This is one of the most iconic action comedies in the history of Polish cinema. “Fuks” directed by Maciej Dutkiewicz premiered on August 20, 1999, attracting huge crowds to cinemas. The audience’s delight was also shared by the reviewers, which was reflected in numerous awards and nominations. The success was influenced not only by the engaging plot, which was both entertaining and suspenseful, but also by the star cast, including: , Maciej Stuhr, or Janusz Gajos.
“Fuks 2”. History tends to come full circle. What is the plot of the spin-off?
Despite the phenomenon that “Fuks” created, we had to wait almost 25 years for the second part. However, the spin-off will not directly refer to the plot of the original, which was also confirmed by Maciej Dutkiewicz, screenwriter and director. – This is a different story that operates separately from the narrative of “Fuks”. Of course, we refer to a certain convention and atmosphere known to viewers from years ago – in one of the interviews. While the events in the first part were caused by hatred between father and son, now the situation changes dramatically.
After numerous life perturbations, Aleks finally settled down. We meet him when he is already an adult man and father. However, he tries to be a real authority for his son, although he does not always succeed. It is true that Maciek is already 20 years old and a bright young man, but his actions prove that the apple does not fall far from the tree. Like his father, he also doesn’t avoid getting into trouble. It all begins when an online dating application connects him with two women who, as it turns out, have connections with a certain gangster who is being hunted by a retired policeman. Like it or not, Maciek gets involved in an intrigue in which big money and love are at stake.
Stuhr and Gajos will return to the screens. Who will we see in the cast of “Fuks 2”?
The second part of the film will feature actors known from the original, including: Maciej Stuhr, Janusz Gajos and Tomasz Dedek, as well as completely new characters played by Sonia Bohosiewicz and Cezary Pazura. Stars of the young generation will appear alongside them: Katarzyna Sawczuk, Paulina Gałązka and , who was cast as the main character, which, as it turns out, was not a random choice. – A certain visual similarity was also important. I believe that Maciej Musiał has a lot of the young Maciej Stuhr in him – explained the director.
Although Musiał plays the role of Maciek, the first violin is played by the female characters and it is they who give the situation dynamics. – I also wanted to highlight female characters in this film. And all this to show how women rule this world and how they sometimes manipulate men. They are the ones who pull the strings, Dutkiewicz said. The premiere of the gangster comedy “Fuks 2” will take place on January 12, 2024.
