I've always had a lot of questions about France's obsession with dubbing films, so I sat down with Jean-Pierre Michael, who is the French voice of Brad Pitt and Keanu Reeves, to find out more.
He explains whether he voices each actor differently, if he gets recognized in daily life, and what happens if another actor were to voice Brad Pitt (it happened once, it wasn't pretty!)
Follow Jean-Pierre on Instagram for a glimpse into the life of a French actor in Paris: https://www.instagram.com/jpmofficiel/?hl=en
