Netflix + Sharks: If you like thrills, this is the most anticipated movie of the summer!

Attention thrill seekers! Mark your calendar for the release date of Sous la Seine, the new Xavier Gens film, available June 5, 2024 on Netflix. This action and suspense film takes viewers deep into the Seine for a breathtaking adventure in the heart of Paris during the World Triathlon Championships.

The story centers around Sofia, a brilliant scientist played by Berenice Bejo, and Mika, a young environmental activist played by Lea Levian. Mika warns Sofia about the presence of a large shark in the waters of the Seine. Like it or not, they will have to ally with Adil, the head of the river police, played by Naseem Lies, to avert the inevitable disaster.

Produced by Vincent Roget and written by Yannick Dahan, Maude Heiwang, and Xavier Gens, with an adaptation by Yael Langman and Olivier Torres, the film promises its share of spectacular scenes with a backdrop of environmental awareness. The cinematography is by Nicolas Masarti and the original music is composed by Anthony D’Amario, Alex Cortes and Edouard Rigaudiere.

Hard on Netflix

For Netflix, Sous la Seine presents a major challenge. The choice of the program at the beginning of June, two months before the Paris Games, is not accidental. Platform Ambition stands out from his previous original films, pure action and stereotypical enough to offer a film with a lot of spectacle.

This film is part of a wider strategy to offer more diverse content that appeals to international audiences as well as cold sweat enthusiasts. By aligning its resources with its ambitions and emphasizing an environmental theme, Netflix hopes to strengthen its leading position in the streaming industry amid growing competition, but it will also draw criticism.

Prepare to be immersed in the suspense of Saus la Seine, where action and environmental issues collide to create a stunning masterpiece on the stage of majestic Paris.
