Timeline
Among the 17 tracks on the album there is Mais qu’est-ce que j’ai ? which was composed by Henri Betti with the lyrics by Édith Piaf in 1947.
Lambert Nicolas Wilson (born Willson, 3 August 1958) is a French actor.
He is best known internationally for his portrayal of The Merovingian in The Matrix film series, beginning with The Matrix Reloaded.
Wilson is the son of Georges Wilson, who was an actor, theatrical manager and director of the Théâtre National Populaire.
As a teenager, he had little interest in the French theatre and aimed to become an "American actor" and appear in Hollywood pictures.
He studied acting at the Drama Centre London to learn English.
He played his first movie role in the 1977 American film Julia, directed by Fred Zinnemann.
Five years later, he played his first starring role in another film by Zinneman, Five Days One Summer, opposite Sean Connery.
But the film was not a commercial success, and neither was Sahara in which Wilson co-starred with Brooke Shields.
Wilson ultimately found success in his home country: during the 1980s, he became popular with French audiences by appearing in successful films such as La Boum 2, The Public Woman and Rendez-vous.
At the time, he was often cast either as tormented characters or in romantic parts, although he found himself more convincing in the former kind of roles.
In the late 1980s and early 1990s, however, his screen career suffered from a series of box office failures, such as The Possessed and El Dorado.
He later said that the French producers had come, at the time, to regard him as "box office poison".
Wilson screen tested for The Living Daylights (1987) for the role of James Bond, appearing in test footage opposite Maryam d'Abo (the Bond girl in The Living Daylights) as Tatiana Romanova, re-enacting scenes from From Russia with Love (1963).
Wilson released Musicals on the EMI label in 1989 (re-issued in 2004), with John McGlinn conducting Orchestre Philharmonique de Monte-Carlo.
It features him singing songs of the American Musical Theatre catalogue, those well-known ("Maria" from West Side Story, "There But For You Go I" from Lerner & Loewe's Brigadoon, "The Cafe Song" from Les Misérables, "Johanna" from Stephen Sondheim's Sweeney Todd), rare ("Love Song" from Kurt Weill and Alan Jay Lerner's Love Life, "It Must Be So" from Leonard Bernstein's Candide, and "Silly People", which was cut from Sondheim's A Little Night Music), and those in-between ("Finishing the Hat" from Sunday in the Park with George, "You Do Something to Me" from Cole Porter's Fifty Million Frenchmen, "Never Will I Marry" from Frank Loesser's Greenwillow).
In 1989, his performance as Abbé Pierre in the film Hiver 54, l'abbé Pierre, for which he received the Jean Gabin prize, won him critical accolades.
In 1991, Wilson was featured in a series of Calvin Klein ads for its Eternity perfume brand, featuring Christy Turlington, reuniting for a poster ad in 1998.
In musical theatre Wilson has appeared as Count Carl-Magnus Malcolm in the 1995 National Theatre London production of A Little Night Music, where "every word and note was fiercely projected", and of which a recording was later issued.
He eventually won back the favour of French audiences by appearing in the successful comedies Same Old Song (1997) and Jet Set (2000).
Wilson was cast in the role of The Merovingian in The Matrix Reloaded (2002) and The Matrix Revolutions (2003), perhaps his best-known role in the American cinema.
Being completely fluent in English, his strong French accent in the film is fabricated for the role.
The role also popularised the Ediety tie knot, now commonly referred to as "The Merovingian".
He appeared as Eric Thomson in Resnais's 2003 film version of the 1925 comédie musicale Pas sur la bouche by Yvain.
In 2007 he was Voltaire/Pangloss (bilingually) in Robert Carsen's production of Candide at the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris.
In November 2012, he was selected as a member of the main competition jury at the 2012 International Film Festival of Marrakech.
In April 2013, Wilson was invited by MINUSTAH (United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti) to visit Haiti in the capacity of helping with various UN-backed environment and cultural programmes.
He was the master of ceremonies for the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2014 and 2015 Cannes Film Festival.
In February 2016, he released a tribute album called Wilson chante Montand to the singer Yves Montand to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the death of the artist.
Wilson's commitment to safeguarding the environment is manifest in his support of Greenpeace and Agir pour l'Environnement amongst others.
He works on behalf of the Fondation Abbé-Pierre and the Mouvement Emmaüs in France to eradicate hunger and poverty.
Wilson is an ambassador for Les Toiles Enchantées (an association that brings contemporary cinema to hospitals and hospices for children), and parrain (patron) for a proposed new cinema at the Institut Français in London.
Wilson is Chevalier and Officier des Arts et des Lettres and Chevalier and Officier de l'Ordre National du Mérite.
He was raised to Commandeur de l’Ordre du Mérite by President Emmanuel Macron in 2017.
In January 2018 he engaged to assist the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO) in communications regarding work to eradicate world hunger and poverty ("Working for Zero Hunger").
The same year he starred in Volontaire by Hélène Fillières.
In 2021, Wilson reprised his role of The Merovingian from The Matrix franchise in The Matrix Resurrections.
