A French adaptation of Beta Film‘s International Emmy-winning Turkish thriller series Persona is in the works with a female protagonist.
Mémoire Vive is starring Six Women’s Clémentine Célarié as Esther Lefevre, the reinterpreted female lead from the Turkish series, which has been greenlit for a second run. The French version is being produced by Calt Studio for M6.
The Turkish original stars International Emmy-winner Haluk Bilginer as the antihero Agâh. In the second season, Agâh, who suffers from Alzheimer’s disease, regains his memories piece by piece when his daughter takes him into her care. And while Agâh is looking for a way to handle his new-found freedom, he doesn’t realize yet that he has made some powerful enemies who yearn for revenge.
Both Persona and Mémoire Vive are entering production during this half of 2024, with the former filming 22 episodes and the latter four.
Beta is handling sales for both series and revealed the news during a screening at last night’s Canneseries. Beta’s Operation Sabre is in competition at the Cannes confab and the German major is also pushing ORF adventure series Rise of the Raven.
