Passing through the set of Tuesday evening Daily to discuss his new series, Zorrowhich comes out this Friday, September 6, Jean Dujardin took the opportunity to compare with irony, and a hint of anger, the ceremonies of Paris 2024 and that of the opening of the Rugby World Cup of which he was the creator, artistic director and main actor.
Jean Dujardin’s bitterness after the 2024 Olympics
In front of Yann Barthès, Jean Dujardin was unable to hide the fact that the violent criticism his show provoked still sticks in his craw a year later.There was a kind of absolutely awful political recovery. During the ceremony, we found ourselves in this, it’s absurd. We were with volunteers, it was joyful. It was “a little bit naive”, Mr. Aphatie had said. When in fact, it was just good-natured. We managed, we had few resources. We were with volunteers, we tried to do it well!“, he got annoyed. The comedian, and new Zorro, also slipped in that he did not understand why the closing ceremony of the 2024 Olympics had received such a different reception from his show for the rugby tournament organized in France. “I was on a wire 40 meters up on an Eiffel Tower. Tom Cruise was coming down, everyone was applauding, and I was like “Fuck”. I said to myself “Isn’t this country good or what?” I’m not bitter. I laugh about it, because it was a very nice memory and then on top of that, we won that match against the All Blacks, so it was wonderful. I don’t regret anything and definitely, Paris is not France.”he said.
