Éric Judor (French pronunciation: [eʁik ʒydɔʁ]; born 25 July 1968), sometimes simply called Éric, is a French actor, director, screenwriter and comedian.[1] He gained notoriety by forming, together with Ramzy Bedia, the comedy duo Éric et Ramzy.

After several feature films with his friend Ramzy, he began a career as a solo comic actor. He created, wrote and produced the series Platane (2011-2019) for Canal+, but he is also the headliner of the comedies Mohamed Dubois (2013), Problemos (2017) and Roulez jeunesse (2018). He plays in particular in the series H (1998-2002) which made him particularly known with his friends Ramzy Beria, Pierre Chabrier and Jamel Debbouze.

Life and career

[edit]

Judor's father was French from the Guadeloupe Region and his mother from Austria. After being a tour guide in the United States for two years and then in Canada, he worked as a logistics coordinator at Bouygues. There he organized the schedules of the engineers who worked on the company's oil platforms. He now lives in Dampierre-en-Yvelines with his wife and two daughters, Jana and Luna.

Youth and training

[edit]

At the age of 18, he attempted a career as a professional tennis player in the United States. His career proved unsuccessful, though he did manage to defeat Hicham Arazi, twice quarter-finalist at Roland Garros, while he was ranked 300th in the world. He distinguished himself in particular during this match by an exceptional Tweener passing shot.
