In this trailer, Omar Sy, in the role of the hero imagined by Maurice Leblanc, appears in front of the camera and explains that he has inherited "incredible riches and inexhaustible resources".

"I inherited a book," he said in a voiceover showing an edition of the book Arsène Lupine.

Plans follow which tell us that the hero played by Omar Sy will not evolve in the 19th century as in the original novel, but today.

The actor will be surrounded by other big names in French cinema such as Nicole Garcia, Ludivine Sagnier and Hervé Pierre, member of the Comédie française.

Clotilde Hesme (who has already met the actor in

Chocolat

), Shirine Boutella (

Papich

a) Soufiane Guerrab (

La Vie scolaire

) and Antoine Gouy (

Budapest

) will also be in the credits.

Behind the camera, the first three episodes of this series will be signed by Louis Leterrier, the director of another Netflix series,

Dark Crystal: Time for rebirth

.
