On March 23, Marion Game, who played Huguette in the M6 series Scènes de Ménages, died at home at the age of 84. The information about this was announced by his daughter, Virginie Ledieu, in a press release distributed by Agence France Presse.
The day after this announcement, M6 wanted to pay tribute to one of France’s favorite actors by programming a special bonus with some of Huguette and Raymond’s most iconic sketches.
The tragic death of Marion Game inevitably raised the question of the future of Gérard Hernández, her partner of more than 14 years, in the following seasons of Scènes de Ménages. Will he disappear from the series next season? Will he form a new duo with another actor? So far, the channel has been very tight-lipped about what will happen to the actor.
Marion Game replacement?
This Sunday, May 21st, Twitter set fire to the powder. A certain The-best-man-57 confirmed that the Marion Game will be “Replaced by Patrick Prejean in the 15th season of #ScènesDeMénages starting at the beginning of the 2023 academic year.”
Still, according to this tweet, the new duo would make “Some good old friends reunite“. A message that didn’t go down well with netizens who were saddened and excited to see one of their childhood voices in the series.
Because yes, Patrick Prejean, seen most notably in A Formidable Family, is best known for voicing Tigger in Winnie the Pooh and Looney Tunes.
The story, which should be taken with a grain of salt, was denied by M6. The channel associated with Allociné has indeed explained that Patrick Prejean will be well involved in Scènes de Ménages, but as a guest. Therefore, he will be in the series for a few sketches and will not take the place of Marion Game with Gerard Hernandez.
