Kaamelott : a success in the midst of Covid
After years of development, Alexander Astier finally managed to achieve the film Kaamelott: First part. A first work following the series concluded in 2009 after six seasons. The feature film was released in theaters on July 21, 2021 and sees King Arthur reluctantly returning to the island of Great Britain. Although he does not wish to return to the throne, conquered by Lancelot, Arthur, supported by his former sympathizers of him, has no choice but to lead the revolt to bring peace to the kingdom.
Although the film was released in a complicated context with the covid pandemicdistributor SND was pleased to see it done more than 2.5 million presences in France. An a priori score sufficient for Alexandre Astier to be able to develop the sequel. Also, in March 2022, he announced that he would begin filming Camelott 2 in spring 2023. But for that, it all depends on how the scenario plays out.
An artificial intelligence to help Alexandre Astier
Alexandre Astier talked about it during a masterclass held at the Geneva International Film Festival (via BFM extension). During this event, he provided amazing information about his way of writing Camelott 2. Indeed, Alexandre Astier created for it artificial intelligence. Software on his computer that he called “Command KV2 Robot dot“,”written in Python (a computer language, ed) and which tells it what to do“.
(He tells me), ‘here is this and you’re missing this, and you have to bring this, and this actor who should be in a situation like that, in fact he’s not there yet so he should be there that day, etc’.
A tool that allows him to verify above all the consistency of his scenario. Jokingly, the author introduces this “KV2 Robot point command” as a true friend for nerds.
He is my friend. Is he nerd enough for you? We’re not far from the mental hospital, okay? And there I start to get some respect from my own teams. They say to themselves, ‘Well, he’s crazy, but sometimes it’s not bad.’
fans of Kaamelott can hope that with this tool the shooting can start as soon as possible. It will be an impressive production because, as he explained last year, he would like to make Camelott 2 in the manner of Kill Bill. OR “twice two hours, separated by 4-5 months off“.This promises!
