At last year's Tudum celebration by Netflix, fans were treated to an exciting sneak peek of Lupin Part 3, the highly anticipated next chapter in the captivating French original series featuring the master thief Assane Diop (Omar Sy). Now, as the event returns, Assane once again takes center stage, Netflix has unveiled a thrilling new clip from Lupin Part 3, showcasing Assane Diop's perilous adventure as he navigates the rooftops of France.
In Part 3, Assane finds himself compelled to go into hiding after finally exacting his revenge on Hubert Pellegrini (Hervé Pierre) in Part 2. As the son of a Senegalese immigrant, Assane became an orphan when his father was wrongly accused of stealing Pellegrini's prized necklace and subsequently murdered in prison. Now, he must prioritize the safety of his own family. Overwhelmed by the emotional distance between them, Assane decides to return to Paris, hoping to persuade his wife Claire (Ludivine Sagnier) and son Raoul (Etan Simon) to escape with him to a country where they can find refuge. However, given his widespread notoriety, he becomes a wanted man, constantly risking his life, regardless of his whereabouts.
The teaser effectively portrays the immense peril that Assane faces. Fearing the relentless pursuit of the police, he chooses to evade capture by skillfully maneuvering across the treacherous rooftops, where he can easily blend into the shadows. Unfortunately, his path is obstructed by two vigilant lookouts, with one even armed with a deadly sniper rifle, positioned strategically on the rooftop, anticipating his every move. As Assane vanishes from their line of sight, they hastily call for reinforcements, leaving the thief frantically searching for an escape route. Amidst the tension, he narrowly slips off the sloping rooftops, precariously clinging to the edge with only his fingertips. The clip concludes on a nerve-wracking cliffhanger as Assane contemplates a daring leap to a neighboring building. Whether he manages to elude capture or is once again caught by the relentless police force, fans will have to eagerly await the release of Part 3 to discover the outcome.
