If you’ve been binging French originals on Netflix and wondering what’s next on the horizon, here’s something worth bookmarking. A brand-new [French romantic comedy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romantic_comedy_film) titled *Promets-Moi* (which translates to *Promise Me*) is currently in production at Netflix, and from everything we know so far, it’s going to hit differently than your typical feel-good love story.

## **What Is Promets-Moi About?**

The story follows Nina, a young piano prodigy living with an autoimmune disease who is on the verge of abandoning her dreams entirely. Everything changes when she meets Gabriel, a medical intern, who reignites her hope and her will to truly live. It’s a premise that blends the warmth of a classic romance with the emotional weight of a health crisis — think *Five Feet Apart* meets the elegance of French cinema.

What makes this even more compelling is that *Promets-Moi* is a French remake of the 2022 Brazilian Netflix hit *Beyond the Universe* (*Depois do Universo*), which was a massive global success on the platform. The original concept comes from Diego Freitas, and Netflix is clearly betting that the emotional core of that story translates beautifully into a French context — and given the numbers the Brazilian version pulled, it’s a smart bet.

## **Who Is Behind the Camera?**

Director Nicolas Cuche is no stranger to Netflix, having previously helmed *Honeymoon Crasher* — a lighter romantic comedy that performed well on the platform. His return with a more emotionally layered project signals Netflix France’s intent to keep trusted creative voices close while stretching their range. The film is produced by Federation Studios, one of France’s most active production outfits in the streaming space.

## **The Cast**

| Role | Actor |
| --- | --- |
| Nina (Lead) | Romane de Stabenrath (*Anthracite*) |
| Gabriel (Male Lead) | Pablo Cobo (*Stalk*, *Malditos*) |
| Supporting | Pascal Elbé, Frédéric Pierrot, Michael Zindel, Naidra Ayadi, Guilaine Londez |

Romane de Stabenrath is a rising name — previously seen in the Netflix original *Anthracite* — while Pablo Cobo brings some international TV experience from European productions.

*Promets-Moi* fits neatly into Netflix France’s ongoing commitment to the rom-com space, following the success of the Omar Sy-led *French Lover* in 2025.
