The end of The Adventures of Balthazar, which came to an end on TF1 on Thursday night after five seasons and almost 40 episodes, doesn’t mean Tomer Sisley is done with the series. far from there.
The 48-year-old actor, who decided to stop Balthazar, in which he played the lead role, chose to devote himself to other projects and is currently shooting the next part of the saga in 2008, Largo Winch 3. In which he will find his billionaire adventurer hero, alongside newcomers such as James Franco or Clotilda Hesme.
But Tomer Sisley, who will soon be in the credits of the TF1 TV movie Comme mon fils, which he co-produced, is not idle and is simultaneously working on two series projects for the first page.
The Par Amour series is still in development
For several years now, he has been writing the TV series Par Amour with screenwriters Baptiste Gurden and Vladimir Howlett, about which he exclusively told us in an interview in 2019: “It’s a true love story with a thriller background and based on a true story”.
In a few lines, Par Amour tells the story of Ben and Laura, who promised each other love and devotion at the age of 15, before tragic events drove them apart. But 25 years later, Ben, who became a police officer after working with DDASS, will do everything to find Laura, who has developed in the middle of the mafia, and everyone who hurts her, who paid, will always pay. he loved
A project that remains very relevant according to Tomer Sisley, even if the series takes time to develop: “I went through hell growing up with love (laughs). So I’d rather take years and be good than a few months and be bad.”.
Whether or not the actor will play Ben in this potential new series doesn’t seem to be decided yet, even if Tomer Sisley admits that the channel seems to want him in the lead role: “Let’s see if I will have the main role in the series or not. Some people still want it”.
New police fiction over for Balthazar?
While promoting the fifth and final season of Balthazar, Tomer Sisley, recently featured in Vortex on France 2, also made us a more surprising admission: TF1 asked him to come up with the idea of a new series of locked-in cops. .
“I’m currently working on a procedural series at the request of TF1, so I’ll try to bring them that”Tomer Sisley told us. Who did not deny the question of whether the idea was to find a “replacement” for Balthazar, who remained a success of a very large audience of the channel, who must surely repent at the end of such a hen with golden eggs.
With the recent shutdowns of Profiling , Alice Nevers and Section de Recherches , and the slightly disappointing performances of Vise le Coeur , TF1 really needs another detective series to fill its Thursday night box, which, for now, only has HPI Shining in reality, which airs every year. in the spring and will return to the air in May for the highly anticipated Season 3. The case will follow.
