It was a small phrase thrown at the corner of an interview in the World, and it went a bit unnoticed. “We are developing a new series that will be shot in an airport, it will be called Terminal and it will be in the spirit of the series. H“, he had declared to the newspaper Jamel Debbouze last June.
The comedian gave some additional details on the microphone ofeuropean 1, this Tuesday. “It will be filmed in public, with the new generation of comedians that you have surely seen on the stage of ‘Marrakech du rire,’ among others,” he said. Jamel Debbouze will also be an actor there.
“Touch with the finger what we could do with H”
Like H, this sitcom will be “aired on Canal+”. “We look forward to addressing what we have been able to do with H”he added.
This return to the sitcom is an old dream of Jamel Debbouze, who already in 2016 mentioned his desire to follow up on Htitled L.
HBroadcast from 1998 to 2002 on Canal+ and now available on Netflix, it is a true cult object.
“The great idea of Alain De Greef [ancien directeur des programmes de Canal+] at that time, it was putting Eric and Ramzy, Jamel Debbouze, Catherine Benguigui, Sophie Mounicot and Jean-Luc Bideau in the same jar”, recalled Jamel Debbouze in 2016 with Media+.
“We were filming in public, our performances were transcended. The laughs weren’t added at all, they’re real. It is an experience that still wakes me up at night. H never left me and the rest is already in my mind”.
Either L won’t see the light of day, Jamel Debbouze will make his sitcom dream come true with Terminal.
