We no longer present Lambert Wilson. The 64-year-old French actor has starred in many films and even made a name for himself internationally. In particular for his role as the Merovingian in the famous film “Matrix Reloaded” of Wachowski released in 2003. But some also forget that the actor made an appearance in “The Boom 2″ in the role of Félix Maréchal. A role that he never forgot and that he wanted to mention when he came to the show In the retromoderated by Déborah Grunwald.
An interview in which the actor also mentioned his career, but above all an anecdote, which occurred between him and Sophie Marceau on the set. If today, he is grateful to have been able to give the reply to the 56-year-old actress, his state of mind was not the same when he shot certain scenes of Claude Pinoteau’s film. “When I shot with Sophie Marceau, she struck me”, he confided to Déborah Grunwald. And no, the actress did not strike him in the literal sense of the term, but rather by his talent.
Lambert Wilson, not at the level of Sophie Marceau?
Because at “13 years old, she was so good in her sneakers”, he continues. Lambert Wilson continued to praise Sophie Marceau and notably pointed the finger “the instinct for the correctness of situations”, actress. An instinct which has also greatly embarrassed the one who tackled the Cesar ceremony in 2020.
Indeed, he admits having found himself “completely embarrassed, clumsy, wrong”. A complicated situation for him that still hurts him today: “I can’t bear to see the scenes of La Boum because I see my embarrassment. I see that I’m not comfortable in front of the camera and that I’m not comfortable in this kind of so-called situation normal.” But who knows, maybe without this embarrassment and this role in one of the most famous French films, Lambert Wilson could never have had the career that everyone knows him to be.
