In STAT, while he was in psychosis, surgeon Steve Jolicoeur (Marc Beaupré) coldly murdered psychiatrist Philippe Dupéré (Patrick Labbé), who was trying to help him.
Obviously, the patient, who believed he was being attacked by “hackers”, was then arrested by the police who took him to prison. So, since the return of the holidays, we have not seen – or very little – the doctor in the series.
This week, his friend Tristan Rhéaume (Steve Gagnon) gave some news – which was not very good – to Emmanuelle (Suzanne Clément) without giving too many details.
Actor Marc Beaupré has given very few interviews since his character’s disappearance, so we didn’t get his thoughts on this intense mid-season finale.
While on On va se le dire Wednesday, live, the actor discussed the issue with the host, Sébastien Diaz.
First, he indicates that he did not know at all that the author Marie-Andrée Labbé was going to take this direction with her character.
-« I was surprised “, he said. “ But it’s an honor at the same time to do this, because I’m being given the final. Then it’s a shock, it’s going to be a shock, then people are going to associate it with me, it’s an honor to do that. »
« I’m in love with my character “, he also admits. “ This is the first time I’ve put on a uniform. I’ve been doing this for 25 years, this is the first time I’ve put on a uniform. » It is true that we have seen Marc Beaupré play bandits more than heroes.
« I don’t know what will happen with Steve Jolicoeur “, he said also honestly. He will be back in STAT, he confirms, but in what context, we don’t know. He says, on the other hand, that his beard of a few days is an indicator of the future, less clean, appearance of his character.
Let us remember that, these days, the topic of the hour of STAT is that of therapeutic clowns, while some people practicing this profession in reality have rebelled. All the details here.
