Michel Blanc previously appeared in Docteur?, directed by Philippe Mechelen, alongside Hakim Gemili.
He will also be in a new film by Swiss director Lionel Bayer. Titled La Cache, it is an adaptation of the novel by Christoph Boltanski, which tells the true story of his family. The book received the 2015 Femina prize. The plot is as follows: Christoph, 10, experiences the events of May 68 in hiding at his grandparents’ house, surrounded by uncles and great-grandmother who are shrouded in mystery. . Around Michel Blanc we find Lillian Rover, William Lebgill, Dominique Raymond. The film does not have a release date yet.
More rare in cinema in recent years, Michel Blanc explained his latest choice. “When I can do something without being stupid, I try! And sometimes I don’t feel it.“And let’s add:”I refused five or six proposals this year. I trust my intuition“, he explained in the columns of the Journal du Dimanche.
Was Les Bronzés 4 in the works?
For anyone hoping for a Les Bronzés episode 4, Michel Blanc indicated last year that it would be without him if the project went ahead. “No, I won’t participate, it’s over. This is just my opinion, beware!“*
Bronze finished! But that’s just me, beware!
and added: “This will hit the wall. First, I’m not crazy about 3, so 4 is out of the question. At our age, we seem to be hanging on branches. Jean-Claude Duce, the public has what it wants because movies are constantly on television. I am no longer him physically, morally and artistically.“
To return to directing?
He, a priori, was not going to return to directing. He was willing, but he had a lot of demand. “I want to, but not with anything. I don’t have original ideas, I can’t find anything good in the novels people send me to adapt. At my age it’s like Scrabble, counting years three times. To spend two years on a feature film, you have to really want to do it. So I’m more careful.“Michel Blanc’s last performance was “See How We Dance”, released in 2018.
