Eight months after the death of actor Bruno Salomone, who died following a long illness, his widow Audrey Salomone joined his former comedic troupe, Les Nous Ç Nous, in a tribute to their former collaborator Jean Dujardin. The group reunited during the opening evening of the 11th International Comedy Film Festival of Liège (FIFCL) on November 10, 2026, an event where Jean Dujardin was the guest of honor. Audrey stepped in to ensure the troupe appeared as whole as possible, joining her former partners Éric Massot, Emmanuel 'Manu' Joucla, and Éric Collado on stage alongside Jean Dujardin. [1]

The event highlighted the enduring bond between the comedians. Following a group hug, the four men stood closely together, appearing as united as ever. This gathering served as a public memorial for Bruno Salomone, whose absence was felt deeply by his colleagues. Jean Dujardin had previously honored his late friend during his funeral on March 23, 2026, at the Sainte-Anne church in Joinville-le-Pont, carrying the coffin alongside director James Huth and actor David Salles. Dujardin delivered a moving speech, stating, 'We were five 'Nous Ç Nous', we will remain five 'Nous Ç Nous', and even six with Audrey, your wife, the incredible Madame Salomone. We love you.' [1]

During the festival opening, Jean Dujardin was recognized for his career achievements, receiving a Honorary Golden Bull award. This accolade came twenty years after the release of his breakthrough role in Michel Hazanavicius's film 'OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies' (2006). Dujardin also received an honorary star on the Liège Walk of Fame, located on Pont d'Avroy street. He joins a selective list of Francophone actors who have been honored with this distinction since the ceremony's inception in 2016. [1]
