Apple TV announced the new seven-episode French-language thriller, “La Décision,” starring César Award nominee Raphaël Personnaz (“The French Minister,” “The Richest Woman in the World”) and SAG Award winner Diane Kruger (“Inglourious Basterds,” “Saint-Exupéry”), directed by “Carême”’s Martin Bourboulon (“Les Trois Mousquetaires”) and Louis Farge (“Culte,” “Eldorado”). César Award winners Sami Bouajila (“Ganglands,” “A Son”), Marina Hands of the Comédie Française (“Lady Chatterley,” “Off Season”), and Fanny Sidney (“Call My Agent!”) also join the cast.

Produced for Apple TV by Solab Films, award-winning White Lion Films, a Mediawan company, and M Films, “La Décision” is executive produced by César Award nominee Nicolas Tiry (“Atlantic Bar”), Noor Sadar (“Machine,” “Malditos”), and Martin Bourboulon. Based on an original idea by Bourboulon and Tiry, the series is created by Marc Dugain and Corinne Garfin (“Coeurs Noirs”), Lamara Leprêtre Habib (“Dans l’Ombre”), and Xabi Molia (“Les Sentinelles”).

In this riveting race against the clock, the life of the French President (Personnaz) is turned upside down when an eight-year-old girl goes missing. While the public is shocked over the disappearance of the young girl, the tragedy affects the President personally, as she is his illegitimate daughter, born of a secret affair unknown to his wife and confidante Nora (Kruger). When the kidnapping becomes a matter of state, the entire Élysée apparatus intervenes to find the little girl—but who can the President trust behind the closed doors of the Palace? He has risen to the pinnacle of power on the strength of his honesty and integrity, but must he betray the very values to which he owes his election? Torn between his private life and public responsibilities, the President is now plunged into a whirlwind of false friendships, unrequited love, power struggles, political games, and espionage.

The series is the latest in French programming from Apple TV, which includes the new thriller “The Hunt,” starring Benoît Magimel and Mélanie Laurent, premiering on December 3, 2025, and the International Emmy Award-winning French-Japanese drama “Drops of God,” inspired by the bestselling manga from award-winning Tadashi Agi and Shu Okimoto, starring Fleur Geffrier and Tomohisa Yamashita, with a second season premiering on January 21, 2026; as well as “Carême,” following the thrilling story of the world’s first celebrity chef, Antonin Carême, starring Benjamin Voisin, who rose from humble beginnings in Paris to the height of culinary stardom in Napoleon’s Europe, among others.
