Following the outcry caused by his message of September 24, Nicolas Bedos published a new post on Instagram, in an attempt to put down the controversy he himself launched.
As a reminder, the 41-year-old actor and director called on the French to ignore the restrictions linked to the coronavirus.
“Okay, come on, let's be frank: Stop everything.
ALL.
Masks.
Containment.
Except in front of your very fragile parents (when they wish it, which was not the case of my father, bruised dead to be deprived of our love)
, he had written, among other things, causing a slew of indignant reactions.

I remind you that we are still free to think differently, to debate, to be indignant, and even to be wrong,

No, judging Nicolas Bedos, who split a final post on Saturday, putting an end to the controversy.
“
Come on, Stop.
We get back to work and we get off social media a bit.
Do you like to.
Make up your own mind.
Listen to your loved ones.
Listen to yourself, it's not too early.
Good luck in this mess, see you soon,
”he concluded, undoubtedly anxious not to compromise too much, if not taint the release of the next OSS,
