Summary: The anticipation surrounding the upcoming comedy film “Certains l’aiment chauves,” starring Kevin Adams and Michael Youn, is met with a wave of skepticism online. Comments on social media reflect a general discontent with the film, which is set to release on July 16.
Certains l’aiment chauves: A New Comedy by Kev Adams and Michael Youn
On July 16, 2025, audiences will see Kev Adams, Michaël Youn, Rayane Bensetti, Chantal Ladesou, Faustine Koziel, and Clara Joly in the comedy “Certains l’aiment chauves,” a title that pays homage to the classic film featuring Marilyn Monroe. However, whether it will reach the same cultural significance as Billy Wilder’s masterpiece is up for debate.
The plot centers around Zac, a man in his thirties who learns that he will be completely bald in six months. In his struggle to combat this fate, he seeks help from his uncle Joseph, who has firsthand experience with balding. Zac finds himself navigating through bizarre encounters, shock treatments, and questionable strategies in a comedic battle against destiny.
To promote their film at the Cannes Film Festival, Adams and Youn made headlines by donning bald caps, emulating their characters’ looks on the red carpet.
Mixed Reactions from the Online Community
On social media platform X, users did not hold back their opinions on the film’s promotional material, storyline, and the actors’ red carpet appearance at Cannes. The consensus among many seems to be overwhelmingly negative toward “Certains l’aiment chauves.”
In fact, I think French films are just a way to launder money. I can’t see any other reason.

It’s frustrating that four popular comedies a year that no one goes to see paint such a poor picture of French cinema.
