This paper examines the casting strategy behind the 2021 French comedy Chacun son tour , directed by Daniel Auteuil. Specifically, it analyzes the integration of Spanish Hollywood icon Antonio Banderas into a distinctly French narrative landscape. By juxtaposing Banderas's star persona—rooted in "Latin lover" tropes and Hollywood prestige—against the film's themes of rural tradition and generational succession, this study explores how transnational casting functions as a narrative device. The paper argues that Banderas’s role serves not merely as a marketing ploy, but as a crucial signifier of otherness that catalyzes the French protagonist's self-reflection, thereby highlighting the tension between local cultural heritage and globalized modernity in contemporary European cinema. I. INTRODUCTION The landscape of contemporary European cinema is increasingly defined by "transnational stardom"—the practice of casting internationally recognized actors to secure funding and distribution across borders. Daniel Auteuil’s Chacun son tour (2021), the third installment in a trilogy that began with Le Prénom and Le Premier Jour du reste de ta vie , serves as a prime case study.

Unlike the antagonists of the previous films in the trilogy, Banderas’s character is not a villain but a mirror. His casting creates a binary between the "Latin" archetype—passionate, vocal, and animated—and the French bourgeois ideal, often characterized in these films as repressed or anxious. This paper analyzes specific scenes where this cultural friction generates comedic tension, arguing that the humor derives not just from dialogue, but from the clash of performing styles (the French theatrical tradition vs. Banderas’s more physical, Hollywood-influenced style). The film resolves its tensions not by expelling the foreign element, but by integrating it. The casting of Banderas suggests a shift in French cinematic narratives regarding the "étranger" (foreigner). Rather than serving as a threat to the French family unit, the Banderas character facilitates the resolution of intergenerational trauma.
