Camille Cottin did not just play an agent in “Dix pour cent” – she detonated Andréa Martel into the sharpest character of French TV. Premiering on France 2 in 2015 and landing worldwide on Netflix as “Call My Agent!”, the series ran four seasons through 2020 with 24 episodes, then clinched Best Comedy at the International Emmy Awards in 2021. That arc alone explains the global wave that lifted both the show and its fearless lead.
Here is the context fans search for : Cottin’s performance anchored a workplace dramedy where real stars guest in every episode, from Juliette Binoche and Isabelle Huppert to Sigourney Weaver in 2020. The result spread fast on streaming, brought new viewers to French series, and sparked remakes abroad. Producers said in 2021 that a feature-length follow‑up and a fifth season were in the works, keeping curiosity high.
Camille Cottin and Dix pour cent : why Andréa changed everything
At ASK agency, Andréa Martel negotiates, protects, seduces, and sometimes bulldozes. Cottin plays her with a mix of speed and vulnerability that feels live-wire. The series balances industry satire and human stakes : last‑minute shoot cancellations, egos the size of a soundstage, and private lives that refuse to wait for wrap.
The format stays tight : six episodes per season, around 50 minutes each, with a self‑contained star storyline and ongoing office drama. Jean Dujardin goes too deep into method acting, Isabelle Huppert juggles overlapping shoots, Monica Bellucci flips the script on red‑carpet clichés. Cottin threads through it all, steering the agency while Andréa’s own life shifts from late‑night deals to unexpected parenthood.
The acclaim did not arrive by chance. The France 2 launch in 2015 gave the show pedigree at home, Netflix opened doors abroad, and that 2021 International Emmy sealed its place in TV history. Momentum like that turns a character into shorthand : say Andréa, viewers know the stride, the voice, the stare.
Where to watch Call My Agent! : platforms, episodes, remakes
In France, “Dix pour cent” aired on France 2. Internationally, all four seasons stream on Netflix under “Call My Agent!”. That is where most viewers discover Cottin, then loop back to the original broadcast origin. Simple path, broad reach.
Success also multiplied versions of the show. The British remake “Ten Percent” launched in 2022 on Prime Video. Turkey adapted it as “Menajerimi Ara” in 2020, India rolled out “Call My Agent : Bollywood” on Netflix in 2021, and South Korea followed with “Behind Every Star” in 2022 on tvN. Same backstage chaos, different star systems, proof the concept travels.
Quick essentials for a fast start :
- Original channel : France 2 (first broadcast in 2015).
- Global streaming : Netflix under “Call My Agent!”.
- Total run : 4 seasons, 24 episodes, 2015 to 2020.
- Award : International Emmy for Best Comedy, 2021.
- Notable guests : Juliette Binoche, Jean Dujardin, Isabelle Huppert, Sigourney Weaver.
For new viewers, episode one does the job right away : a crisis, a famous guest, and Andréa in fight mode. The tone is bright, the pace elastic, and the humor lands even if agency jargon is new.
What comes next for Camille Cottin : films, awards, and the future of Dix pour cent
The series unlocked a bigger screen for Cottin. She appeared in “Killing Eve” in 2020 and 2022, moved into American features with “Stillwater” in 2021, then joined “House of Gucci” the same year. French audiences saw her again in “Astérix et Obélix : The Middle Kingdom” in 2023 and “Golda” in 2023, a steady run proving range and reach.
Regarding the franchise’s future, producer Dominique Besnehard said in 2021 that a feature film and Season 5 were planned, following the 2020 season finale. French trade press echoed development chatter after that announcement. Until official dates land, the complete quartet on Netflix remains the entry point that keeps drawing new fans.
The why behind this loyalty is simple. The show nails the blend of insider detail and emotional clarity, while Cottin’s Andréa carries momentum from one set piece to the next. Start with season one now, then watch how the character evolves when personal life and agency stakes collide. It feels unnecesary to say more : the first scene will do the convincing.
