Christian Clavier, evening star on TV: the actor is starring in three comedies simultaneously

And his new film, Cocorico, is a hit in theaters.

Christian Clavier will be in triple competition with himself, this evening on television. Just as his new comedy, cock-a-doodle Doois approaching one and a half million cinema admissions.

Canal + will offer one of its most recent films at 9:10 p.m., The Revenge of Master Poutifardproduced by PEF, who found the actor after Teachers. This story of revenge by a teacher against his most rowdy former students was seen by 530,000 curious people last year.

M6 will offer in parallel With open arms (2017), another comedy directed by Philippe de Chauveron. A reunion film, there too, since it is the director of What have we done to the good Lord? and its aftermath. Despite its devastating reviews, this story of a rich couple welcoming Roma into their home was seen by 1 million spectators upon its release.

Finally, Chérie 25 will broadcast at the same time An hour of tranquilitya comedy by Patrice Leconte, the director of Tannedwhich also crossed the million admissions mark upon its release.

In 2014, the director here adapted a successful play by Florian Zeller, who subsequently filmed the dramas The Father And The Son. On stage, it was Fabrice Luchini who played this hyperactive man dreaming of being able to listen to a jazz record in peace, but who ended up beside himself, constantly interrupted by those close to him.
