After a year off the air, OPJ, the detective series from France Télévisions set under the Reunion sun, makes a big comeback on France 3 tonight, with Lola Devaer (Astrid and Raphael) in the only main event opening. The third season of the adventures of Clarissa, Gaspard, Jackson and others.
A continuation of the unreleased third season of OPJ, it will be broadcast during the day on France 3, Monday to Friday at 14:15 from Tuesday 2 August. And that is until Wednesday, August 10.
At a rate of two per day, fans of the series will be able to discover 14 new 52-minute episodes, divided into seven two-part investigations that promise their share of twists and turns. Both at the police and personal level.
An influential person murdered alive, a single mother found beaten and killed, a body found in an old lady’s freezer, or even a surfer survivor mauled by a dog, not a shark… OPJ Season 3 brings Clary and her team to the new and unique worlds of Reunion.
Be it in the distilleries and sugar cane fields, in the overseas student fraternity, with siblings who can’t wait to see their grandmother die, or on the lagoon and island heights.
Each investigation will shake up our police officers, who are already shaken by upheavals in their personal lives. While Commander Clarissa Hoarau (Yael Trueless) seduces her daughter’s dance teacher, she doesn’t know that the latter shares the same feelings for the teacher.
Captain Gaspard Watson (Antoine Stipe), meanwhile, sees his story with the brigadier’s medical examiner come to an abrupt end. While, on the other hand, Kelly Quate (Mariel Carabeau), the young procedural of the group, and Lt. Jackson Bellerose (Nathan Delem) are finally living in a peaceful relationship. But it came with the return of Kelly’s mother, whom she believed to be dead, and the return of Jackson’s pregnant ex.
“OPJ responds to the ambition of France Télévisions to implement its creative policy in all regions, abroad and in France.”– Public Audiovisual Group explains in a press release. “As of season 3, the series employed 86 supporting cast, over 500 extras and 96 local technicians. The team is mostly from Reunion. Participate in talent discovery”.
Before embarking on this unprecedented third installment, France 3 will broadcast the second season bonus on Monday, August 1 at 14:05, welcoming Olivier Marshall (Les Rivières pourpres) and Samir Boitard (Le Secret d’Elise) as featured guests.
As for Season 3, which consists of a total of 18 episodes of 52 minutes, it will offer a second exception investigation as a bonus next Thursday at 21:10.
Titled “Angelo,” this double episode will feature Thomas Juanetti, well-known to Nina and Sam fans, as police captain Angelo Ferrier, a free spirit with a dubious reputation who is under suspicion. Clarissa and her team are connected to the murder of a robber recently released from prison.
And another good news is that the 4th season is already filmed! A sign that OPJ still has a bright future.
