He then played the role of Max in Arthur Schnitzler’s play Anatole, directed by Fabrice Adrien.

After these experiences, for more than two years, he joined the TV series School of life (La Vie Devant Nous) in which he played the role of Mathias Granier. In 2002, he wrote a personal project called Sumoto life, a short movie in which he played with Jean-Claude Dreyfus, Claire Nebout and Gilles Detroit.
