‘Beloved’ Catherine Deneuve Joins Christophe Honoré’s Rom Com

After having worked with her daughter, Chiara Mastroianni in his last film (Making Plans for Lena), Christophe Honoré will now work with Catherine Deneuve in his next project to begin lensing this fall. Entitled Les Bien-Aimés (The Beloved), Deneuve, who was supposed to have played in Ma mère (Huppert would take the role) will play the title character in this rom com – Mastroianni, Ludivine Sagnier and the frequent Honoré collaborator Louis Garrel, are also joining the project.

Les Bien-Aimés is based on several love stories set at different times, in multiple locations, in the city of Prague in 1968, to contemporary London. Sagnier plays Deneuve of the Czechoslovakia 60’s. Honoré will work again with composer Alex Beaupain.
