Remember! Between 1999 and 2003, Jean Dujardin and Alexandra Lamy played Jean and Alex, a couple remembered by millions of French people. But despite the success, after five seasons and 438 episodes lasting almost six minutes, Loulou and Chouchou decided to say goodbye to a public totally committed to their cause. However, for what reasons did the adventure stop?
The two actors felt that the time had come to turn the page. “We gave everything we had”indicated at the time Alexandra Lamy. “What more could we do today?” Words with which his friend agreed. “We argued enough in front of the cameras for four years. I prefer to leave good memories to people, rather than bore them”estimated the one who shared his life for almost 10 years.
If the series allowed the 49-year-old actor to really launch his career, he admitted to having some bad memories. A fairly small filming location, a hell of a pace…
“When, in one day, you do three episodes in a pile and you go home to bed at night, I can tell you that you don’t fall asleep right away”, he said in an interview for Running Heroes. That’s why in the third season, we negotiated trips and exteriors, after three years of kitchen and bathroom”.
The couple Chouchou and Loulou were therefore able to travel to the Seychelles or even to Hong Kong.
For the most nostalgic, since February 7, Un Gars, une fille is rebroadcast, Monday to Friday from 7:55 p.m. on NRJ 12. Without forgetting that the 438 episodes are available on the SVOD platform Amazon Prime Video.
