Audrey Fleurot: “What I like about this season 4 of HPI…”

As the flagship TF1 series returns on Thursday, we will discover a Morgane Alvaro who is pregnant up to her eyes. A twist that delighted the star actress. Presentation of what awaits you this year in HPI.

“This season 4 is the return of karma for Morgane!” that is how Alice Chegaray-Breugnotcreator and screenwriter of HPI, thought of the continuation of the TF1 series, which will return from Thursday May 16 on the channel, with 8 new episodes… rounded up! Because Morgane Alvaro will return to service with a baby in her stomach, as was suggested at the end of season 3. Obviously, this will turn the life of the brilliant investigator upside down and outline the contours of this season 4, which tease Audrey Fleurot :

“She is forced to re-consider her relationship with others and with the world, because she will be in a very complicated situation at the start of the season. She is trying to become a better person. But do we want Morgane to become a better person?” laughs the star that Première met during the Séries Mania festival last March. “Morgane is also amusing because she is selfish, without embarrassment, exuberant. But sometimes this behavior causes her harm and she has to find out how far she can go, with her police work or with Karadec…“

Be careful of the backlash! Because Alice Chegaray-Breugnot wanted his heroine “pays the bill for everything she did in previous seasons“. And in this season 4, Morgane risks having some serious conscience issues, even talking to a pigeon (!) to get her head straight: “Yes, we brought a real pigeon on set with a pigeon trainer“, laughs the designer, who takes on this astonishing twist.

Obviously, season 4 of HPI who arrives will not be quite like the others. And this pregnancy will take up all the space. “What I really like about this season is that Morgane's children are more mature than her when it comes to the announcement of her pregnancy.“, resumes Audrey Fleurot. “While she struggles to come to terms with the news, her children – Thea in particular – will take matters into their own hands..” They will thus embark on the quest for the unknown father. Who is the progenitor of this new baby? “Morgane will find herself coached by her children, who will make her understand that beyond the father, she must find the one who will pay child support! They are the ones who will push Morgane to tell the truth to the three potential parents..”

There will be a lot of talk about responsibility, feelings and the future in this season 4. But for all that, don't worry: HPI will always be a detective series.

Expecting a baby won't entirely hinder Morgane's mission. Because “This is her fourth pregnancy. Morgane is on the prowl“, smiles Audrey Fleurot. “She's not the type to look at her stomach. She's too hyperactive for that. She gets caught up in her investigations and will take a while before finally realizing… We can say that she will be in a bit of denial of pregnancy at the start of the season! But hey, Morgane is also a kind of superhero. She won't feel nauseous. She doesn't have time for that.“

HPI, season 4 in 8 episodes, to watch on TF1 from Thursday May 16, 2024.
