Synopsis
The Wannabes (Les Vedettes, 2022) is a French comedy you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Jonathan Barré and starring Grégoire Ludig and David Marsais. Runtime: 102 minutes.
Daniel and Stéphane sell things for a living and share the same sales floor. That is where the common ground ends. They loathe each other. But both are buried in debt, and game shows are giving away real money — so despite every instinct, they decide to team up and compete together. The plan goes about as smoothly as you would expect from two people who can barely stand to be in the same room.
Barré built the whole thing on a single reliable engine: a forced partnership between people who are fundamentally incompatible. Ludig and Marsais have real comic timing together, and the film earns its laughs without overexplaining the jokes. Light, quick, and a good deal more fun than most buddy-comedy premises on paper.
