Netflix orders Lupin S3 for October

Global streaming platform Netflix has renewed French mystery thriller Lupin, starring French-Senegalese actor Omar Sy, for a third season.

Lupin is about a professional thief, the only son of an immigrant from Senegal who came to France to seek a better life for his child. His father was framed for the theft of a diamond necklace by his employer and ended up hanging himself in his prison cell out of shame, leaving his teenage son an orphan.

The show also stars Mamadou Haidara, Ludivine Sagnier, Clotilde Hesme, Nicole Garcia, Antoine Gouy and Hervé Pierre. Lupin S3 will debut on October 5.
