Isabelle Huppert stars in new Marc Fitoussi film

The film ‘Ni vue, ni connue’, directed by Marc Fitoussi, is scheduled for release in France on October 7, 2026. The comedy-drama stars Isabelle Huppert as Corinne Maclou, an aspiring extra who persistently seeks a breakthrough role despite being largely unnoticed by the industry.

Huppert’s character navigates the frustrations of the film business, from long waits to the social hierarchies between stars and background actors. The story explores the gap between visibility and talent, featuring Sandrine Kiberlain in a role that serves as a fictionalized version of herself. While the film offers a critique of the hypocrisy and arrogance within the French film industry, some reviews suggest the narrative struggles to decide how to best utilize the central character's persistent nature.
