Apple TV has commissioned a second season of Carême, its award-nominated drama series inspired by the life of celebrated French chef Antonin Carême.
Starring Benjamin Voisin in the title role, the provocative French-language show debuted last year and has scooped an International Emmy Award nomination for Drama Series.
It’s inspired by Ian Kelly’s book ‘Cooking for Kings: The Life of Antonin Carême – The First Celebrity Chef’ and portrays Carême as a man whose talent and ambitions attract the attention of powerful politicians who use him as a spy for France.
Filming on the second outing starts in Paris next week, with Jérémie Renier and Alice Da Luz also confirmed to be returning.
