    LOS ANGELES: French star Omar Sy has struck a multi-year feature film deal with streaming service Netflix.

    The actor-comedian, who currently headlines smash-hit french series “Lupin”, will develop multiple Netflix Original films through his production company.

    Sy will headline and serve as executive producer on the film projects, Netflix said in a statement.

    “I have experienced Netflix’s collaboration with artists and their passion to bring unique and diverse stories to homes all over the world.

    I am very happy to have the opportunity to extend the relationship and look forward to this next step of our journey together,” the 43-year-old actor said.

    The movie will make its debut on Netflix in 2022.
