The Surferthis is the story of a man joining his hometown in Australia, determined to win back the esteem of his son and his right to surf on the beach of his childhood, now controlled by a band of local surfers. Humiliated publicly and harassed, the protagonist will have to regain his honor. And as often in films of the genre, this honor will go through the ruthless law of the wave.
After shaking festivals, The Surfer will be available exclusively on Paramount+ from September 1ᵉʳ 2025 for French subscribers. The film, scripted by Thomas Martin and staged by Lorcan Finnegan has already released in the United States. It is a safe bet that he will have a great success with French spectators and spectators.
The latest dubbing of Dominique Collignon-Maurin
Standing detail for the French -speaking public: The Surfer is the latest film in which Nicolas Cage is doubled by Dominique Collignon-Maurin, a major figure in French dubbing who died in 2025. His familiar voice accompanies Cage in this twilight role, enough to tint the footage among French-speaking fans.
Produced by several Australian and Irish companies (Tea Shop Productions, Arenamedia, Gramercy Park Media), The Surfer Signs the fourth of Lorcan Finnegan’s international scope and already illustrated by the radicality of his formal proposal. The first feedback from the specialized press already evoke a hallucinated film, served by a solid cast (Julian McMahon, Nicholas Cassim, Miranda Tapsell), and greeted in Cannes for his ability to stretch the dramaturgy towards social and existential fable.
