With cartonAlibi.com 2, Philippe Lacheau confirms his popularity. The comedy, which should reach one million admissions by Wednesday, is his sixth film in a row to exceed this symbolic level.
So far, his first five films as a director (Babysitting 1 And 2, Alibi.com, Nicky Larson And Despite himself superheroes) attracted 12.4 million spectators in theaters, while being a hit on television.
Coming soon in “3 days max”
Alibi.com 2 begins after the closure of the Alibi.com agency. Greg (Philippe Lacheau) promised Flo (Élodie Fontan) not to lie anymore. When he decides to propose to Flo, Greg must introduce her to his family.
But between a crooked father and a mother who is an ex-charm film actress, he has no choice but to reopen his agency with his former accomplices for an ultimate Alibi and to find more presentable fake parents…
Tarek Boudali, Julien Arruti, Didier Bourdon and Nathalie Baye are in the cast. Gérard Jugnot and Arielle Dombasle were chosen to play Greg’s parents. The “Bande à Fifi” will meet again in October to 3 days max.
