Biography

Labèque studied at the French drama school Cours Florent for three years.[7] One day some agents appeared at the school and one of them gave her a card to go through a casting.[7] In 2018, she made her film debut in The Trouble-Shooter (Roulez jeunesse), the first feature film by director Julien Guetta.[8] That same year, she played the role of Marion Malinski in the comedy-drama film In Your Hands (Au bout des doigts) directed by Ludovic Bernard.[9][10]

In 2019, she played Fanny, one of the protagonists in the fantasy film Zombi Child directed by Bertrand Bonello.[11][12][13] For her performance in the film, Labèque was included in the shortlist to compete for the César Award for Most Promising Actress, but did not get the nomination.[14]

In 2021 and 2022, she played the role of Lisa Dayan in the TV series En thérapie, created by Olivier Nakache & Éric Toledano.[15]

In 2022, Labèque played the lead role in the film Coma directed by Bertrand Bonello, their second collaboration after Zombi Child.[16]

Her next films are Annie Colère directed by Blandine Lenoir,[17] and Toni, en famille by director Nathan Ambrosioni.[18]
