It’s a very beautiful thriller for children but a simple parenthesis in the break of this very discreet actress. Audrey Tautou returns to theaters on Wednesday, lending her voice to the animated film Nina and the secret of the hedgehog,

The unforgettable Amélie Poulain plays Nina’s mother, a little girl in search of a treasure hidden in the old factory of her unemployed father (Guillaume Canet), helped by an imaginary hedgehog (Guillaume Bats), hero of his evening stories.

This is the first time that French spectators will hear the voice of Audrey Tautou in cinema since 2018 and the release of the film Freelywhile his last feature film, The jesus rollsspin-off you Big Lebowskiwas not released in French cinemas after being a flop in the United States in 2020.

Her admirers will also be able to see her again in the flesh from January 19 to 25 at La Seine musicale, near Paris, for a reading of Charlotte, the book by David Foenkinos dedicated to the Jewish painter Charlotte Salomon. But not (yet) in a new film.

“I don’t want to return immediately to my job as an actress,” she explained this week in a rare interview with L’Obs. “I’m just swerving.”adds the one who took a step back to “enjoy” of her daughter, adopted in Vietnam in 2019. “I can’t imagine leaving my house at 6 a.m. and returning at 9 p.m., five days a week for three months. Depriving myself of my child for a shoot is a no!”justifies the forty-year-old who currently prefers to devote herself to photography and drawing, illustrating a children’s book that she wrote.

It’s because she can’t “refuse nothing” to the creators of Nina and the secret of the hedgehogJean-Loup Felicioli and Alain Gagnol, that Audrey Tautou joined their project, after having already participated in their previous film, Phantom Boyin 2015. “They are talented and lovely directors. And, as for Charlotte, I knew it wouldn’t take me much time.”.

“What I love about Audrey is the energy she manages to convey, the nuances in her voice and, what’s more, she has a lot of humorexplains Alain Gagnol to AFP. She has a very sparkling voice. For the animation, it’s really perfect”. The opportunity for the director to also pay tribute to Guillaume Bats, a comedian who died this year at the age of 36, who lends his voice to the hedgehog, a black and white character inspired by the first Mickey Mouse.
