Currently in promotion for the release of Alibi.com 2, Philippe Lacheau confided that he would “kiffer” to interpret the hero of another franchise, after Nicky Larson.
And if Philippe Lacheau slipped into the costume of one of the most famous franchises of French-speaking cinema? Guest of the program Les Enfants de la télé on France 2 this weekend, Philippe Lacheau was asked about one of the films in the news, Asterix.
The presenter Laurent Ruquier pointed out to him that the universe of Asterix would suit him well, and especially the costume of the blond and mischievous performer!
To the question “would you like to make Asterix and interpret it?”, Philippe Lacheau says: “interpret it, it’s true that it would make me kiffer“. The guests were amused by the remark, Gérard Jugnot pointing out that Elodie Fontan could play “the bard who sings so well“, meaning ironically the fact that she would sing as badly as the character of Assurancetourix!
This remark by Laurent Ruquier regarding the character of Asterix is only an idea, and not something in the process of being put in place. In any case, Philippe Lacheau was enthusiastic about this eventuality, to say the least.

Asterix and Obelix: The Middle Empire, the latest film in the franchise, with Guillaume Canet as Asterix, has been in theaters since last Wednesday, and has already exceeded one million admissions, according to the latest estimates. At the end of the weekend, the film totaled 1,637,948 admissions, previews included.
For the record, Philippe Lacheau is releasing his new film this Wednesday, the sequel to Alibi.com, always surrounded by his faithful band, and actresses and actors like Arielle Dombasle, Nathalie Baye, Gérard Jugnot and Didier Bourdon.
The pitch of this sequel is as follows: After closing his agency Alibi.com and promising Flo that he would never lie to her again, Greg’s new life has become quiet, too quiet… Not for long! When he decides to propose to Flo in marriage, Greg is up against the wall and must resolve to introduce his family. But between her crook father and her ex-charm movie actress mother, it is very likely to ruin her future union. He therefore has no other choice than to reopen his agency with his former accomplices for an ultimate Alibi and to find more presentable false parents… To discover at the cinema from Wednesday February 8, 2023.
