Netflix’s ‘Lupin’ Part 4 Pushes the Action and Thrills to New Heights | Review
Netflix’s French thriller *Lupin* returns with Part 4, which the review says raises the action and suspense as Assane Diop faces a new, capable enemy. Framed for two seemingly impossible heists just days before his release from prison, he must confront a threat that could derail his plans to reunite with his son and begin a new life.
The story picks up four years after Part 3, with Assane serving his sentence at a maximum-security prison. The review describes the new season as unpredictable: the Pellegrinis are ruled out as suspects, and the identity of the copycat remains unclear. Omar Sy returns as Assane in a series inspired by Maurice Leblanc’s Arsène Lupin stories, which has been one of Netflix’s most successful non-English-language shows.
In short
- Assane is framed for two impossible heists before his release.
- A new, skilled enemy makes the story unpredictable.
- Part 4 resumes four years after the previous finale.
Explained simply
Lupin is a French crime thriller inspired by Maurice Leblanc’s stories about Arsène Lupin, a fictional gentleman thief known for disguise and clever schemes. The series follows Assane Diop, played by Omar Sy, who draws on Lupin’s methods while dealing with his own family history and troubles.
Earlier parts established Assane’s conflicts with the wealthy Pellegrini family and his efforts to protect those close to him. The story also centres on his relationship with his son and his hope of building a safer life.
