Producers Liza Chasin, Éléonore Dailly and Édouard de Lachomette spoke to HeyUGuys at the Ladies First UK Premiere at Ham Yard Hotel, London, offering a fascinating behind-the-scenes perspective on how a beloved French satire became one of Netflix's boldest English-language comedies. With Ladies First hitting the platform on 22nd May 2026, the trio spoke candidly about the creative challenge of reimagining the source material, their conviction that Thea Sharrock was the only director for the job, and why the film's themes feel more urgent now than when the original was made eight years ago.
Interviews for Ladies First at the UK Premiere. The film stars Sacha Baron
Cohen, Rosamund Pike, Richard E. Grant, Emily Mortimer, Charles Dance,
Fiona Shaw, Tom Davis, Weruche Opia and Kathryn Hunter; it was written by
Natalie Krinsky, Katie Silberman and Cinco Paul and directed by Thea Sharrock.
Colin Hart and Abigail Shii ask the questions.
Plot: High-powered ad exec Damien Sachs has it all — money, power, and a
never-ending stream of casual flings. But on the eve of his promotion to
CEO, he wakes up in his personal worst nightmare: a parallel world dominated
by women, where the rules are reversed and he must go head-to-head with a
formidable female counterpart who threatens everything he thought he knew.
Ladies First will be available on Netflix from 22nd May 2026.
