“Today I will no longer let myself be done”, Fabienne Carat looks back on her meeting with Gérard Depardieu

Gérard Depardieu

continues to spill ink since the broadcast of an issue of Further investigation dedicated to the actor. After Sophie Marceau, Carole Bouquet or Kev Adams, it’s the turn of Fabienne Carat, known for having played the character of Samia Nassri in the television series More beautiful lifeto speak.

This Tuesday, January 16, 2024, the one who was “alongside him in a sequence of the film 36, Quai des orfèvres”, confided in the columns of TV Magazine. If she claims not to have “had no problem with him”, the 44-year-old actress believes she has distanced herself from the sacred monster of cinema.

Generally, I have a lot of instinct. Each time there has been a situation in my career that could lead me to minefields, I was leaving, even if it meant losing roles”, she explained. And to continue: We miss things, that’s for sure, but we keep face. I happened to suffer psychological abuse on set. Today, I wouldn’t let it happen anymore. I am no longer prey.”

The day before, it was the actress Stéfi Celma who spoke about the affair on the airwaves of France Info. “Impunity means no. The abuse of power, the abuse of notoriety, stop. Maybe 50 years ago it was something that could have happened, but today that’s no longer the case.” she shouted. Like Fabienne Carat, the latter kept her distance from the actor. “Gérard Depardieu is the person who expresses themselves in the rudest waythat I was able to meet of my life. What I told myself quite quickly was that I had to, so that the filming goes well, that I stay at a safe distance”.
