For fans of Luc Besson: what to watch, read & play next

Cross-media picks for Luc Besson fans — films, series, games and books in the same vein.

These picks share a hard, kinetic pulse — operatives moving through cities that want them dead, conspiracies that keep revealing new floors, protagonists who are competent because they're isolated. Noir, Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom, and Terror in Resonance carry it in animation; Transporter 3 and The Orphans carry it in live action. Style here is never decorative — it's pressure. These are stories where survival is an art form, and where atmosphere and momentum are inseparable.

Frequently asked

What should I watch if I like Luc Besson films?

Start with Noir or Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom for assassin-driven animation, or The Team for a grounded European crime procedural — all share that cold, kinetic tension Besson fans gravitate toward.

Are there books for Luc Besson fans?

Yes — Iron Cast delivers outsiders running cons in a corrupt world, while Innan frosten (a Wallander novel) brings the methodical European crime atmosphere; both reward readers drawn to sharp plots and moral pressure.

Are there games for Luc Besson fans?

Absolutely — Beyond: Two Souls is the most cinematic option, and Velvet Assassin puts you inside a WWII spy's real story; both prioritise atmosphere and character over action-game convention.
