APPLE TV'S CAREME
19TH CENTURY SET CULINARY SERIES
Two years ago I told you that Benjamin Voisin will lead Apple TV's new French historical original series CAREME on the famous 19th century chef turned spy and now the popular streamer is ready to launch the show on
April 30th. Set in the 19th century, the eight episode series, directed by Martin Bourboulon who helmed The Three Musketeers, will follow the
sprawling story of Antonin Carême, who rose from humble beginnings in Paris to the height of culinary stardom in Napoleon's Europe. He not only became 
an iconic chef, he also became a spy for France as his talent and ambitions attracted the attention of powerful politicians, including Napoleon. The series
will shed light on the miserable reality of 19th century kitchens, contrasting with the opulence of the mansions and sophisticated of aristocrats. Jérémie 
Renier will play Charles-Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord, a Machiavellian diplomat who was minister of foreign affairs in the government of Napoleon
Bonaparte; and Lyna Khoudri will appear as Henriette, Carême's lover and most dangerous threat. The series is inspired by Ian Kelly book "Cooking for Kings: The Life of Antonin Carême – The First Celebrity Chef"!
