In 2003, they exploded all three in the film Child games. This February 1, Marion Cotillard sat alongside Guillaume Canet and Gilles Lellouche on the Six-seater sofa by blogger Léna Situations, her podcast broadcast on Spotify. According to an original concept of answering questions that had not been addressed to them directly, but simply sent by listeners who just knew that “actors” were going to answer them, the stars of the French big screen were first asked about how which we arrive at break into the cinema. With irony, Gilles Lellouche replied: “It’s pistonbasically… You’re son of, that helps a lot.” A touch of humor that did not escape Léna Situations. The influencer then mentioned the front page of the New York Times from December 19 in which it was about nepotism in Hollywood.
“If we don’t have talent, it will stop very quickly”
The American newspaper argued that the cinema sector was invaded by what they called “nepo-babies”, understand the daughters and sons of, and denounced this “reproduction of cultural elites”. Were notably cited Zoë Kravitz, daughter of Lenny Kravitz, Maya Hawke, daughter of Uma Thurman, Jaden, son of Will Smith or even Lily Rose Depp, daughter of Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis. Very quickly, Marion Cotillard took the floor. The actress said, defending those on the bench on the accused: “That is to say that… Indeed one can be the son of or the daughter of, from the moment we have talent, we will be able to make a career. If we don’t have one, if we’re not in our place, it’s going to end very quickly. So there really isn’t a topic on that. Especially since the people who were on this cover, there are extremely talented and irrelevant people on this cover disrespecting working people. Indeed, on the one hand there are people who say ‘it’s easier for you’, on the other hand, these daughters and sons say ‘no it’s not easier because you have to a first name’.”

“If she had no talent…”
“I don’t have the impression that it’s easier to be a son of. In people’s vision, there is still the figure of the father or the mother who are very important and therefore there is a comparison. We say to ourselves that he is less good…”, confirmed his companion Guillaume Canet. “Yes, there may be a wait, a certain pressure, but then we fall back to talent or not…”, continued the French actress before finally defending Lily-Rose Depp: “Someone like Lily-Rose Depp, who was on this cover and who is an absolutely amazing actress and who I think is going to do great things, indeed she has two parents who are famous but if she had no talent, she would not be in the cinema. As for Marion Cotillard and Guillaume Canet, their children Marcel and Louise, aged 12 and 5, who grow up in this same environment, will they want to take the same path as their superstar parents?
