Forced to clarify things after a misunderstanding. Indeed, this Tuesday January 16, 2024, Kev Adams
was questioned by our colleagues from Tele-Leisure
on one of the most divisive subjects of recent weeks: Gérard Depardieu
. The comedian recently indicated that he considered the actor “a great actor” and this earned him a lot of criticism. Particularly since the 75-year-old actor has been the subject of controversy after the broadcast of Further investigation which was dedicated to him on December 7, 2023.
Present at the Alpe d’Huez Festival, despite his recent hospitalization, for the promotion of the film Retirement home 2in which Gérard Depardieu appears a few seconds after playing in the first one, Kev Adams clarified his thoughts. “I had the misfortune to say that he was a great actor, the next day in the press they said that I defended him”he regretted at first before ensuring: “I don’t support him in any way.”. “We took the liberty of putting a flashback, but that in no way means that we support Gérard Depardieu”he then justified himself.

Kev Adams respects the actor but doesn’t ‘support’ him
Subsequently, the 32-year-old actor indicated that “the only people” that he is thinking about at the moment are “the victims”. “Women who are verbally or physically abused every year.” Since Gérard Depardieu shocked in the Further investigation which was dedicated to him, certain actors assure that “things” were seen on the film sets. In fact, our colleagues wanted to know if this was also the case on the filming of Retirement home with the sacred monster of cinema.
“Of course not”assured straight away Kev Adams before specifying that, otherwise, he would have “obviously acted”. “These are behaviors that are no longer acceptable in our time. I have cousins, I was raised by women, there are things that I do not accept, no matter how great an actor you are. is. There is a limit in life, and when this limit has been exceeded”he added before concluding that “nothing excused it” for his slips if there were slips.
