We are delighted that even if, for the time being, only one piece of information has leaked: the name of the actor who will play the main character. Moreover, motus and mouth sewn. We managed to get our hands on some information.
- Romain Duris will play the main character
Accustomed to comedies, the 43-year-old French actor was chosen to play Vernon Subutex, a former Parisian record store that had some notoriety in the 1980s but had to close its store following the crisis of the record. The actor will have to put himself in the skin of this asocial man, soft and passive, who will begin a journey to survive in a world that seems no longer suitable for him.
- A series broadcast on Canal
Broadcast on Canal , the series will be produced by 27.11 and Tetra media Fiction. In the screenplay, there are big names such as Benjamin Dupas, who took part in the adventure “Ten percent” or “Do not do it, do not do it”, but also Cathy Vernay, who also worked on “Do not do it do not do it “. The whole will be supervised by the author of the novels, Virginie Despentes.
- Episodes of 30 minutes
The format of each episode is ideal: 30 minutes. It is enough to keep the viewer on his toes without annoying him. We’re a long way from the one-hour episodes and some of the flagship series.

Before putting her choice on Romain Duris, Virginie Despentes had entrusted Augustin Trapenard’s “21cm” show, that she would see the French actor Marc Lavoine in the skin of this man who finds himself on the street at the death of his rich friend. It is finally the star of the Anarcoeur that will embody Vernon Subutex.
