Another beautiful day on the Croisette, this Friday, May 20, 2022. As since last May 17, as part of the Cannes Film Festival 2022, films are presented to the public. And every day, personalities ignite the red carpet. Like Anne Hathaway sublime in front of her companion Adam Shulman or Eva Longoria who from year to year still causes so much sensation. And today is the movie Le Petit Nicolas: What are we waiting for to be happy? (in theaters on October 12, directed by Amandine Fredon, Benjamin Massoubre) which was broadcast, the opportunity to return to childhood.
He is one of the stars of the film and therefore could not miss this climb of the steps. The actor Alain Chabat (who doubles the character of René Goscinny) made the trip. Radiant and smiling, he posed in a blue suit and white shirt. And as the weather is good, he hasn’t forgotten his sunglasses. At his side was present Laurent Lafitte (who doubles Jean-Jacques Sempé) who opted for the same outfit. But he instead bet on a cap.
Let’s not forget Simon Faliu (Le Petit Nicolas), elegant in a suit and black bow tie, as well as Martine Gossieaux (who doubles as Madame Sempé). The author Anne Goscinny, the director Benjamin Massoubre and Ludovic Bource who took care of the music also made the flashes crackle of the photographers at the famous Palais des Festivals and Congresses of Cannes, with or without David Lisnard (the Mayor of Cannes ). A hundred schoolchildren dressed in the colors of Petit Nicolas also created the event.
This new part of the stories of the young schoolboy is presented at Cannes out of competition. And it is different from the previous ones since it is an animated film. He returns to the genesis of the character born from the imagination of Jean-Jacques Sempé and René Goscinny.
