Netflix, through its official Youtube profile, has recently released the first teaser trailer of Lupine, TV series that will star the actor Omar Sy. As the short synopsis of the series suggests, Omar Sy will not play the famous gentleman thief but Assane Diop, who will probably collect his inheritance. The setting that will be the background to the events narrated will be France and, more specifically, Paris. In the teaser the focus is given to an object of inestimable value: the Gioconda. Below you can find the (short) synopsis of the series, which will debut exclusively on Netflix at January 2021:

I am thrilled with this role. Arsenio Lupine, an iconic and charismatic character, will come to life again in a modern, one-of-a-kind adaptation. It is wonderful to join the world of Netflix, a service that offers so many different and quality programs, which inspire me and many others every day.
