A sequel to Netflix’s biggest French success?

Update: According to Netflix, a sequel to Sous la Seine has not yet been officially ordered and the project is still in early development. Filming is not planned in 2025.

With 177 million hours watched since last June, Xavier Gens’ disaster film Sous la Seine has created a veritable tidal wave on Netflix and the rest of the world, to the point of becoming the most-watched French production on the platform since then. launch.

Since then, we’ve been wondering about the possibility of a sequel, with its open ending. Questioned several times on the subject, his director pulled himself together and gave himself time to think about whether the second part would really make sense. But it’s Bérénice Bejo, headliner of Sous la Seine, who gives us the answer today.

in the given interview tribune Where he talks about his past and future projects, the actor confirms that Sous la Seine 2 will definitely see the light of day. And it provides valuable information on how to get it:

“In September 2025, we will be filming Sous la Seine 2. It won’t be an easy sequel. It’s another movie, very different…but still with a shark.”

Will we meet in 2026?

Xavier Gens – if he’s very attached to the project – and his team seem to be giving themselves a year of pre-production, sure to continue writing the script, which we don’t yet have details on.

if it is not “Easy Sequence” and “from another movie”We can only wonder what form this Sous la Seine 2 will take.

Because the last scene – the shark-infested Paris underwater – started something interesting. We understand that Lilith and her children are spreading throughout the world…

And with shooting scheduled for 1 year, we shouldn’t expect to see the film until 2026, or even 2027 if the post-production time is long. But we can hope that the platform will already plan its launch, which this time will not coincide with the Paris Games.

Now it remains to be seen if Sous la Seine 2 will have the same success as the first part…
