Apple TV has announced its newest international original, La Décision. The seven-episode French political thriller dives deep into scandal, power, and personal turmoil at the highest level of government. It stars Diane Kruger and Raphaël Personnaz, two of France’s most acclaimed actors.
The story begins when the eight-year-old daughter of the French president is kidnapped. However, there’s a shocking twist — the girl is his secret child, born from an affair unknown to his wife and closest advisors. What starts as a private tragedy soon turns into a national crisis. The president must now balance his moral duty with the weight of personal guilt.
Power, Secrets, and Survival
As the kidnapping becomes a matter of state, the Elysée Palace steps in. The boundaries between emotion and political obligation begin to blur. The president, known for his integrity, faces impossible choices that threaten his career, family, and country.
Apple describes La Décision as an intense look at leadership under pressure — one where power, truth, and loyalty collide. Moreover, the series blends the tension of a thriller with the emotion of a family drama, keeping viewers on edge from start to finish.
Behind the Production
La Décision is produced by Solab Films, White Lion Films, and M Films, with executive producers Nicholas Tiry, Noor Sadar, and Bourboulon. The show joins Apple TV’s expanding lineup of French-language originals. Notably, it follows acclaimed titles such as Drops of God, which won the International Emmy Award for Best French-Japanese Drama, and The Hunt, set to premiere later this year.
Expanding Global Storytelling
With La Décision, Apple TV continues to strengthen its international presence. By investing in European productions, Apple aims to deliver stories that combine cultural authenticity with cinematic quality. This strategy has already proven effective, allowing Apple TV to attract a wider global audience and showcase the richness of diverse storytelling.
