The film La Tortue with Catherine Deneuve in costume by Bernadette Chirac has some surprises in store for its cast. For example, this actor used to comedies was chosen for the role of David Dwyer. This is…
This is one of the most unexpected shoots of the year, and it looks like there are still some surprises in store for this project!
Actor and comedian Artus, who met to promote the film Liar with Tarek Boudali, directed by Olivier Baroux, confirmed to us that he was part of the cast of La Tortue, a film dedicated to the couple created by Jacques and Bernadette Chirac.
Artus will exactly play the role of former judoka David Douyet, who was fond of Bernardet Chirac as part of the 1989 solidarity campaign, Operation Yellow Pieces, for which the latter worked so hard.
Artus, here’s the movie I Love What You Do that came out last spring
“The information is out, so I’m not going to spoil anything. This is a biopic of Bernadette Chirac– he said to our microphone. But I’m not playing Jacques Chirac, I’m playing David Douire at yellow games and all that. I had a few days to shoot; It’s cool, the actors are great and I was so happy to be in this very beautiful movie“, he added.
The synopsis of the film is closely guarded. All we know is that La Tortue will star Bernadette and Jacques Chirac, with Catherine Deneuve and Michel Villermoz in those roles. We also know that this will not be an official film or an authorized biopic, as the Chirac family will not be in favor of the project. As we recently reported, via Paris Match, Claude Chirac would take the initiative and launch: “They may not know that Bernadette is still alive…”
La Tortue is co-written by Leah Domenach (Jeune et Golri co-writer) and Clemens Dargent (OVNIS co-writer). Leah Domenach, daughter of renowned journalist and political commentator Nicholas Domenach, is directing the film, which has no release date yet.
