About
A bilingual French / English actor (no detectable French accent), Yohan Belmin spent twelve years in New York working as an actor before returning to France. There, he notably performed at the Metropolitan Opera in productions directed by Laurent Pelly. He works in film and on screen, as well as voice-over for many brands (IBM, Adidas, Brawl Stars, Getty Images…).
On screen and on stage alike, he is often cast as figures of power, for good or ill: mentors and saviours as much as manipulators and men of control, in a subtle, understated style.
