On Sunday September 3, director and actor Mathieu Kassovitz, 56, was the victim of a serious motorcycle accident. According to information from BFM-TVthe artist was driving on the motor racing circuit of Linas-Montlhéry, in Essonne.
“Very seriously injured”, he was rushed to the Kremlin-Bicêtre hospital. According to his relatives, “the vital prognosis of the scenario writer is not engaged.” Mathieu Kassovitz, to whom we owe the cult film La Haine in particular, was doing a motorcycle course on the circuit of the autodrome.
According to The Parisian, “Mathieu Kassovitz suffered a loss of control of the motorcycle lent by the circuit in an acceleration shortly before 6 p.m. When the emergency services arrived on the spot, they considered that he was in absolute emergency. He had several open fractures.
He is conscious but suffers martyrdom. “It was decided to put him to sleep,” says a source familiar with the matter. He would suffer in particular from a cranial trauma and a fracture of the pelvis.
The actor will be showing Visions, in theaters on Wednesday, September 6. In this thriller directed by Yann Gozlan (Black Box), he plays Guillaume, Estelle’s husband (Diane Kruger). A confirmed airline pilot, she leads, between two long-haul flights, a perfect life with her loving and protective husband.
One day, by chance, in an airport corridor, she crosses paths with Ana, a photographer with whom she had a passionate affair twenty years earlier. Estelle is then far from imagining that this reunion will drag her into a nightmarish spiral and tip her life into the irrational.
We will then see Mathieu Kassovitz in Les Rois de la piste, at the cinema on March 27, 2024. The story is as follows: cook at home, Rachel, a sort of Ma Dalton, raised her sons Sam and Jérémie, and her grandson , Nathan, in the cult of the scam.

Chance or fate, during a burglary, they steal without knowing its value, a painting by Tamara de Lempicka. Celeste, a cunning and charming detective, then sets off in pursuit.
