François Rollin paid by the “slingshot” on the set of Kaamelott, the actor does not mince his words concerning the production

We’re talking to you about a time that people under the age of twenty cannot know… Following the success of Bruno Solo and Yvan Le Bolloc’h on M6 Coffee Camera, interrupted in December 2004, is the series Kaamelott who has taken up the torch for a dazzling success too.

January 2005, the series telling the humorously stories of King Arthur and the knights of the round table arrives on the chain, to disappear four years later. An immediate success which gave an idea to its creator, Alexandre Astier. An adaptation to the cinema. Unfortunately for fans, it will be necessary to wait until November since its release has been postponed, because of the Covid-19.

This 1er June, the actor playing the King Loth was invited on the set of Non Stop People to talk about the series. Known to be very frank, François Rollin did not mince his words about Kaamelott and production. At the microphone of Jordan De Luxe, the actor notably mentioned the fact that this series is not initially seen as simple ” stand-in waiting for a good program to replace Coffee Camera, ” It’s a phenomenon, and like all major television phenomena, it didn’t happen thanks to television officials, who are generally people for whom I have little regard, But by accident. ” Directly questioned by the presenter about his salary, the actor did not go through four paths, ” For Kaamelott, during the whole series, we were really paid with a slingshot, with the promise of compensation in the event of a film. We were paid 350 euros per day of shooting. And on the film it did not catch up because of various economic difficulties and the much higher salaries of some stars, like our friend Christian Clavier! ” That is clear.

Animosity towards Christian Clavier? No, not for François Rollin, “ But I don’t hold it against him. When an actor asks for a lot of money, it doesn’t bother me because this is the stupid law that producers have introduced : that is to say if I manage to pay you twenty balls for a job which is normally worth three hundred, I give you twenty balls and a kick in the buttocks. Christian Clavier has not always eaten white bread and there is no reason to give them gifts. One thing is certain, not everyone has their franchise.
