Directed by Oscar winner Damien Chazelle (Whiplash, La La Land), Emmy Award winner Alan Poul (Tales of the City), Cannes Camera d’Or winner Houda Benyamina (Divines) and Laïla Marrakchi (Le Bureau des Légendes), the Netflix limited series The Eddy is an eight-episode drama that takes place in the vibrant multicultural neighborhoods of modern-day Paris.
The Eddy was brought to the screen through a collaboration between Alan Poul, Damien Chazelle, BAFTA Award winner Jack Thorne (National Treasure) and six-time Grammy Award winner Glen Ballard, who wrote the songs and established The Eddy’s band which is composed of real-life musicians Randy Kerber, Ludovic Louis, Lada Obradovic, Jowee Omicil and Damian Nueva Cortes.
Netflix has released the behind-the-scenes featurette for Damien Chazelle’s upcoming French musical drama series The Eddy, featuring interviews by Chazelle along with executive producers Glen Ballard and Alan Poul as they talked about the importance of jazz to the series’ story.
Interspersed with dynamic and uplifting performances, The Eddy conveys the power of music to heal, unite and turn chaos into beauty.
