1651. Louis (not yet XIV) is a young teenager. As the Fronde threatens, his mother Anne of Austria decides to smuggle him to safety and replaces him with a lookalike. Entrusted by D’Artagnan to Cyrano de Bergerac, Louis is hidden within the theater troupe of Madeleine Béjart and Molière.

Molière, Cyrano and the Young King is a French historical comedy-drama releasing June 24, 2026, that reimagines 1651 France with a daring premise: young Louis (not yet XIV) is secretly swapped with a lookalike and hidden in Molière's theater troupe under Cyrano de Bergerac's protection.
