Léa Seydoux had a complicated first shoot

The first times are rarely the best and it is not Léa Seydoux who should say the opposite.

The one that directors around the world are snapping up today landed her first leading role in

, a film released in 2006 and directed by Sylvie Ayme.

This describes the actress as being at the time "completely off the plate" on a set.

“She annoyed the technicians.

We had just prepared her for a scene and then she was lying down.

She paid no attention to her hair and makeup.

She was never in her mark.

For dance, she had the greatest difficulties in learning to dance, ”she told BFM as part of their meeting

.

The makings of a star

Faced with a “more liberated” Soko who “greatly influenced the film”, the young Léa Seydoux seems to have struggled to find her place.

To the point that the director "had to put the hola" so that the future star "does not completely become the scapegoat of the shooting".

Even if the young girl at the time obviously had all the difficulties in the world to blend into the skin of an actress for this film distributed by Jérôme Seydoux, the big boss of the Pathé studios (and grandfather of Léa Seydoux), one thing everyone agreed.

“When the camera was on her, there was this extraordinary presence.

I immediately felt that this girl was extraordinary.

I told him to hang on, ”explains Sylvie Ayme.

The rest of the story proved him right.
