Biography

Jean-Pierre Cassel made his cinematic debut in 1956, when Gene Kelly, a renowned actor and dancer, handpicked him for the lead role in the Paris-filmed seriocomedy "The Happy Road", which was later released in 1957. However, it's worth noting that Cassel had already begun his career in the film industry in 1950, albeit on a minor scale.
