Jean Dujardin Funny Or Die Video: 'Artist' Star Cast As Every Villain (VIDEO)

First Posted: 02/ 9/2012 1:15 pm Updated: 02/ 9/2012 1:16 pm

While Hollywood waits to see if Jean Dujardin has what it takes to become a star here in America, the Best Actor frontrunner has apparently taken fate into his own hands. The "Artist" star teamed with Funny or Die for a new video that pokes fun at what roles wait for him in the future -- at least if the careers of other imports like Michael Nyqvist and Mathieu Amalric are any indication.

In the clip, Dujardin -- a star on par with George Clooney in his native France and a gifted comic performer -- auditions to play the villain in many, many, many Hollywood productions, from "Sherlock Holmes 3" to "Bridesmaids 2."

"None of you gets a bouquet," he sneers in his adorable French accent. Forget Kristen Wiig; let's cast Dujardin in the "Bridesmaids" sequel and get on with it already. Watch above.

Could this man be any more adorable? Nope, I don't think he can. And he has learned more English since October than I did after 2 years in Paris!

Yeah, learning English in Paris is pretty hard when almost everybody speaks French all the time. It might be easier in Toronto or New York or London or Dublin or Glasgow or Sydney or Wellington or Nassau or Bridgetown or Belmopan or Chaguanas or Johannesburg or Samoa or Guam or The Isle of Man or Turks and Caicos or Norfolk Island or Falkland Islands or Cayman Islands or Bermuda or The Virgin Islands or even Montréal.

I meant he learned more English in a few months vs. how much FRENCH I learned in two years. I should have been clearer.
