Emily in Paris star Lucas Bravo is the protagonist of Prime Video's upcoming heist romantic movie Freedom from director Mélanie Laurent.
Coming to the streamer on Friday, November 1, the film is inspired by the real-life story of robber Bruno Sulak, played by Bravo.
Sulak is described as "a suave and daring criminal who stole hearts alongside riches" in the official synopsis.

"Known for his charm and finesse, Sulak masterminded daring heists without firing a single shot," the movie's logline continues.
But as his infamy grew, so did a relentless pursuit led by George Moréas (Yvan Attal), a tenacious police commissioner with a knack for outsmarting criminals.

"As Moréas closes in, Sulak's escapes from prison become legendary, fuelled by a lust for freedom, and a burning desire for his lover Annie," the synopsis adds.

"Amidst the chaos of their criminal spree, Sulak and Annie become the ultimate symbols of defiance in the most exhilarating game of cat and mouse that gripped the nation."
Freedom marks Laurent's sixth movie as a director, with the filmmaker also co-writing the script with her writing partner Chris Deslandes.
The first images from the film released by Prime Video show Bravo as Sulak robbing a store at gunpoint, carrying stolen jewels with an accomplice, and spending time with Annie, played by Léa Luce Busato.

Bravo will reprise the role of Gabriel in the upcoming fourth chapter of Netflix's Emily in Paris, expected to pick up where things left off in that twisty season three finale.
After an on-again, off-again connection with Emily, chef Gabriel will have a lot on his plate as his now ex-girlfriend Camille (Camille Razat) is pregnant.
First-look pictures from the upcoming instalment tease that Emily will still be torn between Gabriel, who'd been left at the altar by Camille in season 3, and Alfie (Lucien Laviscount), left heartbroken by the revelation that Emily and Gabriel may be more than friends.
Freedom will become available to stream on Prime Video on November 1.
