We could almost hear Louis Jouvet responding: “Weird, weird. How strange…”
According to the announcement of a casting, shared this Monday, September 11, 2023 on social networks, a film will be shot, in Draguignan, from October 23 to November 9.
When Daniel Auteuil confirmed…
Coincidence or coincidence? The period corresponds perfectly to that which Daniel Auteuil had entrusted to Var-matinin July, when he confirmed that he was directing a feature film after being seen taking pictures at the Dragon City judicial court.
He also assured to play in his next film: “an investigation, a story of trials and strong relationships between an alleged culprit and a lawyer.”
The scenario is inspired by a famous criminal lawyer from the Lille bar, Maître Mô (aka Jean-Yves Moyard), who died in 2021 from cancer at the age of 53. He shared his stories in a blogon the Internet.
Looking for police officers for court scenes
The announcement of the casting, relayed by the Var film commission, does not mention this. But she says she is looking for police officers. Of the “real people or people used to embodying them” for scenes… in a court!
The filming will last one to ten days and will be paid 105 euros gross.
To apply, the conditions are as follows: send photos taken during the day, “in natural light (full portrait, no filter, no glasses, no hat or cap)”specify their age, size, city of residence and full contact details.
Everything must be sent by email to [email protected], before September 20, 2023, specifying “court police” in the subject of the message.
Please note that no transport or accommodation expenses are provided.
The name of the film and the main actors revealed?
Ads like this, there are others on the Internet. And some of them would reveal a little more!
According to the site figurants.com, the film would be called “The Wire”. It would feature two other main actors: Grégory Gadebois and Alice Belaïdi.
The story would be that of a “man accused of murdering his wife”. Whose trial would be “focused on the relationship between the accused and his lawyer, who must defend him against all odds, and especially against himself.”
