In the movie The Floodwhich has just been released in theaters this Wednesday, December 25, 2024, Guillaume Canet plays Louis XVI, famous deposed king, who had to face the worst humiliations before being beheaded. In order to promote this new feature film, the 51-year-old actor gave an interview to our colleagues at TV Star, in which he was notably led to reveal what would be the worst thing for him to experience. Unsurprisingly, he spoke of the loss of his family and more particularly that of his children Marcel and Louise (13 and 7 years old), fruits of his love affair with Marion Cotillard.
“Besides, I imagined that I was being separated from them. It’s for me the most terrible thing that I could happen to live. But like the woman I love too!“, he explained. Thus, Guillaume Canet does everything possible with Marion Cotillard to continue to see his children as often as possible, despite the fact that they both have very busy schedules. To avoid this situation, they have put in place a rule that they apply with rigor and caution. This is what the actor said last year for our colleagues at. Parisian : “For twelve years, we have had a rule: we are never absent at the same time for more than five days in a row and neither of us works in August.”
Guillaume Canet talks about Marion Cotillard, her beautiful secrets
Note that at the time, he was also the guest of Laurent Delahousse on his show 8:30 p.m. on Sundays, on France 2. He then took the opportunity to share the admiration he has for the wife of his children, who whether as a mother or an actress: “In life because she is making an extraordinary journey, and in her career I am extremely admiring. Sometimes, I find it difficult to look back. Especially because we live together, that we have children together. […] Each time I am completely captivated by the intensity she puts into her characters and the work she puts in to live up to what is asked of her. […] I am very, very impressed by the woman, by the actress. It’s true that it’s very impressive to share, even your life, with her.”
Finally, remember that Marion Cotillard spends a lot of time in Los Angeles, where she has part of her career and is the owner of a sumptuous villa. His life is therefore spent between Paris and California.
