The Canal+ original creation, which launched in 2020, has since become a true phenomenon – and one of the channel’s most watched and popular series. While promoting Season 2, Frank Gastambid announced a hiatus, not wanting to rush the production of the new season.

“So far, the decision I have made is to take a break with Valide. I don’t want to get into a planning obligation, a kind of broadcasting dictatorship, where you absolutely have to provide because that’s how you’re going to do something bad.

I feel we have achieved something good and it would be a shame to lose it. I spent three years of my life on Valide. I discovered what it’s like to work on a TV series. Very vampire“- he said to our microphone in September 2021.

However, the door remained open: “I’m keeping an eye on the rap game and anything that tickles my fancy for a third season, so there’s no reason why there shouldn’t be one. But now we take a break to come back with something powerful, eventful and, above all, disappointing.“, he concluded.

As for the main cast, several names seem to have already been confirmed: Brahim Bouhleli, Saidu Kamara, Said Taghmaoui and Sabrina Ouzan, according to Télé Loisirs, will be there. Who will be the guest rappers in this third part remains to be seen.
