(Montreal) Filming began Tuesday for a new police comedy imagined by comedians Rachid Badouri and Mehdi Bousaidan, which should be broadcast on the Crave platform in 2025.
Double-dealing will feature two amateur actors of North African origin (Badouri and Bousaidan) who usually play characters at the police academy, but who are hired to infiltrate the world of organized crime.
Josée Deschênes, Fabien Cloutier, Maxime de Cotret, Martin Drainville, Catherine Bérubé and Douaa Kachache are in the cast of this brand new series.
