Lise Lomi

Lise Lomi, man, if you haven’t heard the name yet, you’re missing out on some real gems in French cinema. She’s not one of those faces you see splashed across every billboard, but once you catch her in something like Les choses qu'on dit, les choses qu'on fait from 2020, she sort of sticks in your mind. There’s something about her delivery—she just nails those little, awkward, honest moments most actors try way too hard to sell. In that film, the whole thing revolves around the messiness of relationships, secrets, and the stuff people never really say out loud. Lise’s role isn’t some background extra either, she adds this layer of rawness that makes all the drama hit harder. Then there’s Le gang des Antillais, which dropped in 2016. It’s got this gritty vibe, pulling you right into the heart of the 1970s, where the Antillean community in France is fighting for a place in a country that barely wants to see them. Lise doesn’t play it safe; she dives right into the tension and that feeling of being caught between two worlds. It’s heavy, but she gives it just enough heart you actually care what happens to the crew. Now, looking ahead, there’s buzz about Squad 36, supposedly hitting in 2025. No spoilers, but word is, Lise is set to show another side of her range—something way more action-packed. If her past work is anything to go by, expect her to steal scenes and leave people talking long after the credits roll.
