Louis Garrel is not crazy, he never participated in the dubbing of Garfield

“I do a voice in Isle of Dogs. But I do a dog. Garfield is a cat, okay?”
In the middle of the Floodcast, the Saint-Ex actor discovered that he was credited in the voice casting of the latest opus…

“We talk about things in this episode: ASMR, friendship, writing + directing, not liking the sun, social networks, Paul Mescal, Bernard Mdress, biopics, hip-hop , to play in Garfield and the end of a friendship between two actors.”

Louis Garrel And Noémie Merlant recently participated in the Floodcast. The two French stars of The Innocent met on the occasion of the theatrical release of Saint-Ex for him, a biopic of the author of Little princeand the actress's 2nd production, entitled Women on the balcony. During a game organized by Florent Bernard (also director of We, the Leroysand always accompanied by Adrien Ménielle) from their respective filmography, Garrel was amazed when he heard that he had played in the last Garfield.

From 45 minutes onwards, the director was surprised to be mentioned in the casting of Garfield: hero in spite of himselfthe latest animated film based on the famous comics about the lasagna-loving cat, released last summer in theaters. If Kyan Khojandi was chosen by Sony France to lend his voice to the protagonist, Louis Garrel discovered during the show that he was cited for dubbing Roland, a secondary character, both on Allocinated And Wikipedia. When they wanted to check on IMDbthe Bible of Hollywood cinema, they however found no trace of the actor.

Which gave rise to an improbable exchange within the team. “Was it Noémie who helped make my filmography?”laughs the actor, mockingly, about Merlant who had forgotten a few minutes earlier that he was playing in My Roi, alongside Maïwenn and Vincent Cassel. Triggering laughter from his interlocutors, Garrel continues: “I make a voice in Isle of Dogs. But I make a dog. Garfield is a cat, okay? If you find me on IMDb I do a voice in GarfieldI'll give you 200 euros. With withholding tax, that’s 170…” Faced with Florent Bernard's live checks, he is more and more surprised: “Is there a guy who wants to harm me? (laughs). There’s that for sure Wikipedia ? It’s super funny!”

The facilitator appreciates this “debunk” live, and states: “Louis is therefore not in Garfielddespite the rumor.” “And he is not in My king !”adds Noémie Merlant, hilarious.
