It is a French production that was filmed (and takes place) in Paris, but the dialogue is in English.
The actors are French (Jean Reno as "Jo", Leslie Caron), Canadian (Jill Hennessy), Irish (Orla Brady), Nigerian-British (Wunmi Mosaku), English (Sean Pertwee, Olivia D'Abo, Sienna Guillory, Chris Brazier, Tom Austen), Welsh (Celyn Jones), Icelandic (Heida Reed). It was created by a team of people from Canada and France and co-produced by French and Belgium concerns. It first aired last winter (northern hemisphere) in Italy and very shortly later in Poland, Greece, and nearly every Spanish-speaking country in South America, Central America and the Caribbean. In the Spring it was aired in Spain, Belgium, France and Portugal and recently aired in Ireland and the UK. It is currently airing in South Africa and Austria.
Did you get all that? I will be giving an unannounced quiz on this later. Here's a practice question:
What 3 English-speaking nations have no involvement with this at all?
A - Australia, New Zealand, Norway (yes - 89% of the Norwegian populace are fluent in English).
B - Australia, United States, Belize.
C - United States, New Zealand, Guyana.
D - New Zealand, Australia, The Netherlands (90% of the Dutch are fluent in English).
E - All of the above
