Did you know that Cyril Hanouna, the star presenter of C8, had almost taken one of the main roles of the comedy “What did we do to the Good Lord”, broadcast this Sunday evening on TF1? (in collaboration with Jean-Maxime Renault)
Cyril Hanouna, in the cinema, they are appearances in the credits, in particular, of The Truth if I lie 3, Pattaya and The New Adventures of Aladdin, or a vocal performance in the animated film Sausage Party. But did you know that the star host of C8 could have gotten a much bigger role on the big screen, not far from playing in the comedy What did we do to the good Lord?, Broadcast this Sunday evening on TF1?
It is at the microphone of GQ, at the end of 2016, that Cyril Hanouna revealed to have been approached to play in the phenomenon comedy with more than 12 million admissions, which will experience a third installment in early 2022. For what role? That of David Maurice Isaac Benichou, finally held on the screen by Ary Abittan, and which he declined for unknown reasons.
In the wake of this revelation, Ary Abittan confirmed at Europe 1, in Le Grand direct des medias, that Cyril Hanouna had almost played the companion of Odile (Julia Piaton) and therefore one of the step-sons of Claude and Marie Verneuil (Christian Clavier and Chantal Lauby). “Yes, that’s right. Cyril told me about it, it’s true”, declared the actor. “And he did well to refuse! He has more boxes!”
No good God for Cyril Hanouna, therefore, but what about the projects of the 47-year-old Frenchman, today, in the cinema and audiovisual landscape? Last April, Jean-Luc Azoulay, one of the founders of AB Productions, declared that he was working with the presenter-businessman on a sequel to Girls Next Door, the cult sitcom from the 90s. Wait and see…
These TV hosts made movies and you might not remember them!
