HPI on TF1: Does Mehdi Nebibu (Karadek) really speak all these languages?

Every week at HPI, Morgan Alvaro (Audrey Fleurot) amazes us with her various talents. Both a consultant, a wedding planner and a rubber champion, this colorful character has many possibilities due to his high intellectual potential, which the audience will discover in the episodes.

But in the final episode of HPI Season 3, which airs this Thursday, June 29 on TF1, another character reveals his hidden talent: Karadec. Two colleagues get to know each other during a romantic dinner. That’s when Morgan discovers that the commissioner can speak many foreign languages.

German, Russian and Italian seem to have no secret for him. While watching this episode, we are tormented by the question: did Mehdi Nebibo have to learn these three sentences by heart, or does everyone really speak this language?

Does Mehdi Nebibo speak several languages?

Unsurprisingly, Mehdi Nebibu is a true polyglot and speaks French as well as English, Italian and German. Born in France in 1971, the young man moved to Berlin in 1989, where he did odd jobs.

Three years later, he moved to Italy, where he became an animator at a holiday village in Tuscany. After studying carpentry in Milan for two years, he returned to Berlin, where he studied directing at the German Academy of Film and Television in Berlin.

If he wasn’t destined for a career in comedy, it is a meeting with a Greek student who is looking for actors for casting, Filippos Tsitos, that will lead him to this career.

After this first successful experience, Mehdi Nebibo landed a role in Hollywood in 2005 for Steven Spielberg’s Munich, before filming Lies of State for Ridley Scott in 2008.

The unique opportunities it opens up in the geopolitical context of the early 2000s.This is what Kolush said: in our work you need at least a little talent, hard work and then luck is a big factor.,” he told the Allociné microphone last year.

“Before that, from the fall of the Berlin Wall until 2001, all the “bag boys”, they were Russian. And since 2003, people from the Middle East, North Africa or Arab countries have suddenly been bad. (…) There was a lot of terrorist work, and that’s why I had access to American films or something. If this geopolitical context hadn’t happened, it wouldn’t have happened to me.[deBerlin)et2001tousles”bagguys”c’etatindesRussesEtàpartirde2003d’uncouplesméchantsetatindesgensduMoyen-Orientd’AfriqueduNordoudepaysarabes()Ilyaeubeaucoupdejobsdeterroristsetc’estpourçaquej’aieuaccessàdesfilmsaméricainsouautresSicecontextegéopolitiquen’avaitpaseulieuçanemeseraitpasarrivé[deBerlin)et2001tousles”bagguys”c’étaientdesRussesEtàpartirde2003d’uncouplesméchantsétaientdesgensduMoyen-Orientd’AfriqueduNordoudepaysarabes()Ilyaeubeaucoupdejobsdeterroristesetc’estpourçaquej’aieuaccèsàdesfilmsaméricainsouautresSicecontextegéopolitiquen’avaitpaseulieuçanemeseraitpasarrivé“
