More Info on New Film

Author: · Catagories: Films, News & Rumors, Requiem pour une tueuse

A bit more info on MĂ©lanie’s new film! As predicted, that wasn’t the final title: news sites are now reporting it as “Un Requiem pour Mister Child.” TchĂ©ky Karyo plays her boss, and Christoper Stills plays the baritone singer she’s been contracted to kill. Read a bit more below in French! The site linked below is also reporting MĂ©lanie’s character’s name as “Lucrèce.”

Est-ce d’avoir tournĂ© pour Quentin Tarantino ? On ne sait pas, mais en tout MĂ©lanie Laurent va sortir toutes armes dehors pour Un Requiem Pour Mister Child dans lequel elle jouera une tueuse Ă  gages passionnĂ©e d’opĂ©ra. Un mĂ©lange entre Kill Bill et Le Concert ?

Cette Nikita nouvelle gĂ©nĂ©ration doit Ă©videmment mener un bien un contrat : l’assassinat d’un baryton lors d’un Festival en Suisse. La demoiselle se fera alors passer pour une chanteuse lyrique, interprète du Messie d’Haendel… Et Ă©videmment, tout ne se passera pas forcĂ©ment comme prĂ©vu. N’empĂŞche, on a hâte de voir MĂ©lanie Laurent dans ce nouveau registre, mix entre film d’action et thriller politique – politique en effet, car on y croisera Ă©galement le contre-espionnage français sous couverture, en la personne de Clovis Cornillac en vrai-faux guitariste. TchĂ©ky Karyo complète le trio de choc dans la peau du patron de MĂ©lanie Laurent.

Film and Album News!

Author: · Catagories: Films, Music, News & Rumors, Requiem pour une tueuse

Okay! There have been a few new MĂ©lanie interviews/news articles I’ve missed posting while I’ve been busy, and I’m having trouble tracking all of them down again, but in the meantime there are two important bits of information that have surfaced: one, that her dĂ©but full-length album with Damien Rice is officially completed, and two, she’s filming a new movie before “Putain de pluie !” shoots in October.

No news (still) on when the album is due to be released — I’m guessing summer, like she previously stated — but for people wondering about the language of the album, it’s all in French. The new film starts shooting at the end of May in Lyon, and it’s the debut feature by director JĂŞrome Legris. MĂ©lanie plays a killer-for-hire who doubles as a singer in her spare time. Rhone Alpes CinĂ©ma says the title is “Un requie pour un tueur”, but it’s not on any of the major film sites yet, so things might have changed since then. Still, this is exciting news! I was anxious to hear what her next film project would be since she pulled from “La Fille du puisatier.”
