It has been several years since the seriesAlex Hugo is on the air. On the poster of this one, we can find Samuel Le Bihan who plays the role of Alex Hugo, a former great Marseille cop. His character chose to leave the city and the violence, which he no longer supported, in order to isolate himself in the mountains. He holds a position in a rural police and solves investigations with the help of Angelo Batalla, played by Lionel Astier. The third and last episode of the eighth season will be broadcast this Tuesday, November 1 on France 3. That the fans of the program are reassured, it has been renewed for a ninth seasonwhich will be broadcast in 2023. As previously explained Dauphine Libere, a first episode was shot in June, the second in July and the last one was shot in September. If this series is a great success, Samuel Le Bihan claims to have no precise explanation to give: “I don’t know what the success of a fiction really depends on if not the viewer’s appetite for one or another of its aspects”. he first explained in the columns of Figaro before adding: “In Alex Hugo, in my opinion, there is something terribly human and therefore terribly universal. The man is alone. Alone facing the mountains and facing his destiny”. See you in 2023 to see the rest of the adventures.

The ninth season will be marked by a big change… The departure of Lionel Astier. The interpreter of Angelo Batalla will be present for the first episode to bid farewell to his playmate, Samuel Le Bihan and to the viewers. “It’s a departure that was decided without any conflict“, he first explained in our columns. “But I had been playing Angelo Batalla for seven years and I think I had done the trick. It was not renewed enough for my taste and I had the impression of being in repetition“, he continued. What was complicated for the actor was also the pace of filming which was very intense. “At first, we were doing two episodes a year. There are now four and it cuts me off from my other projects“, he had revealed. A thoughtful departure which had greatly pained Samuel Le Bihan, even if he had affirmed to understand this decision. “I don’t want it replaced. I don’t want someone to come and be in Angelo’s place, especially to give him the opportunity to come back if he wants to.“, he confided. In the columns of Télé Loisirs, he specified that this new season will highlight “the lack of Angelo. We see his picture on his desk, we talk about him, we miss him“, concluded the actor.
