The Count of Monte Cristo: Crazy Stakes That The Film Crew Should Appreciate Your Grace For!

A lot of tattoos

Pierre Nin – the main actor of the new film version of Alexandre Dumas’ work – He already announced that he would get a tattoo if the film has surpassed 3.5 million artworks, but we’ve heard that directors, producers and other actors, including Patrick Mill, who plays the dreaded Captain Danglars, have also pledged to get tattoos.

If Pierre Nini has not yet fulfilled his bet, as Dimitri Rassam points out, the actor plans to do so anyway. He also shared sketches on his Instagram feed of what his future tattoo might look like (including a crudely drawn T-Rex as a joke).

When questioned by Anne-Élisabeth Lemoine, Dimitri Rassam explains: “He hasn’t done it yet, but we all, in a moment of abandon, made a series of bets on the tattoo that we should all get. “It was out of 5 million, so we’ll have to make do.”“

The first is the ship, and the second is Edward Philip… “Faced with the surprise of journalists, Dimitri Rasami continues “IHe has Edward Phillips tattooed on his back.

These are the first letters of our names and mean crazy.“Dimitri Rasami really cooperates Matthew Delaporte and Alexander de la Patellier Since Le Prénom was released in 2012.

Relaunching on this crazy project, which is a new adaptation of The Count of Monte Cristo, Dimitri Rassam continues: “This movie is our baby for all three of us. We were very excited and at some point there was a general abandonment of the promise of the strongest that we could dream of in cinema, at least for us in France, fueled by the desire for a cinema that echoed the films we loved. in childhood and what made us want to do this work. There were dizzying moments when we realized the risk we were taking. But this risk fed us and we really started to fear in the last section”.
