The release date for “Kaamelott – Second Installment (Part 2)” and the full cast for both parts have been unveiled. Alexandre Astier has revealed this eagerly awaited news, complete with some exciting surprises!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Following the teaser poster revealed on July 23, Alexandre Astier took to his keyboard in early August to share some great news with franchise fans! He posted on Instagram and X to announce the exact release date for Part 2: it’s set for a cinematic release on November 11, 2026. It’s worth noting that Part 1 will hit theaters starting October 22, 2025.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Written, directed, and starred in by Alexandre Astier, the two parts making up Kaamelott – Second Installment were filmed back-to-back over an eight-month period starting last summer. The filming was a major undertaking, requiring a lot of special effects.<\/p>\n

The Highly Anticipated Return, a Major Absence, and New Faces<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

King Arthur has revealed the complete cast for these two installments. There are several returns, including one that many hoped for: Simon Astier, who played Yvain, the Lion Knight and Arthur’s brother-in-law, a character missing from “KV1”, just like Kadoc of Vannes, brother of the hilarious Karadoc, who was also absent from the First Installment.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Virginie Ledoyen joins the franchise, stepping into a previously established role, that of Anna of Tintagel, previously played by Anouk Grinberg. Also noteworthy are the additions of Franck Dubosc as Alfarn and Redouane Bougheraba as Silas!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

However, there is one significant absence: Perceval of Wales, played by Franck Pitiot, is missing. Has he gone off alone on a quest for the Grail in Arthur’s name? We hope one of the two films will address this surprising absence.<\/p>\n

A Message from Alexandre Astier<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Along with the cast, Alexandre Astier shares his intentions with the fans: “The second installment of Kaamelott is the chapter where Arthur sends his knights \u2014 veterans or newcomers, longtime companions or this year’s recruits \u2014 on an Adventure. It involves a colossal number of characters, grouped into teams, leaving the Round Table to prove their worth and courage around the world.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I wouldn’t have compressed all this into two hours<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

<\/p>\n

This installment is lengthy, consisting of numerous parallel stories that deserve attention. It is indeed a unique installment: a single clear unit of time, the same worlds, the same adventurers… and especially, a single filming session, lasting over eight months. There are no ellipses between these two parts, and they can ultimately be viewed one after the other as a single long film. Like a big book split in two, a long show with an intermission.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

For my part, the saga began with the writing of the short film Dies Ir\u00e6 in 2001. Nearly 25 years later, Kaamelott continues to reflect what I want to convey at the time I write a new page: at thirty, at forty, at fifty years old today… Stories that come and go, that disappear or emerge, like the actors: those who are no longer here, those who are still here, those who have joined us, those who were gone for a while and have returned…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

One of my first pleasures as a director is to welcome new actors into the world of K<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

<\/p>\n

I must confess that one of my first pleasures as a director is welcoming new actors into the world of K, which has become somewhat of an institution for some. Young actresses and actors, often a bit intimidated at the thought of joining the ‘historics’, find their place among us \u2014 perhaps for a long time, who knows?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

What matters is to keep the writing of Kaamelott constantly evolving, adapting it to the natural constraints of a project that spans decades. And to consider these constraints as nudges from fate to the author…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Destiny \u2014 let’s capitalize it \u2014 plays a significant role in the making of a saga. Perhaps because a saga is barely a life in miniature. It’s important to listen to it! Signed AA.”<\/p>\n
