Since then, Raphaël Personnaz has regularly starred in such notable films as "Trois mondes" (Catherine Corsini, 2012); "La Stratégie de la poussette" (Clément Michel, 2012), "Marius" (Daniel Auteuil, 2013), "L'Affaire SK1" (Frédéric Tellier, 2014) and Safy Nebbou's adaptation of Sylvain Tesson's famous adventure book, in which the French actor pushes his limits as a lone walker in "Dans les forêts de Sibérie" (2016).
