France 2 has imagined a crossover event between its two successful police series, Astrid and Raphaëlle and Alexandra Ehle…
Fans ofAstrid and Raphaëlle andAlexandra Ehletwo flagship police series from France 2, are entitled to their crossover, this process which consists, during a special episode (or several), of crossing two successful programs by placing their characters within a common plot. The opportunity to mix the heroes and their performers in juicy interactions.
A new and exceptional episode, entitled “Astrid, Raphaëlle and Alexandra Ehle: An eye for an eye“, was thus scheduled on the main public service channel on November 1, 2024. With two series launched a few months apart (March 2018 for Alexandra Ehle and April 2019 for Astrid, Raphaëlle), with a similar tone and sometimes blatant similarities in the scenarios, the cocktail seems as logical as it is bursting with humor and suspense. After years of carrying out their investigations each on their own, the three characters, as endearing as they are unpredictable, will join forces. A great first offered to fans of offbeat thrillers.
What does it tell Astrid, Raphaëlle and Alexandra Ehle: An eye for an eye?
In this breathtaking investigation, Astrid and Raphaëlle discover a human eye at the bottom of a jar of onions in Paris. Meanwhile, in Bordeaux, Alexandra Ehle examines a corpse from which both eyes have been removed… When the judge decides to put the two pieces of the puzzle together, Astrid, Raphaëlle and Alexandra understand that they will have to cooperate, for the better and for worse.
Faced with this two-part mystery, the three intrepid investigators will have no choice but to join forces and talents. On the program for this forced but promising collaboration: a family story, a rare illness, a little return to childhood, muscadet, a bike chase and even an oyster mushroom…
“Lola Dewaere and I are going to go a little overboard”
The filming of this crossover gave rise to delicious encounters between characters, who lack neither character nor eccentricity. Julie Depardieuwho plays Alexandra Ehle, notably confided in an interview with Télé Star about the atmosphere of this shoot like no other: “I like this heroine, who does a lot of stupid things but who always manages to get through it “, first underlined the actress who would like to have the “audacity” of her character.
As for Astrid and Raphaëlle: “They are the ones who will come to see me, and we will be gathered around a corpse, part of which is in Paris, and the other in Bordeaux. Lola Dewaere and I will fall a bit into excess and doing a certain number of forbidden things…”, she warned, keeping the scenario a mystery.
As a reminder, Astrid and Raphaëlle follows the investigations of Astrid Nielsen (Sara Mortensen), an autistic thirty-something working discreetly as a documentalist for the judicial police, and police commander Raphaëlle Coste (Lola Dewaere, the daughter of Patrick Dewaere). Astrid uses her gifts of analysis, memory and her method, while Raphaëlle is a little girl made for the field. In Alexandra Ehle, the main character (Julie Depardieu, daughter of Gérard Depardieu) is a stubborn, even obstinate, forensic doctor, working at the Bordeaux forensic institute and assisted by a unique team. Three characters who had everything to form a shock trio.
