SND sells 'Trivial' to Japan

French sales company SND/M6 has sold all Japanese rights to New Select on Sophie Marceau’s “Trivial,” a France-set suspenser, which the French thesp co-wrote, helmed and starred in, playing opposite Christophe Lambert.

In an homage to Hollywood of yore, Lambert plays Lt. Jacques Renard, an on the rocks cop, tipped off to an apparent murder by a femme fatale limned by Marceau.

In a second Japanese sale, Hexagon has taken Japanese rights to Gilles Paquet-Brenner’s “Pretty Things.”

Set against the Paris-music scene, the identity theft thriller allowed Marion Cotillard to give early proof of her acting panache in a double role as two identical twin sisters.

Sale, said SND’s Gegory Chambet, rolled off Cotillard’s recent Academy Award actress win for “La Vie en rose.”

Canada’s Equinoxe and Romania’s Media Pro have also taken Guillaume Nicloux’s twisting thriller “The Key,” toplining Guillaume Canet, director-star of international hit “Tell No One.”
