Production
Le Règne animal is the second feature film by French director Thomas Cailley, after releasing his award-winning debut feature Love at First Fight in 2014. He co-wrote the screenplay with Pauline Munier based on an original idea by Pauline Munier. It is set in the Gironde department, where the filmmaker grew up and where his first film was staged (Landes de Gascogne). The screenplay was written before the COVID-19 pandemic. As with Love at First Fight, Pierre Guyard of Nord-Ouest Films served as the film’s producer, while his brother David served as director of photography and Lilian Corbeille handled editing. The principal roles were performed by Romain Duris, Adèle Exarchopoulos and Paul Kircher. Duris indicated that he would play one of the surviving beings. He praised the script, but said the film would feature a lot of special effects, which would not make it easy for an actor.
Shooting began in May 2022 and took place entirely in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, largely divided between Landes, Dordogne and Gironde. The filming began in the commune of Fleix and moved across the banks of the river Lot in Lot-et-Garonne, particularly in the communes of Le Temple-sur-Lot and Castelmoron-sur-Lot. Production costs have been estimated between 13 and 15 million euros. In total, filming was to last 57 days, until mid-August. The project received financial support from the Centre national du cinéma et de l’image animée (CNC), a government agency responsible for promoting cinema.
Release
The film was selected to be screened as the opening film of the Un Certain Regard section of the 76th Cannes Film Festival, where it had its world premiere on 17 May 2023. The film is scheduled to be theatrically released in France by StudioCanal on 4 October 2023. It was also invited at the 28th Busan International Film Festival in ‘Open Cinema’ section and will be screened in October 2023.
