Franck Dubosc Joining ‘Camping Paradis’? Laurent Ournac Spills the Beans!

It’s one of TF1’s most cherished series: Camping Paradis. For two decades, Tom Delormes—played by Laurent Ournac—and his team have been welcoming campers with wild and intriguing stories at their campground in Martigues, located in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region.

If you’re a fan of the show, you’ve likely noticed that many of these tourists are portrayed on screen by famous personalities (including Laurent Ournac’s own family, who make occasional cameos across several episodes). And if you’re wondering whether Franck Dubosc, the quintessential camping icon, might join the cast, Laurent Ournac has his take on the matter!

Laurent Ournac’s Dream: Acting Alongside Franck Dubosc in Camping Paradis

In an interview with Télé-Loisirs, Laurent Ournac, who recently spoke about the special anniversary episode of Camping Paradis, expressed his hope to see the award-winning actor join the cast: “It would be a fun nod to the past,” he told reporters. Interestingly, the movie Camping premiered in 2006, the same year the series featuring Laurent Ournac debuted. And twenty years later, Franck Dubosc’s famous catchphrase from the film is still popularly used.

However, the actor remains realistic; it’s unlikely that Franck Dubosc would agree to appear in a TV series, especially as he is currently preparing for his next feature film. “It’s a bit of a long shot,” he mentioned. Message received?

Another Actor He’d Love to Work With

BUT Franck Dubosc isn’t the only one on Laurent Ournac’s wish list for guest stars. Joining this illustrious name is another beloved French actor and comedian: Alban Ivanov. In the same interview, Laurent Ournac reveals a surprising fact: “I was his improv coach. It would be fun to reconnect after all these years.” So, will the actor recently featured in Philippe Lacheau’s Marsipulami film return the favor?
