Julien De Saint Jean

Julien De Saint Jean has been making some serious waves in French cinema lately. The guy’s got range, you can’t deny it. In The Count of Monte-Cristo (2024), he dives headfirst into a world of revenge, betrayal, and high-society drama—classic Alexandre Dumas, but with a fresh energy that keeps you glued to the screen. Julien’s take on Edmond Dantès brings a kind of vulnerability you don’t always see in these epic revenge tales. The film doesn’t just stick to old-school storytelling either; it leans into the emotional fallout and messy relationships that come with betrayal, making it feel way more real. Move over to Delicious (2025), and suddenly you’re not in the world of vengeance and prison escapes anymore. Nope, now you’re soaking up the passion and chaos of the culinary world. The movie gets into the nitty-gritty of ambition, creativity, and the relentless pursuit of perfection in the kitchen. Foodies will eat this up, but even if you’re not a gourmet, the drama behind the scenes is wild enough to keep anyone entertained. Julien’s performance here is lighter, more playful, but still packed with heart. Then you’ve got Arrête Avec Tes Mensonges (2022), which is a whole different vibe—more introspective, dealing with love, secrets, and all the complicated emotions that come with them. It’s quieter, more intimate, but honestly, it hits just as hard. Julien slips into these roles like he was born for them, always finding that perfect balance between strength and sensitivity. If you’re looking for an actor who’s unpredictable—in all the best ways—this is your guy.
