French comedian Dany Boon has performed on stage and in movies. His stage name is derived from the TV series Daniel Boon.

The 2016 comedy Raid Dingue was a huge hit with audiences but fell flat with reviewers. He co-wrote the screenplay, directed the film, and acted in it.

Boon won the first César du public prize in French film history for this movie, which presented the French movie with the largest box office of the year.
