SHARKS ARE BACK IN THE SEINE IN UNDER PARIS 2 NETFLIX MOVIE SEQUEL POSTER

   UNDER PARIS 2  

THE SHARKS ARE BACK IN THE SEINE

Alexandre Aja  directs the movie sequel

After some nasty sharks have infested the waters of the Seine in the first movie two years ago making the capital of France not so romantic, shooting has commenced on the sequel UNDER PARIS 2 (Sous la Seine 2) which is set to hit Netflix sometime in 2027 and we have the stunning first poster to prove it. Berenice Bejo and Guillaume Gouix together with Nassim Lyes return to the cast. The film follows marine scientist Sophia and river police commander Adil who reunite on a high-risk mission to track down Lilith, the original predator, in the shark-infested Seine when central Paris becomes submerged.

HISTORICAL SERIES FROM FRANCE 

Some two years ago I told you that Robert Merle's 13 books long saga FORTUNES OF FRANCE (Fortune de France) is being turned into a six episode mini series by France2 with our dear Nicolas Duvauchelle starring alongside Gregory Fitoussi and Guillaume Gouix! The historical series, which used more than 750 extras in the production, aired in France last year, but it is now available on Prime Video for streaming. Check out the trailer with English language subtitles below and tell us what you think. 

 THE SERIES IS SET IN

Black Périgord, Château de Mespech, 1557. The religious wars are threatening to spread through France. Behind the ramparts of the castle of Mespech, surrounded by a dangerous, hostile and intolerant world, the Siorac family fights for its survival and its convictions. Jean (Nicolas Duvauchelle), the father, is forced to reconnect with violence to defend his ideals. Isabelle (Lucie Debay), the mother, fights to exist in a world where men make the law. Pierre (Simon Zampieri) and François (Marcel Thompson), the sons, suddenly enter adulthood, torn like their country between the Protestant faith of their father and the Catholic fervor of their mother. There is the life of a community, masters and servants, parents and children, epidemics, adversaries, battles and mourning, science and superstitions and love stories. The series is also known as The Huguenots at some places.
