Nolwenn Leroy To Lead TF1 Thriller Series ‘Brocéliande’
Singer-songwriter and actress Nolwenn Leroy will lead Brocéliande, a thriller drama series for France’s TF1. Filming on a six-part series is underway in Brittany.
Leroy will play admired biologist Fanny Legoff, who returns to Brocéliande University from Paris after 15 years in Paris after leaving under suspicion she was involved in the disappearance of her friend Laura. She goes back after receiving a machete with dried blood in the post along with a letter accusing her of being responsible, and takes part in a seminar but a student soon disappears in a similar way to Laura as history repeats.
