Julien Leclerq returns to his roots
In French Netflix productions, Julien Leclercq occupies a special place. Since 2020 he has been at the helm of three films: Earth and blood, Sentinel AND The wages of fear. But, perhaps because these three films differ so much in quality, we probably remember his series first Thievesbroadcast from 2021 and adapted from his film released in 2016, and worn by his favorite actor Sami Bouajila. This he experienced a global success among Netflix subscribers, and it is therefore in this format that we will soon find Julien Leclercq.
It is in old pots that we prepare the best soup and his new Netflix series, entitled GIGNseems to follow the adage. In fact, that’s all there is to it the elite force of the national gendarmerie that Julien Leclercq revealed himself in 2011, with his film The Assault. It tells of the GIGN’s assault to put an end to the hostage-taking of Air France Flight 8969 at Marignane airport in December 1994.
Tomer Sisley for the lead role
It was in an Instagram post that Julien Leclercq made the announcement, already revealing that French-Israeli actor Tomer Sisley would play the lead role of GIGN.
After BRAQUEURS, we are proud to announce my next series with Netflix: GIGN.
13 years after the release of the movie L’ASSAUT, I have the chance to find this absolutely amazing team. We will enter into their privacy. And as close to the action as possible. The series will be produced with the support of GIGN.
Series created with my writing partner Sylvain Caron and produced with my long-time partner Julien Madon.
Tomer Sisley in the lead role. The rest of the casting is underway…
The values of this group are fundamental: respect for life, commitment, esprit de corps and sense of sacrifice.
Long live GIGN! Let’s go!
With casting underway, we assume filming isn’t imminent yet. But to the extent that Julien Leclercq had filmed the six episodes of the first season of Thieves In 80 daysif it proves to be as effective for GIGN, then it is quite possible that we will be able to discover this new Netflix series during the second half of the year 2025.
