Caesar Wagner is back Friday January 10 on France 2. Absent from the previous episode, Fanny Cottençon appears furtively in this one. A regret for the actress, who does not hide it, and an understandable feeling for Gil Alma, the interpreter of her son in the series.
Friday January 10, France 2 offers the second new episode of Caesar Wagner (our opinion), the last one the chain has in stock. The Strasbourg cop played by Gil Alma is in fact bowing out this evening after a second delicate investigation which takes him and his squad to a renowned sports club. The opportunity to see Fanny Cottençon, who plays the hero’s mother but also the mayor of the city. An actress who has been present since the launch of the series in 2020 but is ultimately not present on the air. An unpleasant situation, as she confided to Télé-Loisirs.
“They should write me more interesting things to play!” Fanny Cottençon (César Wagner) rants, Gil Alma supports her
Met during the broadcast of Mysteries of Clos des Lilas, where she played opposite Blandine Bellavoir, Fanny Cottençon spoke about her role in Caesar Wagner, where she is discreet. Suggested in the episode Koehler Grapes (our opinion) broadcast on January 3, the actress appears in barely two scenes of the one offered this Friday. As a result, she is not sure she wants to continue the adventure. “I don’t know if I’m going to continue playing in Caesar Wagner. Maybe. There is an episode where I am very little and another where I am not at all. So I don’t know, they should write more interesting things for me to play.” A feeling surely shared by Joséphine de Meaux, the interpreter of the commissioner who recently left the ship.
Caesar Wagner : Gil Alma reacts to the underexploitation of Fanny Cottençon
The return of Caesar Wagner on air was also the occasion for an interview with Gil Alma. The actor reacted to the departure of Joséphine de Meaux and the underexploitation of Fanny Cottençon, who therefore plays his mother in the France 2 detective series. “It’s normal, I understand, the actor begins. Like Josephine [de Meaux], Fanny [Cottençon], is also a great actress with an incredible resume. I hope to do half of what she did. It’s true that she has few days of filming each time. There was supposed to be an episode that took place at the town hall but ultimately it didn’t happen. She would have had more to play with since she would have been a bit in the heart of the place.” Let’s hope, since the series is renewed, that Fanny Cottençon is more present in the intrigues, especially since her character’s relationship is surely not unrelated to her son’s ills!
