four years later Nicky Larson, Philippe Lacheau and his band are back at the cinema. On February 2, 2022, viewers will be able to discover the new comedy Despite himself superheroes, which once again brings Fifi’s Band together on screen. Monday evening in Paris, the film crew gathered at the Grand Rex for a joyful preview. The opportunity for Elodie Fontan to pull out all the stops!
All smiles, elegant in her black trouser suit Elie Saab, the 34-year-old actress posed on the photocall, alone, but also with her companion, who is none other than Philippe Lacheau. The two actors have been together for six years now. A romance that they preserve from media attention, as evidenced by the ultra-secret birth of their son Raphaël, in December 2019. However, the lovers willingly display their pretty complicity on the red carpet, as was already the case during of their visit to the Alpe d’Huez Comedy Festival a few days ago.
In La Bande à Fifi, there are also Tarek Boudali and Julien Arruti. Other actors appearing in Despite himself superheroes were also present at the Grand Rex on Monday evening: Alice Dufour, Jean-Hugues Anglade, Chantal Ladesou (who came with her husband Michel Ansault), Régis Laspalès, Paco Boisson, Georges Corraface… The actress Alice David was also there, as well as Vincent Desagnat and his companion Mathilde Vernon, Tomer Sisley and his wife Sandra (see slideshow).
In this new comedy freely inspired by the heroes of Marvel and DC Comics studios, Philippe Lacheau plays the role of Cédric, an apprentice actor in trouble, who finally lands his first role in a superhero film. One evening, when he borrows the filming car, he is the victim of an accident which causes him to lose his memory. When he wakes up, dressed in his vigilante costume and surrounded by the film’s accessories, he is convinced that he has become the character of the film with a perilous mission to accomplish. But is not a hero and even less a superhero who wants… And even less Cédric. Starting tomorrow in dark rooms!
