Nicolas & Bruno
Nicolas Charlet and Bruno Lavaine, collectively known as Nicolas and Bruno, are a French duo comprising film directors, screenwriters, dialogue writers, and actors. They gained prominence due to their comedic works, such as Message à caractère informatif and In Search Of The Ultra-Sex, as well as feature films Me Two and The Big Bad Wolf. They are known for adapting Frédéric Beigbeder's novel 99 francs into a screenplay starring Jean Dujardin. They wrote and directed the French version of Ricky Gervais' The Office and an original French adaptation of Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement's What We Do in the Shadows.
In the 1990s, Nicolas and Bruno began writing and directing music videos and commercials, including a commercial for chocolate bar "Daim", which they co-wrote with Frédéric Beigbeder for Young & Rubicam. They then worked with French TV producer Thierry Ardisson who elaborated on the concept and created the design of the TV channel Free One.
In 1997, they created Amour, gloire et débats d'idées, a series of sketches broadcast on Le Vrai Journal of Canal+, in which they overdub the characters of a Venezuelan telenovela comedy's pieces about French current political events.
In September 1998, the first Message à caractère informatif was broadcast on the TV show Nulle part ailleurs of Canal+: a series of 318 sketches, where the two authors-directors overdubbed 1970s executives from real corporate films. It featured Jean-Christian Ranu, Didier Leguélec and other Berthiers, fictional characters of a gray and bureaucratic world, symbolized by their fetish company, the COGIP.
They signed the film adaptation (screenplay and dialogue) of Frédéric Beigbeder's novel 99 francs and directed Le Bureau for Canal+, adapted from the British TV series The Office, starring François Berléand.
In 2007, they wrote and directed their first feature film, Me Two, a comedy starring Daniel Auteuil, Alain Chabat and Marina Foïs, produced by Alain Chabat (Chez Wam, released on June 18, 2008).
In October 2008, they wrote and directed the music-video Figures Imposées for Julien Doré, featuring Catherine Deneuve, Eglantine Rembauville, Clément Sibony and Christian Morin.
In May 2009, they directed a non-profit humanitarian music video to benefit traders: Save The Traders, shot with thirty real traders from international marketplaces.
