In November 2025, French television channel TF1 aired the single-episode television film Un meurtre (presque) parfait, which featured Claire Keim and Clémence Lassalas in leading roles. The film was initially intended to have a follow-up if it performed well during its broadcast. However, TF1 has since confirmed that it will not be producing a sequel to the film.
Clémence Lassalas, who is set to return to the soap opera Demain nous appartient in its 2026 season and will soon appear in Simon Coleman on France 2, mentioned in an interview with Télé-Loisirs that a second part of Un meurtre (presque) parfait will not be made. Despite the film attracting 4 million and then 3.5 million viewers during its broadcast, Lassalas briefly commented on the decision, saying, "It was originally supposed to have a sequel, but finally not. It was too good."
Claire Keim did not comment on the decision to cancel the sequel. She had previously spoken to AlloCiné about the most difficult part of filming, but no details about her thoughts on the lack of a follow-up were shared.
The film Un meurtre (presque) parfait remains available for free on the TF1+ platform. In the film, Claire Keim played Laure Mondo, a famous novelist fascinated by the perfect crime, combining elegance, intelligence, and cynicism. Clémence Lassalas portrayed Pica, the author's assistant, who was clumsy but idealistic and enthusiastic, trying to keep up with the pace of her new boss, whom she deeply admired. Both characters embarked on an investigation surrounding the mysterious death of a powerful businessman found unconscious in the pool of his Corsican villa.
