A story that began at lycée.
ATOMIC BLUE or the story of a band of punk-minded mates that inspired the director. It was necessary to show a certain kind of youth out of step with the times, like the characters in Jim's group in the film American Pie 🥧 .
The characters in the script:
Chris :
- 24 years old
- 1m73
- astrology: aries
The character of Chris is directly inspired by Jim's character, both in his clumsiness and in his humorous traits. A bachelor, he generally spends more time fantasising about a Disney princess, like Rapunzel, than taking on the responsibilities of young adulthood. At school, he was the one who was afraid of societal issues, because he is the epitome of procrastination. Very close to his friends, it was his idea to bring the trio together for the reunion.
Character playlist :
John :
Profile:
- 25 years old
- 1m70
- astrology: aquarius
John stands out from the other characters because of his rudeness and hyperactivity. He was inspired by the character of Stifler, because although he is out of step in his relationship with others, he is still very endearing as a friend. John's trump card is that he can easily win drinking games while being a master of dad jokes. Beyond his appearance as a dirty cop, he is a very loyal friend.
Character playlist :
Tyler :
Profile:
- 24 years old
- 1m76
- astrology: scorpio
Tyler was directly inspired by Kevin's character. He acts as a mediator in any disputes that may arise between John and Chris. Although he is stubborn and shy, he remains a loyal friend.
