Cyril Gelblat’s romantic drama The Way We Fall, starring Jean Dujardin, heads the AFM slate of Studio TF1, along with comedies Roxie In The Middle and Three Too Many!, and $25m animated family feature Yes, Chef!
The Way We Fall (Montagnes Russes) is about the love affair between a charismatic art history professor and a single mother, played by Marie Gillain, that comes under pressure following the birth of their daughter, due to his increasingly erratic behaviour.
Sarah Kaminsky, Laetitia Colombani and Kamir Aïnouz wrote the screenplay. Atelier de Production is producing, with a French release planned for late 2027.
Studio TF1 is also launching Yes, Chef!, a $25m animation about eight teams of pastry chefs competing in a televised baking contest where increasingly outrageous challenges fuel rivalries and unlikely alliances. Benjamin Mousquet and Annie Carrel direct from a screenplay by Lauren Hynek and Elizabeth Martin.
Studio TF1 is producing alongside nWave Studios and Octopolis, targeting an October 2028 French release.
Rounding out the slate are two comedies in post-production, both set for release in early 2027. Roxie In The Middle sees director Jennifer Devoldère reunite with producer Karé Productions and star Karin Viard for a story about a teenager with Down syndrome whose family assembles an unlikely majorette team ahead of the French Championships.
Meanwhile, Frédéric Quiring’s Three Too Many! stars Marilou Berry and Julien Pestel as a childless couple who mysteriously wake up as parents of three children. Studio TF1 produced the film.
