Kaamelott: the secrets of Alexandre Astier
In 2021, after twelve long years of waiting, fans of Kaamelott were finally able to discover the first part of the coveted trilogy. Taking place several years after the season 6 finale, the feature film Kaamelott: First Part sees Arthur Pendragon return to the Kingdom of Brittany. Initially reluctant to regain power, the sovereign ended up defeating Lancelot du Lac and his band of conspirators and traitors, by allying himself with Léodagan de Carmelide and the Burgundians. Both funny and melancholy, the film attracted more than 2,600,000 spectators in the midst of Covid-19.
This Wednesday, December 18, 2024, a few days before Christmas, Alexandre Astier revealed the official release date of Kaamelott: Second Partwhich will indeed be divided into two films in the manner of Kill Bill by Quentin Tarantino. The Lyonnais took the opportunity to unveil the first two images of the feature film. The film therefore becomes one of the most coveted projects of the year 2025. This is why he will be on the cover of the next issue of the cinema magazine Firstwhich will appear on newsstands from Friday December 20, 2024.
On the article announcing the issue published by our colleagues, to whom he granted an interview, we can read:
To return to his own comparison with the Star Wars saga, will this second part of Kaamelott be rather his Empire Strikes Backson Attack of the Clones or his Last Jedi ? “The Empire Strikes Backreplies the director straight away. Because it ends up smelling scorched…”
You will have understood it, Kaamelott: Second Part promises to be much darker than the first film. Which opponents will Arthur face? What role will Horsa play, the Saxon leader played by the singer Sting and introduced in Kaamelott: First Shutterin the events that await us? Will important people die? All of these will be answered in both parts of Kaamelott: Second Part. We can’t wait! In the meantime, don’t hesitate to give us your theories in the comments area.
