Jean Dujardin has no regrets. A little over 12 years ago, the star ofOne Guy One Girl distinguished himself on the international scene by winning the Oscar for best actor in Los Angeles for his performance in the film by Michel Hazanavicius, The Artist (2011). A reward that could have opened the doors to Hollywood for him, but apart from a few small roles in films like The Wolf of Wall Street (2013), by Martin Scorsese, et Monuments Men (2014), by George Clooney, Jean Dujardin remained very chauvinistic in his career choices.
During his appearance on the show “8:30 p.m. on Sunday,” the actor said he doesn’t miss his short Hollywood career “at all.” “The brain is very well made. He always keeps the best,” he declared in front of images of the Oscar ceremony which rewarded him in 2012. “So I obviously keep these great moments knowing already at the time that all that It was just a stint and my best roles would be in France anyway. »
“My life is here”
The actor, back on December 23 on the small screen under the legendary cape of Zorro, also recognized that he was not “culturally” well aligned with the United States. “My family is here, my life is here, my very beautiful roles are here, my friends are here,” he added. And his next character, although of American origin, was revisited on this occasion on French television!
Jean Dujardin also realizes a childhood dream by wearing the mask of Don Diego de la Vega for France 2. The actor confided last September that this role represented for him a “childhood memory and a desire to act , that of rubbing shoulders with the legend.” However, once he put on the costume, the look of others “fascinated” him. “It was very intimidating to see them looking at me,” he noted. Everyone has an image of Zorro in their head. Seeing her in the eyes of others was impressive. »
