Adapted from the 80s manga, the series Cat’s Eyes has won over French audiences. Broadcast every Monday since 11 November on TF1, the eight episodes of the first season could give rise to a second instalment.
For 40 years, Tsukasa Hôjô’s manga and cartoon Cat’s Eyes have galvanised the whole world. Building on this history, Big Band Story has co-produced the series for TF1, in association with Prime Video and ZDF, and with the participation of Newen Connect, Radio Télévision Suisse (RTS) and RTL tvi. Directed by Alexandre Laurent (Les Combattantes, Le Bazar de la Charité), this new version of Cat’s Eyes has become the most expensive series in TF1’s history, with a budget of 25 million euros. And the investment seems to have paid off.
Adventure in Paris
The series traces the origins of Cat’s Eyes. The three Chamade sisters, Alexia (played by Claire Romain), Tamara (Camille Lou) and Sylia (Constance Labbé), reunite after years apart. In 2023, in Paris, a work that belonged to their father, who died ten years earlier in a mysterious fire at his art gallery, resurfaces at an exhibition at the Eiffel Tower. To find out what really happened to him, the siblings improvise as burglars to steal the work that could answer their questions. BRB captain Quentin Chapuis (played by MB14) sets out to arrest them, unaware that one of the sisters is his long-time love, Tamara.
