LOL 2.0: Anne’s Golden Hour

At age 55, Anne is savoring a rare stretch of freedom after her children leave home. That quiet is interrupted when her 23-year-old daughter Louise moves back in after a string of professional failures and romantic disappointments. Then her son Théo drops a life update that shifts the mood: Anne is about to become a grandmother. The return to domestic routine becomes a comedy of miscommunications and small awakenings as Anne tests limits, negotiates space, and redefines what independence looks like when life keeps surprising her. The film follows her as she learns that aging does not pause growth, and that growing up can happen at any stage of life, often with a laugh. The tone stays buoyant even as it mines real-life anxieties.

Directed by Lisa Azuelos, the film is a 2026 French comedy with a story by Frédéric Da and Thaïs Alessandrin. Sophie Marceau graces the screen as Anne, with Thaïs Alessandrin returning as Louise, joined by Vincent Elbaz, Alexandre Astier, and Françoise Fabian in supporting roles. The film features vibrant dialogue and a warm, contemporary Parisian setting.
