George Clooney Joins 'Call My Agent!' Movie Coming to Netflix
Confirmed
In Short: George Clooney is set to star in the upcoming 'Call My Agent!' movie, adding to the cast of the beloved French series.
George Clooney is set to star in the upcoming 'Call My Agent!' movie, adding to the cast of the beloved French series. The movie, which is an addendum to the hit French language series' fourth season, sees the return of the entire cast of the fictional ASK talent agency, alongside some not-so-fictional stars, including Clooney, Eva Longoria, Laetitia Casta, Vincent Macaigne, and Laurent Lafitte.
The movie follows Andréa (Camille Cottin), Mathias (Thibault de Montalembert), Gabriel (Grégory Montel), and Arlette (Liliane Rovère) as they navigate the challenges of the entertainment industry. Andréa’s future is left undecided, but it’s no surprise to find her working as a director in the movie. Camille, now a successful agent in her own right, side-swipes her father to represent the film’s leading lady, Laetitia Casta.
While the delicate act of managing high-strung stars feels true to the original series, there is too much distance between the worlds of our agents (and former agents) to produce the same level of workplace comedy magic that made the show so successful. The movie sees the return of the entire cast of the fictional ASK talent agency, alongside some not-so-fictional stars, including George Clooney, Eva Longoria, Laetitia Casta, Vincent Macaigne, and Laurent Lafitte.
The movie is part of the fourth season of the series, which capped off in 2020. Season 4 concluded with agents Andréa, Mathias, Gabriel, and Arlette accepting the inevitable demise of ASK, and going their separate ways. The movie picks up where the series left off, with the gang back together and facing new challenges in the industry.
The movie is set to be released on Netflix, where it will be available for streaming. The cast includes Camille Cottin, Thibault de Montalembert, and Fanny Sidney, all of whom return for the fun. The movie promises to bring back the magic of the original series while introducing new elements and challenges for the characters.
