French director Alexandre Astier recently unveiled an impressive cast for Kaamelott: Part Two, delighting fans with the lineup. However, the notable absence of a beloved character has sparked considerable discussion among followers of the franchise.
Fans Eagerly Anticipate the Return of Kaamelott
Kaamelott represents the culmination of Alexandre Astier’s artistic journey, with its film series marking a significant chapter in his creative endeavors. The first part, released in 2021, received a warm reception, especially among local audiences. After a lengthy four-year wait, fans are finally set to experience the sequel.
Kaamelott: Part Two is set to premiere on October 22. Fans are anxious to see what Arthur will do after reclaiming his throne. Will he seek out Lancelot? While details on the film’s plot remain scarce, it is known that Arthur will spend some time underwater—a fact that Astier prepared for by training to hold his breath for extended periods. Fans have found some solace in the announcement of the cast, although a significant absence has raised eyebrows.
Perceval is Not Among the Cast
Astier recently shared the casting announcement for the two upcoming Kaamelott films on his Instagram account. The reveal was overwhelmingly welcomed by series enthusiasts, especially with the return of Yvain, Arthur’s brother-in-law played by Simon Astier. However, a major character from the saga has notably been missing: Perceval.
Portrayed by Franck Pitiot, Perceval is a legendary figure within Kaamelott. His absence has stirred significant conversation among fans, with some expressing strong reactions, given that he has been a part of the series since its inception. Nonetheless, others speculate that he may make a grand reappearance in the second part. Indeed, some fans anticipate that Perceval might embark on a quest for the Grail during the first part, as, in the original narrative, he is the one who ultimately finds it. There’s a possibility that Alexandre Astier has a surprising twist in store by omitting his name from the cast…only time will tell.
