A roaring cast around Mariloup Wolfe in Sur-Vie on Séries+!
Montreal, July 6th, 2016 - Filming has begun on the series Sur-Vie, starring Mariloup Wolfe in the lead role! This new original Séries+ series also boasts a high-caliber cast, including stars Pamela Anderson, Luc Picard, Carole Laure, Monia Chokri, Sébastien Huberdeau, and Anne-Marie Cadieux. Produced by Fabienne Larouche and Michel Trudeau at Aetios Productions, the six-episode miniseries is directed by Yves-Christian Fournier and written by Martine D’Anjou.
“For this powerful production, which Séries+ subscribers are eagerly awaiting, Fabienne Larouche has brought together a renowned cast that will certainly make this series a huge success!” says Brigitte Vincent, Vice President of Programming, with pride and enthusiasm.
Sur-Vie tells the story of actress Frédérique Boileau (Mariloup Wolfe), who returns to Quebec empty-handed after trying to break into Hollywood. With her career on the wane, she and her television producer partner (Sébastien Huberdeau) agree to participate in a new reality show that will put their relationship to the test. The announcement of the couple's presence among the contestants sparks intense interest on social media. The producers (Luc Picard and Monia Chokri) and the writer (Anne-Marie Cadieux) are rubbing their hands with glee... and are already anticipating a huge success! Especially since the reality show boasts international star Raquel Rose (Pamela Anderson), who will act as the game's hostess, whose plot twists are skillfully manipulated to create juicy situations and create a truly spectacular television show. The six-episode, 60-minute series, which recently began production and will be completed in August, will air on Séries+ in 2017.
