Racer and the Jailbird Trailer

Michaël R. Roskam‘s Racer and the JailbirdLe Fidèle (2017) teaser trailer stars Matthias Schoenaerts, Adèle Exarchopoulos, Kerem Can, Sam Louwyck, and Stefaan Degand. Racer and the Jailbird‘s plot synopsis: “Roskam’s highly anticipated film takes place in the fast-paced world of racing, and centers on a story of love at first sight when gangster Gino aka ‘Gigi’ (Matthias Schoenaerts) meets Benedicte aka ‘Bibi’ (Adèle Exarchopoulos), a wealthy and fearless racing driver. Gigi and Bibi fall madly in love, but with fate stacked against them their loyalties will be pushed to the limit. How much can their love endure to save what may already be lost?”

I have been hoping that Adèle Exarchopoulos would find great parts to play following her star-making role in Blue is the Warmest Color. It looks like she has.

I watched this trailer before reading the description for the film. I had no idea that Adèle was a racer car driver in this film. That plot point and how it is integrated into the film raises this film beyond a standard heist film.

One question: if Benedicte aka ‘Bibi’ (Adèle Exarchopoulos) is wealthy and is in love with Gino aka ‘Gigi’ (Matthias Schoenaerts), why doesn’t Gigi marry Bibi so he’ll be wealthy (thus he won’t have a need to “do jobs”)?
