Raphaël Quenard, the French actor whose star is rising fast, was recently named the new brand ambassador for Dior Men.
His standout performance in “Chien de la casse” (Junkyard Dog) earned him a nomination for Best Newcomer at the Césars, a prestigious award often referred to as France’s answer to the Oscars. His international presence has also been bolstered by his role in “Gold Brick,” a Netflix film that showcases his range and depth as an actor.
