‘Lupin’ Part 2 Has a Fiery Twist for Assane’s Son, Raoul — Does He Die?

Jun. 12 2021, Published 10:Fifty five a.m. ET

After Lupin’s Part 1 cliffhanger, fanatics needed to wait 5 long months to find out what took place to Raoul, Assane’s son with Claire. So, does Raoul die in Lupin Part 2? The French thriller’s 2d batch of episodes hit Netflix on June 11, 2021, and we’ve got the scoop.

Part 2 of 'Lupin' reveals Raoul’s fate.

In the Part 1 finale, Assane (Omar Sy) and Claire (Ludivine Sagnier) lose observe of Raoul (Etan Simon) all through their shuttle to Etretat. And when Part 2 picks up, the former couple are searching frantically for their boy. Guedira (Soufiane Guerrab), a detective tracking Assane, may be in Etretat, and he tells Assane that he witnessed Léonard (Adama Niane) force off with Raoul.

(Léonard, in case you forgot, is one of the henchmen running for Pellegrini (Hervé Pierre), the rich businessman who framed Assane’s father, Babakar, for robbery.)

Assane and Guedira observe Léonard and Raoul to an abandoned château in the countryside, and Assane fights the murderer and even pushes him out a window. Guedira survives the fall, on the other hand, and units fire to his automobile, the similar automotive where he had Raoul trapped in the trunk. By the time Assane finds the vehicle, it’s engulfed in flames, and Assane assumes the worst.

Part 2’s second episode, alternatively, reveals that Guedira rescued Raoul while Assane used to be inside of the house. Raoul isn’t out of threat yet, even though: Guedira takes the teenager to Dumont (Vincent Garanger), no longer realizing that the police commissioner is in Pellegrini’s pocket.

But Assane gets the higher hand by way of phoning Dumont — together with his voice disguised — to report a robbery. Dumont takes Raoul outside, where Assane is ready to rescue the boy.

Part 3 of 'Lupin' is on the approach.

The 5 episodes of Part 2 conclude Netflix’s Season 1 order for the display, but a website for the show reveals Lupin “will go back for a Part 3.” And indeed, Vogue studies that Netflix has renewed the show for a 2d season, which will also be break up into two portions, which means we’ll get a Part 4, too! Unfortunately, there’s no word on when Netflix will drop new episodes.

In the intervening time, the streaming platform is taking part in Lupin’s luck: Netflix reviews that seventy six million families around the world watched Lupin in the 4 weeks following its January premiere. That viewership made Lupin the largest new collection on Netflix in the world that quarter, in keeping with Adweek.

“The display used to be no longer a watered-down French show — it’s an overly French display,” Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos defined, per the magazine. “As you inform stories from around the globe, the more authentically local they are, the much more likely they're to play world wide as a result of other people acknowledge the authenticity of the storytelling.”

Omar Sy, meanwhile, is simply playing the journey. “We sought after to show what the French have been succesful of in terms of making a chain, but frankly we didn’t be expecting it to do what it has,” he instructed The Guardian in a recent interview.
