 1966, his mother wouldn’t have think he was going to change football. Simply. The young man from Marseille joined the formation center in Auxerre, where he learns a lot before realizing his big debut with a pro team in 1983. In 1986, his great season gets him his first international selection. He wins the Europe Promising Championship in 1988 and signs directly a contract with Marseille. In august, unhappy not being selected by Henri Michel, France’s coach, he wont hesitate to publicly insult the coach. It’s the first newsworthy demonstration for Cantona, whose life will be punctuated by those declarations and gestures full of sincerity.
In January 1989, during a friendly match with Marseille, Canto as he is nicknamed, gets benched. Unhappy, he throws his jersey on the floor, which signs the end of this adventure in Marseille. He then joins Montepellier-Hérault with which he wins the France Cup. After an aborted return to Marseille because of a serious injury, he goes to Nîmes. Eric Cantona lets his nature speak, and during a match particularly hard, where arbitral decisions don’t suit him, he delicately disagrees with the referee, throwing him a ball to the face. The federation suspends him for a month, Canto answers through TV, and the Federation extends his suspension… Because of resentment or pride, the player breaks his contract and decides to end his career.
But his fans didn’t want that, among them, Michel Platini who persuades him to continue his career in England. He signs in Leeds, in January 92 and wins the England championship. He then becomes the favorite to the supporters. But his relations with the directors are not the same, and he leaves Leeds in December 1992 for Manchester United. He helps bringing he club back on the podium, winning multiple titles. He then becomes “King Eric”. Elected best player ever in Manchester United, the troubled child of French football didn’t loose anything of his nature. On January 25, 1995,in front of TV cameras, he does a “mawashigari, circular foot kick” on a supporter of the other team who had the audacity to insult him. Far from apologizing, The King had this answer that made his legend: “When birds follow a boat, it’s because they think fishes will be thrown into the sea…”.
A true icon, Eric Cantona quickly becomes the favorite to brands. He then appears in a lot of advertising campaigns, which was a sign for his later career. At 30, and after an ultimate champion title, the Marseille’s boy retires definitely to dedicate himself to his two passions: painting and cinema.
We then find him in “Le Bonheur est dans le pré” or “Mookie”. In 1998, he shines in “Les Enfants du Marais” where he befriends Michel Serrault and Jacques Villeret. He has the main character in “l’Outremangeur”, along with Rachida Brakni, whom he weds on June 16, 2007.

MIREILLE DARC POST PRODUCES IN ATLANTIS TELEVISION
MIREILLE DARC MAKES A NEW DOCUMENTARY ABOUT ESCORTING.
To Christophe Koszarek’s demand, JARA PROD, producer of “Médias, le magazine” on France 5, the comedian will dive into the very close world of escorting. Mireille Darc goes to meet people, men, and women, transsexuals who practice it.
Away from poetic images of beautiful women with billionaires, this documentary shows that escorting has largely evolved and is now a solution for everyone. Mothers, students, seniors confide in Mireille through testimonies that helps understand the different faces of escorting.
Synonym of prostitute for some, little job for other, unique way to survive or even a real enjoyment, it appears in the movie that it exists as many definition of escorting as there are people practicing it. Each of them justifying their own arguments: humans or economics. Getting closer to escorts, Mireille Darc takes a look without judging, on this activity in full expansion and wishes to show that escorts are normal citizens, who we know and have a shadow: another life.
This troubled universe, full of charms and paid sex, was already an object of Mireille Darc’s directing.
Indeed, she directed a documentary on the pornographic universe, A life classified X. Her work on escort girls will be her 10th documentary, still on delicate topics.
This new documentary will be broadcast around the end of the year, late in the evening on France 3.
« Red Zone » : provisory title
Diffusion : documentary series “Déshabillez-nous” on France 3
Length: 52’
Director : Mireille Darc
Mireille Darc’s biography
Some star stories are full of accidents, some other are not. Mireille Darc’s journey (born as Mireille Aigroz) looks like a well-deserved success story and helped with invisible helping winds.
Born in Toulon on May 15, 1938 in a family that already counts 2 boys, this daughter of an horticulturist from Switzerland (she discovered in 2007 that he wasn’t her real father, the real one was named Edmond, was a marine on the Amiral-Charner and died in Indochina during the second World War), and of a grocer mother new really early how she wanted to live her life: she wanted to become an actor. She consequently gets into the Conservatory of Dramatic Arts of her town, where she wins the Excellency price the year of her bac. In 1959, Mireille Darc comes to Paris to achieve her dream. After only a few monthes of little jobs and some modeling, she gets the main part in La Grande Brétèche of Claude Barma. From 1960, the movie industry likes her, and reveals her to the public in Les Distractions of Jacques Dupont.
As often in those amazing careers, an encounter becomes a lot more important than others: it’s George Lautner who will be her Pygmalion, directing her in 13 movies and making a star out of her. Galia, created in 1965, is the real beginning of her career and glory. Mireille Darc will part in 30 movies during her career. The shooting of La Grande Sauterelle in 1966 will give her her nickname: the grasshopper. Not long after playing for Godard, in 1968, on the shooting of Jeff, of Jean Herman, Mireille Darc meets Alain Delon: they will share 15 years together and will often reunite on screen (l’Homme Pressé, Mort d’un Pourri, Les Seins de Glace, Borsalino), and on TV (Franck Riva in 2003) or on the wood of theaters (Sur la Route de Madison, 2007), even after their divorce.
During the 70’s, Mireille Darc shoots movies on an elevated rhythm, for and with the greatest (Deray, Molinaro, Lautner, Pirès): her participation in both movies of Le Grand Blond with Pierre Richard will turn her into the sexy and popular hero. During the next decade, she takes some time apart the movie industry to dedicate herself to photography, television and theater.
Unfortunately, this beautiful time is not easy and Mireille Darc has to go through some rough years: a really serious car accident, an open-heart surgery, and her separation with Alain Delon… At the end of the 80’s, she goes towards directing (with La Barbare) and the medico-social topics (she signs some documentaries for Envoyé Spécial of Des Racines et des Ailes, for example on organ transplant, prostitutes, people with cancer…) She loses the second love of her life, the writer and journalist, Pierre Barret, who died tragically.
In 1996, she meets the architect Pascal Desprez, who she is married with now. During the following years, Mireille Darc comes back to the screen, becoming a must in the summer sagas: Terre Indigo, le Bleu de l’Océan, les Coeurs Brûlés, les Yeux d’Hélène. In 2005, she becomes a godmother to the association LA Chaîne de l’Espoir, and she gets the title of Chevalier de l’Ordre de la Légion d’Honneur the next year directly from Jacques Chirac’s hand, president of France. She published her autobiography in 2006 “Tant que battra mon Coeur”.
LOULOU, OSS 117 AND BRICE DE NICE… EDITING IN ATLANTIS
Jean Dujardin came to Atlantis: pro inside the studio, and even more after.

Loulou, alias Jean Dujardin can be happy! In 2009, he was the best paid actor in France.
First woman on the podium, Sophie Marceau is just behind Dany Boon with 2, 9 million euros of fees.
Biography
Jean Dujardin begins his life as a shimmer and locksmith.
It’s during his military service that his talent is revealed: the army will be a great source of inspiration to him.
He came to Paris, and plays in some bars, meets in the Carré Blanc Theater those – Bruno Salomone, Eric Collado, Eric Massot and Emmanuel Joucla – who he will build the “Nous C Nous” with. They create a new shows, a song simply called “Nous C Nous” and enjoy the best period of Fiesta, by Patrick Sebastien on France 2.
Between 1997 and 1998, Jean Dujardin is a three times winner of the comic category in Graine de Stars.
Making him a place on the little screen, he becomes famous thanks to his character of Loulou, he personifies from October 11, 1999 to June 2003 in the miniseries Un Gars, Une Fille with Alexandra Lamy (who will become his companion).
After an apparition in the sketches movie “A l’Abris des Regards Indiscrets” (2002) and he embodies a Weston seller in the comedy” Ah! Si j’Etais Riche” (id.), he is offered a more important role, as the ideal man in “Toutes les Filles en sont Folles”.
His name becomes synonym of success as the box office tells with Mariages! (2003) and most of all Brice de Nice (2004), where he resuscitates his favorite character of a “surfer winner” created 10 years earlier onstage. Team mate with Pascal Elbé in the police comedy “L’Amour aux Trousses” (2005) Jean Dujardin enlarges his repertoire as an actor by playing a conveyor along with Albert Dupontel in the urban polar (2003) by Nicolas Boukhrief and by attempting an entrenchment in the history movie “Il ne faut jurer de rien!” (2005).
As he became bankable, Jean Dujardin embodied tha agent OSS 177 – which gave him a nomination at the Cesar for the Best Actor in 2007 – and offers him a completely different role, a cop wanting to find who killed his daughter, in the dark “Contre Enquete”, first directing for Franck Mancuso, co-writer of “36, Quai des Orfèvres”. In 2007, Dujardin is Octave, the crazy publicist of “99F” by Jan Kounen, from Frederic Beigbeder’s best seller.
After getting a large sum of money in “Ca$h”, Jean Dujardin appears against Jean-Paul Belmondo in “Un home et son chien” and then another “OSS 117”, the spy who blunders faster than his shadow, before putting the cow-boy hat of Lucky Luke, who shoots faster than his shadow…

Cantona almost naked at Atlantis Télévision
TRENDIER THAN EVER, ATLANTIS TELEVISION RECEIVED ERIC CANTONA
Trendier than ever, Atlantis television received Eric Cantona on set for a very artistic strip that you’ll be able to watch exclusively on a public channel very soon.
Of course, he did not avoid the taking a picture in the photo booth with his local fan club after.
ERIC CANTONA: BEING FRENCH, IT’S BEING REVOLUTIONARY FIRST.
The former international football player Eric Cantona said Tuesday that being French is not only to sing the “Marseillaise” or to read Guy Môquet’s letter, but first and foremost, be revolutionary upon a system which forced some people to live “in the streets”.
“Being French, is it the duty to speak French, sing the Marseillaise, read Guy Môquet’s letter? This is being dumb!” he said, being asked about his opinion on the debate around the national identity, during the presentation to the press of his book of pictures of people ill housed conducted for the Abbé Pierre’s Foundation. “I’m not saying that singing the Marseillaise is being dumb, but building all of this (the national identity, ed. note) on it…” he specified.
“Being French, it’s being revolutionary, first (…) We cannot endorse everything that’s happening” added this grand son of Spanish and Italian immigrants, member of the Friends Comity and godfather to the Foundation.
Politicians “raise debates just before the elections. Everybody knows it but (…) we are actually helping them because that’s what they want” he said. “So, let’s stop talking about it, and let’s talk about some more serious and really bad things”.
Talking about his work of photography of French people without any decent roof over their heads, he judged “inacceptable to see this in a rich country”.
“What worries me”, he resumed, “is that there are people who see this misery but get used to it”. Whe get used to this system, to see people in the streets, to everything our TV says, to the politicians’ manipulations, to the cramming” he declared.
“We have to fight against ourselves, against our biases, against the easiness of some ideas”, and, “stop thinking it’s part of the décor”, he said.
ERIC CANTONA: THE THEATRE, A NEW CHALLENGE LOOKING LIKE A GAMBLE
The actor and former football star Eric Cantona is playing for the first time on stage at the Marigny Theater in Paris in “Facing paradise” of Nathalie Saugeon: a challenge according to his lover Rachida Brakni, who realizes her first solo directing.
As a sign of popularity in England for the former attacker of Manchester United in the 90’s, talked about by Ken Loach in a movie “Looking For Eric”, presented at the last Cannes Festival, the English press showed an unusual interest for a Parisian play in the last few days.
Without “King Eric”, 43, this two-actors play (with Lorànt Deutsch, a familiar figure in private theater) signed by a contemporary author unknown and in a little theater (311 places) would certainly not have taken all the attention from a very busy Parisian season.
The theatric baptism of Eric Cantona, under the direction of his wife Rachida Brakni (33 on February 15) helped the play to stand out. Both actors met on the shooting of “l’Outremangeur”, out in 2003, and Rachida Brakni flirted with the envy to bring Eric Cantona into her artistic field. She is a former student of the Conservatory, and shined on stage, particularly at the Comédie-Française where she was a regular (2001-2004), even winning a Molière for the theatrical revelation (in 2002, along with a Cesar of best feminine hope).
“I really wanted to put Eric Cantona on stage, I wanted to be the first to do it: egoistically, I wanted to be the one helping him discovering his passion for theater” she explained to AFP
On stage at Popesco, Eric Cantona will play Max, a prisoner in the ruins of a building that just collapsed. Hurt, he manages to contact a voluble man, Lubin (Lorànt Deutsch), who could get out of the debris but at the expense of his unfortunate companion.
“They find themselves in a complicated situation which brings them to look themselves in a mirror and see what sense they gave to their life”, analyzes Rachida Brakni, who talks of a closed place with every element to a psychological drama and a kind of suspense.”
the director had “no worry” concerning Eric Cantona’s capacity to blossom on stage. “With his personality and his aura, I told myself he knew what to do. More so because he is a former athlete, he’s not afraid by a lot of work and discipline”. Even with 12 parts in movies (since 1995), the former international is not really prepared for a difficulty specifically theatrical, the one “being without a safety net’ every night, admits his lover.
During the long rehearsals, Eric Cantona was worried “with doubts, just like everyone”, she underlines, “but it’s someone who’s not afraid of challenges, he likes to gamble. I think he is going to be transcended by stage fright”.

ERIC CANTONA’S BIOGRAPHY
Giving birth to Eric Cantona on May 24, 1966, his mother wouldn’t have think he was going to change football. Simply. The young man from Marseille joined the formation center in Auxerre, where he learns a lot before realizing his big debut with a pro team in 1983. In 1986, his great season gets him his first international selection. He wins the Europe Promising Championship in 1988 and signs directly a contract with Marseille. In august, unhappy not being selected by Henri Michel, France’s coach, he wont hesitate to publicly insult the coach. It’s the first newsworthy demonstration for Cantona, whose life will be punctuated by those declarations and gestures full of sincerity.
In January 1989, during a friendly match with Marseille, Canto as he is nicknamed, gets benched. Unhappy, he throws his jersey on the floor, which signs the end of this adventure in Marseille. He then joins Montepellier-Hérault with which he wins the France Cup. After an aborted return to Marseille because of a serious injury, he goes to Nîmes. Eric Cantona lets his nature speak, and during a match particularly hard, where arbitral decisions don’t suit him, he delicately disagrees with the referee, throwing him a ball to the face. The federation suspends him for a month, Canto answers through TV, and the Federation extends his suspension… Because of resentment or pride, the player breaks his contract and decides to end his career.
But his fans didn’t want that, among them, Michel Platini who persuades him to continue his career in England. He signs in Leeds, in January 92 and wins the England championship. He then becomes the favorite to the supporters. But his relations with the directors are not the same, and he leaves Leeds in December 1992 for Manchester United. He helps bringing he club back on the podium, winning multiple titles. He then becomes “King Eric”. Elected best player ever in Manchester United, the troubled child of French football didn’t loose anything of his nature. On January 25, 1995,in front of TV cameras, he does a “mawashigari, circular foot kick” on a supporter of the other team who had the audacity to insult him. Far from apologizing, The King had this answer that made his legend: “When birds follow a boat, it’s because they think fishes will be thrown into the sea…”.
A true icon, Eric Cantona quickly becomes the favorite to brands. He then appears in a lot of advertising campaigns, which was a sign for his later career. At 30, and after an ultimate champion title, the Marseille’s boy retires definitely to dedicate himself to his two passions: painting and cinema.
We then find him in “Le Bonheur est dans le pré” or “Mookie”. In 1998, he shines in “Les Enfants du Marais” where he befriends Michel Serrault and Jacques Villeret. He has the main character in “l’Outremangeur”, along with Rachida Brakni, whom he weds on June 16, 2007.

MIREILLE DARC POST PRODUCES IN ATLANTIS TELEVISION
MIREILLE DARC MAKES A NEW DOCUMENTARY ABOUT ESCORTING.
To Christophe Koszarek’s demand, JARA PROD, producer of “Médias, le magazine” on France 5, the comedian will dive into the very close world of escorting. Mireille Darc goes to meet people, men, and women, transsexuals who practice it.
Away from poetic images of beautiful women with billionaires, this documentary shows that escorting has largely evolved and is now a solution for everyone. Mothers, students, seniors confide in Mireille through testimonies that helps understand the different faces of escorting.
Synonym of prostitute for some, little job for other, unique way to survive or even a real enjoyment, it appears in the movie that it exists as many definition of escorting as there are people practicing it. Each of them justifying their own arguments: humans or economics. Getting closer to escorts, Mireille Darc takes a look without judging, on this activity in full expansion and wishes to show that escorts are normal citizens, who we know and have a shadow: another life.
This troubled universe, full of charms and paid sex, was already an object of Mireille Darc’s directing.
Indeed, she directed a documentary on the pornographic universe, A life classified X. Her work on escort girls will be her 10th documentary, still on delicate topics.
This new documentary will be broadcast around the end of the year, late in the evening on France 3.
« Red Zone » : provisory title
Diffusion : documentary series “Déshabillez-nous” on France 3
Length: 52’
Director : Mireille Darc
Mireille Darc’s biography
Some star stories are full of accidents, some other are not. Mireille Darc’s journey (born as Mireille Aigroz) looks like a well-deserved success story and helped with invisible helping winds.
Born in Toulon on May 15, 1938 in a family that already counts 2 boys, this daughter of an horticulturist from Switzerland (she discovered in 2007 that he wasn’t her real father, the real one was named Edmond, was a marine on the Amiral-Charner and died in Indochina during the second World War), and of a grocer mother new really early how she wanted to live her life: she wanted to become an actor. She consequently gets into the Conservatory of Dramatic Arts of her town, where she wins the Excellency price the year of her bac. In 1959, Mireille Darc comes to Paris to achieve her dream. After only a few monthes of little jobs and some modeling, she gets the main part in La Grande Brétèche of Claude Barma. From 1960, the movie industry likes her, and reveals her to the public in Les Distractions of Jacques Dupont.
As often in those amazing careers, an encounter becomes a lot more important than others: it’s George Lautner who will be her Pygmalion, directing her in 13 movies and making a star out of her. Galia, created in 1965, is the real beginning of her career and glory. Mireille Darc will part in 30 movies during her career. The shooting of La Grande Sauterelle in 1966 will give her her nickname: the grasshopper. Not long after playing for Godard, in 1968, on the shooting of Jeff, of Jean Herman, Mireille Darc meets Alain Delon: they will share 15 years together and will often reunite on screen (l’Homme Pressé, Mort d’un Pourri, Les Seins de Glace, Borsalino), and on TV (Franck Riva in 2003) or on the wood of theaters (Sur la Route de Madison, 2007), even after their divorce.
During the 70’s, Mireille Darc shoots movies on an elevated rhythm, for and with the greatest (Deray, Molinaro, Lautner, Pirès): her participation in both movies of Le Grand Blond with Pierre Richard will turn her into the sexy and popular hero. During the next decade, she takes some time apart the movie industry to dedicate herself to photography, television and theater.
Unfortunately, this beautiful time is not easy and Mireille Darc has to go through some rough years: a really serious car accident, an open-heart surgery, and her separation with Alain Delon… At the end of the 80’s, she goes towards directing (with La Barbare) and the medico-social topics (she signs some documentaries for Envoyé Spécial of Des Racines et des Ailes, for example on organ transplant, prostitutes, people with cancer…) She loses the second love of her life, the writer and journalist, Pierre Barret, who died tragically.
In 1996, she meets the architect Pascal Desprez, who she is married with now. During the following years, Mireille Darc comes back to the screen, becoming a must in the summer sagas: Terre Indigo, le Bleu de l’Océan, les Coeurs Brûlés, les Yeux d’Hélène. In 2005, she becomes a godmother to the association LA Chaîne de l’Espoir, and she gets the title of Chevalier de l’Ordre de la Légion d’Honneur the next year directly from Jacques Chirac’s hand, president of France. She published her autobiography in 2006 “Tant que battra mon Coeur”.

Biography
Jean Dujardin begins his life as a shimmer and locksmith.
It’s during his military service that his talent is revealed: the army will be a great source of inspiration to him.
He came to Paris, and plays in some bars, meets in the Carré Blanc Theater those – Bruno Salomone, Eric Collado, Eric Massot and Emmanuel Joucla – who he will build the “Nous C Nous” with. They create a new shows, a song simply called “Nous C Nous” and enjoy the best period of Fiesta, by Patrick Sebastien on France 2.
Between 1997 and 1998, Jean Dujardin is a three times winner of the comic category in Graine de Stars.
Making him a place on the little screen, he becomes famous thanks to his character of Loulou, he personifies from October 11, 1999 to June 2003 in the miniseries Un Gars, Une Fille with Alexandra Lamy (who will become his companion).
After an apparition in the sketches movie “A l’Abris des Regards Indiscrets” (2002) and he embodies a Weston seller in the comedy” Ah! Si j’Etais Riche” (id.), he is offered a more important role, as the ideal man in “Toutes les Filles en sont Folles”.
His name becomes synonym of success as the box office tells with Mariages! (2003) and most of all Brice de Nice (2004), where he resuscitates his favorite character of a “surfer winner” created 10 years earlier onstage.
