First Look Teaser for Dual 'De Gaulle' Movies Starring Simon Abkarian

"When our hearts go boom, the whole world goes boom, and stirs up rage." France's Path revealed an epic teaser for a dual set of movies about the iconic French president Charles de Gaulle. Yes – the same man that the Paris airport is named after. French filmmaker Antonin Baudry directs two back-to-back movies called De Gaulle: Tilting Iron & De Gaulle: The Sovereign Edge which will arrive in French theaters next summer - in June & July. Literally back-to-back, which is the proper way to do it when you have two movies like this (instead of waiting or year or two inbetween them). A two-part film about Charles de Gaulle - a French general & statesman who led the Free French Forces against Nazi Germany & Vichy France in WWII and chaired the Provisional Government of the French Republic from 1944 to 1946 to restore democracy in France. The two films will follow De Gaulle's life & political commitment between 1940 and 1945, and trace his development towards a political career. Starring Simon Abkarian as de Gaulle, with a huge ensemble cast including Simon Russell Beale, Florian Lesieur, Benoît Magimel, Mathieu Kassovitz, Loïc Corbery de la Comédie-Française, Anamaria Vartolomei, Niels Schneider, Félix Kysyl, & Karim Leklou.
