Lupin is a French mystery thriller streaming television series created by George Kay and François Uzan that premiered on Netflix on 8 January 2021. The series consists of ten episodes, with the first five released in January 2021 and the remainder on 11 June 2021.[2] Netflix has renewed Lupin for a third part.[3]

The show stars Omar Sy in the role of Assane Diop, a man who is inspired by the adventures of master thief Arsène Lupin, a character created by Maurice Leblanc in the early 1900s.[4] The first part, consisting of five episodes, is subtitled Dans l'ombre d'Arsène (In the Shadow of Arsène), referring to the primary character's inspiration.[5][6] The series was watched by 70 million households during its first month, becoming the most-watched non-English series on Netflix at the time.[7]

Synopsis[edit]

The story follows professional thief Assane Diop, the only son of an immigrant from Senegal who had come to France to seek a better life for his child. Assane's father is framed for the theft of an expensive diamond necklace by his employer, the wealthy and powerful Hubert Pellegrini, and hangs himself in his prison cell out of shame, leaving the teenage Assane an orphan. Twenty-five years later, inspired by a book about gentleman thief Arsène Lupin his father had given him on his birthday, Assane sets out to get revenge on the Pellegrini family, using his charisma and mastery of thievery, subterfuge, and disguise to expose Hubert's crimes.[8][9][10][4]

11"Chapter 1 - Le Collier de la reine"Louis LeterrierGeorge Kay8 January 2021 (2021-01-08)
Assane Diop plans the theft of a high-priced diamond necklace, once owned by Marie-Antoinette, which his father, Babakar, had been accused of stealing from the wealthy Pellegrini family 25 years earlier. He enlists the help of a group of loan sharks, to whom he owes money. Under the alias Paul Sernine, Assane attends an auction for the necklace, hosted by the Pellegrinis at the Louvre. He wins, but the loan sharks double-cross him and steal the necklace. However, their getaway goes awry and they are arrested, while Assane ends up in possession of the diamonds and walks free. While investigating the case, Youssef Guédira, a junior police detective, notices it bears a resemblance to the stories of Arsène Lupin, and then realizes Paul Sernine and Arsène Lupin are anagrams of each other. The day after the heist, Assane gives his son, Raoul, a copy of Arsène Lupin, Gentleman Burglar, gifted to him by Babakar, who died in prison shortly after being convicted for the original necklace theft.
22"Chapter 2 - L'Illusion"Louis LeterrierGeorge Kay and François Uzan8 January 2021 (2021-01-08)
After Assane's best friend, antiquarian Benjamin Ferel, informs him that the jewels from the necklace were unlikely to have been scattered across the world, as the Pellegrini family had claimed, Assane begins doubting that his father was responsible for the theft. He confronts Juliette Pellegrini, who admits that her family's story was a lie but affirms her belief in Babakar's guilt. Unsatisfied, Assane gets himself placed in jail so he can speak to Étienne Comet, a man who worked at the prison library during his father's incarceration. A sickly Comet leads Assane to a copy of The Confessions of Arsène Lupin, with annotations from his father spelling out the phrase "I am innocent—framed by Anne Pellegrini". Assane escapes prison and finds Anne, who confesses that she instructed Babakar to sign a false confession at the urging of an Inspector Gabriel Dumont. Assane recognizes Dumont as the police officer who turned him over to social services following Babakar's death. Meanwhile, Youssef continues to investigate the Arsène Lupin connection, happening upon Babakar's case file.
33"Chapter 3 - Le Commissaire Dumont"Louis LeterrierFrançois Uzan8 January 2021 (2021-01-08)
After learning that Inspector Dumont was responsible for handling the case against his father, Assane kidnaps the now-Commissioner Dumont from City Hall and tries to get him to confess to having framed Babakar. Flashing back 25 years, a younger Dumont begins to suspect that Hubert Pellegrini, who had recently had the necklace's insurance policy increased, masterminded its disappearance and set Babakar up to take the fall. When he realizes that Dumont is building a case against him for insurance fraud, Hubert threatens the police officer's wife and convinces him to trick Anne into getting Babakar to sign the confession. In the present, Assane accidentally reveals his identity to Dumont during the course of his interrogation. The police scramble to locate their commissioner, and Assane escapes just before they arrive. Dumont is rescued but does not reveal any information about the identity of his kidnapper. Later, Youssef discovers Dumont's involvement with the original investigation and connects it to the necklace's theft and the abduction.
44"Chapter 4 - Volte-face"Marcela SaidGeorge Kay, François Uzan, and Eliane Montane8 January 2021 (2021-01-08)
Assane finds Dumont again and coerces him into providing more information about Hubert Pellegrini. Dumont gives him the name of Fabienne Bériot, a former investigative journalist who was blacklisted and ruined by Hubert after publicly denouncing his corruption in a book titled Dirty Money: The Pellegrini System. Fabienne, eager to get revenge on Hubert, helps Assane acquire a tape connecting the entrepreneur's arms dealing to a deadly terrorist attack on a French embassy in Kuala Lumpur. Assane anonymously posts an image from the tape on Twitter and threatens to release the video. Hubert denies the accusations, and his henchman Léonard Koné begins stalking Fabienne. Meanwhile, Youssef is removed from the necklace investigation by Dumont, who realizes the detective is closing in on the truth about his involvement in the original case. A heavily disguised Assane's plan to expose Hubert on the talk show The Other Edition goes awry when Hubert, who is friends with the show's host, manages to have the footage altered. Juliette Pellegrini, convinced of her father's innocence, reveals to him that Assane is behind the accusations, as well as the Louvre heist. Léonard attacks Fabienne in her home and, to his horror, Assane later discovers her body hanging from the ceiling.
55"Chapter 5 - Étretat"Marcela SaidGeorge Kay and François Uzan8 January 2021 (2021-01-08)
Following Fabienne's death, Assane gives her dog, J'accuse, to Benjamin. On Raoul's birthday, Assane surprises him with a top hat and cape and takes him and Claire on a train trip to a Lupin-themed festival at Étretat. Léonard, who has begun pursuing Assane, follows the family onto the train, with orders from Hubert to get rid of Assane but to leave Claire and Raoul alone. Assane spots Léonard and manages to lock him in a storage closet, but as the train pulls into its destination, Léonard escapes and sits next to Raoul, making Claire uneasy. In a last-ditch effort, Assane tells Claire and Raoul to disembark ahead of him and successfully manipulates the local police into arresting Léonard by suggesting that he is Paul Sernine. After Assane catches up, the family makes it to the festival without major incident. As Raoul explores the beach by himself, Claire asks Assane about Léonard, but grows distressed when he avoids the question. Assane promises her that he will change and urges her to give him one more chance to prove himself. Léonard, meanwhile, is released from police custody and kidnaps Raoul. After noticing that they cannot see their son anywhere on the beach, Claire and Assane begin searching desperately for him. Youssef appears and calls out to Assane, addressing him quizzically as "Lupin".

Youssef informs Assane and Claire that he saw Raoul struggling with Léonard in a parking lot, and that the two drove away. Claire blames Assane for the kidnapping. Youssef, aware that Assane is the man he is searching for, offers to help him chase Léonard down, and the two steal a car and give chase. Remaining in Étretat, Claire contacts the local police but is upset by their dispassionate response and decides to try to find Raoul herself. Meanwhile, Assane and Youssef locate Léonard in a nearby town and tail him to an abandoned mansion, where Léonard, who has Raoul bound and gagged, is lying in wait. Youssef quietly contacts Sofia Belkacem and asks her for assistance, but Assane ties him up inside the car. He enters the house, fights Léonard, and throws him out the window. However, Léonard, who has locked Raoul in the boot of his car, manages to stand up and lights the car on fire. When he sees the burning vehicle and realizes what has happened, Assane is devastated and breaks down. A moment later, Belkacem arrives and arrests him.
72"Chapter 7"Ludovic BernardGeorge Kay and François Uzan11 June 2021 (2021-06-11)
Youssef escapes his bindings and successfully rescues Raoul from Léonard’s car without Assane's knowledge. Afterwards, he is informed that Dumont wants Raoul taken to the Park Hyatt hotel, where Hubert and Juliette are hosting an event in honor of their foundation. Although confused, Youssef complies with the order. Assane, meanwhile, is relieved when Belkacem tells him that nothing but a soda can was found in the boot of the car. He escapes police custody, steals another car, and drives to Paris, where he uses voice-altering technology to make himself sound like Hubert in order to successfully rescue Raoul from the Hyatt. However, unbeknownst to Assane, Claire has uncovered the full truth of his activities after a conversation with Benjamin. Desperate with worry for her son's safety, she visits Hubert and makes a deal to betray Assane in exchange for Raoul's return. When Assane brings Raoul back home, a number of Hubert's men await him there. Claire manages to warn him to escape.
83"Chapter 8"Hugo GélinGeorge Kay and François Uzan11 June 2021 (2021-06-11)
Despite having helped him evade Pellegrini's henchmen, Claire tells Raoul she doesn't want him seeing his father again. Meanwhile, Hubert begins to work with a new stockbroker named Philippe Courbet. While the pair are planning a charity concert for Juliette's foundation, Hubert reveals that he intends to send 85% of the donations to a personal offshore bank account. Assane and Benjamin come up with an elaborate plan to weaken Hubert that involves Assane seducing Juliette by taking her on a joyride around Paris and pretending to steal a priceless Pissaro painting for her. The plan is a success, as Assane manages to convince Juliette to talk to her mother about Hubert's crimes during the 1990s. When Juliette visits her, Anne admits that the necklace theft was an insurance scam, and that Hubert had hired Babakar with the explicit intention of framing him for it. Juliette urges Anne to denounce Hubert to the police. After learning the truth from Anne, Youssef and Captain Laugier arrest Hubert.
94"Chapter 9"Hugo GélinGeorge Kay and François Uzan11 June 2021 (2021-06-11)
The police are forced to let Hubert go after he calls in a favor from Albert Fontan, the minister of the interior. After his release, Hubert learns from Pascal that Benjamin is Assane's accomplice. He instructs Léonard to tail Benjamin in order to find out where Assane lives. He then arranges for Pascal to murder Léonard in Assane's apartment and to frame Assane for the crime. Their plan is a success, and when Assane discovers what has happened, he goes on the run and tells Benjamin to do the same. That night, Assane's identity is publicly revealed, and he becomes the most notorious criminal in France. Over the next several days, Assane and Benjamin hide out, managing to evade capture using a secret bunker that connects to the Catacombs of Paris. Meanwhile, after receiving a coded message from Assane, Youssef finds a USB drive among the evidence taken from his apartment that contains footage of Dumont's interrogation, and more papers that link him to Babakar's case.
105"Chapter 10"Hugo GélinGeorge Kay, François Uzan, and Sumerah Srivastav[12]11 June 2021 (2021-06-11)
Belkacem receives evidence from the police laboratory suggesting that Assane was not Léonard's murderer. Youssef informs her and Laugier about Dumont's corruption, and the three resolve to arrest him at the Pellegrini concert that evening. Assane is smuggled into the theater. When the music starts, Assane sneaks into Hubert's private box, holding him at knifepoint and forcing him to confess to all his crimes against the Diop family. Assane is chased extensively through the theater but manages to get onstage, where he publicly accuses Hubert of all of his crimes, including stealing from the foundation. He succeeds in evading the police and sends Youssef a recording of Hubert's confession. After stealing a speedboat, Assane arranges a reconciliatory meeting with Claire and Raoul on a nearby bridge. He apologizes for his actions and tells them that he needs to stay away, for their safety. As the police approach, he runs off into the night.

Production[edit]

Development[edit]

On 19 July 2018, Netflix ordered a new series, to be produced by Gaumont Film Company, about the character Arsène Lupin, with Sy portraying the titular character. In an interview, Sy revealed that "Arsene Lupin, who is an iconic and charismatic character, will take on a new life in this modern adaptation, unique in its genre".[13] Netflix confirmed that George Kay and François Uzan would be the showrunners, with Louis Leterrier directing the first three episodes.[14][15][16]

Filming[edit]

Filming of the first five episodes was completed primarily in Paris, on various streets and at the Louvre, both inside and out.[17] According to research by Condé Nast Traveler, other important locations included La Naumachie pond at Parc Monceau and Musée Nissim de Camondo on rue de Monceau; the latter stands in as the Pellegrini home and is open to the public.[18] Other listed locations include Collège-lycée Jacques-Decour, a parking garage on Rue d'Abbeville, the Marché Biron flea market, the Jardin du Luxembourg, the Pont des Arts, L'Appartement Saint-Martin (near Porte Saint-Martin), and the Maison d'Arrêt de Bois-d'Arcy prison. The publication adds that parts of the fifth episode were filmed in the town of Étretat, which is located along the coast of Normandy.[19] This location is significant because Maurice Leblanc, who created the character Arsène Lupin, lived in the municipality.[20][21][22]

The second set of five episodes were already filmed by the end of 2020 and were released on 11 June 2021.[23][24]

On 18 November 2021, Netflix and Omar Sy confirmed that filming was underway in Paris for the series' third part.[25]

Reception[edit]

Viewership[edit]

Lupin is the first French series to rank among the top ten on Netflix in the United States, reaching number three on 10 January 2021.[26] It was ranked number one in France and many other countries in Europe, including Germany, Austria, Italy, Spain, Denmark, and Sweden, as well as other countries such as Canada, Brazil, Argentina, and South Africa.[27]

As of 31 January 2021, the show was watched by 76 million households, making it the second-most-successful debut ever for an original Netflix show, after Bridgerton.[28][29] In April, Netflix revealed that Lupin was the most watched title on the company's streaming service in the first quarter of 2021.[30]

On 21 July 2021, it was reported that 54 million households watched the second part of the show, a drop compared to the first installment. Lupin still managed to become one of the biggest shows during the second quarter of 2021.[31][32]

Critical response[edit]

On the review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes, the first part holds an approval rating of 98% with an average rating of 7.70/10, based on 44 reviews. The site's critical consensus reads: "Omar Sy effortlessly hits every mark in Lupin, an engrossing espionage thriller that lives up to its source material and then some."[33] On Metacritic, the first part has a score of 82 out of 100 based on 8 reviews.[34]

Writing for The New Paper, Jonathan Roberts stated that "if [Lupin] was a film, it would be a contender for the year's best".[35] Daniel D'Addario of Variety wrote that the cliffhanger at the end of the first series "will leave any viewer who's taken the ride eager for more."[36] Rolling Stone's Alan Sepinwall praised Sy's performance, writing that "it all works because [he] is so magnetic and charming that questioning plot logic feels wildly besides the point."[37] Karen Han of Slate wrote that Lupin "doesn't waste a single minute, packing each and every moment full of suspense".[38]

On Rotten Tomatoes, the second part holds an approval rating of 96%, with an average rating of 8.00/10, based on 27 reviews. The site's critical consensus reads: "Smart, sexy, and stylish, Lupin's highly bingeable second season is perfect summer viewing".[39] On Metacritic, the second part has a score of 80 out of 100 based on 7 reviews.[40]
