Michaël Youn and Jenifer in a Christmas romantic comedy: it’s “Superpapa” to be discovered in mid-November on TF1 in which a father hen can hear his child’s thoughts.
We told you about it a few months ago: a new TV film, called Superpapa and starring Michaël Youn and Jenifer, was being filmed for TF1. This week, the channel finally announced the broadcast date of the fiction. To discover Superpapa, you will have to wait until next Monday, November 13, at 9:10 p.m.
As a reminder, in Superpapa, Michaël Youn plays the character of Christophe, a father who has been quite a control freak since the death of his wife, four years previously. When Christophe is informed of a withdrawal among the parents who are accompanying his son Victor’s (Gabriel Diefenthal) snow class trip, he jumps at the opportunity to join in, much to the dismay of his 15-year-old son, but also from Marina (Jenifer), the music teacher adored by the students. Christophe is reassured to be able to watch over his son during this school trip. Until the day when a strange gift falls upon him: Christophe can now hear the thoughts of teenagers, including those of his son. Christophe will then very quickly become disillusioned…
Michaël Youn and Jenifer, two faces already seen in several TF1 fictions
With Superpapa, the TF1 audience finds two familiar faces from headline fiction. In 2018, the singer landed the leading role in Traqués, a TV film with Joffrey Platel (already seen in Tomorrow Belongs to Us). The following year, Jennifer was one of the headliners of the mini-series Le temps est assassin, alongside Mathilde Seigner, Grégory Fitoussi, and Fred Testot.
For his part, the actor has already played several secondary characters for TF1 fiction, such as in Les bracelets rouge (2018), The day I burned my heart (2018), A French affair (2021), Fugueuse (2021 ), or Don’t Abandon Me (2021). Superpapa will thus be his first main role in a headline fiction.
Michaël Youn and Jenifer will not be the only known faces to share the poster. The cast of the romantic comedy includes Virginie Hocq, Ludovik, Juliette Mabilat (Tomorrow belongs to us), and Mamadou Haidara (Lupin).
