Lupin, Netflix's French mystery thriller, became a surprise hit on the streaming platform at the start of 2021 when its debut series launched. It was soon awarded a 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes and was in the top 10 of Netflix's most popular series globally.

Lupin stars Omar Sy as the protagonist Assane Diop – a professional thief inspired by the fictional thief Arsène Lupin. Diop seeks revenge on a wealthy family, who unjustly framed his father for a crime he did not commit.
