I was even contacted for a Bollywood film, and I was ready to go, says Cassel.
I didnt know anything about opera.
I felt like I was one of the characters in that film, he says.

There was something very theatrical about it.
I almost felt like I was working in a commedia dellarte production says Cassel.
Im over the moon that the film exists.

If you have one, two, three films like that in your career, thats already an achievement.
Mathieu Kassovitz is even staging a musical inspired by the film and Im hoping to see it soon.
Of course, things change.
To participate in something like that as an actor is fantastic.
It was always a miniseries and that was why I took it on.
I wasnt interested in working on something with a second, or third season.
I was like, Lets do it!
