Netflix has finally released First Looks from the long-awaited Call My Agent! The Movie, which will go live on the streamer on September 10. Set five years after the hit TV show (known as Dix pour cent in French) concluded its fourth season, the film will see a reunion of our favorite French talent agents, with all of the major players returning… alongside guest stars including George Clooney (a big fan of the show) and Eva Longoria.
Camille Cottin, the show’s breakout star, will reprise her role of Andréa Martel, now a director, while French TV stalwart Thibault de Montalembert and beloved character actress Laure Calamy are back as the dynamic duo of Mathias Barneville and Noémie Leclerc.
Fanny Sidney’s Camille Valentini, Andréa’s protégé and Mathias’s daughter, is also pictured in the fresh new photos, presumably having worked her way into the industry after slaving away as a junior agent in the show.
Grégory Montel is back as the neurotic Gabriel, Andréa’s partner in crime.
And we can’t forget, of course, the zany Nicolas Maury as Hervé, Gabriel’s assistant, and Liliane Rovère as the agent Arlette.
Netflix also released a scene from the film over the weekend, which shows Noémie attempting to help Andréa find a new star for her film, which is set to begin production in 12 days, after Andréa’s directorial debut is thrown off track. Unfortunately, it appears that the only people available are the disgraced actor Gérard Depardieu and the French fitness influencer Tibo InShape… not exactly the cream of the crop. While there are no English subtitles currently available, you can watch the clip on YouTube with French subtitles now!
