Actor famous for Amélie, The Bureau and La Haine, which he also directed and wrote, reportedly in a ‘worrying’ condition
Kassovitz was taken to hospital in Kremlin-Bicêtre, according to authorities in Essonne, south of the French capital.
Kassovitz wrote, directed and starred in La Haine at the age of 27, alongside Vincent Cassel, Hubert Koundé and Saïd Taghmaoui. The film follows three men over 24 hours after a riot in Paris and won Kassovitz the best director prize at Cannes film festival. It also won the César for best film, France’s equivalent of the Oscars.
Kassovitz also starred as the love interest Nino in Amélie; a Mossad explosives expert in Steven Spielberg’s Munich; and more recently as the lead in French spy thriller series The Bureau, which has been a hit around the world. His most recent film, Visions, sees him play the husband of Diane Kruger, an airline pilot who begins to have an affair with her ex-girlfriend. The film premiered at the Angoulême Francophone film festival two weeks ago.
