Public records list Jérôme Salle as a screenwriter, film director and film producer. Born on May 11, 1971, Jérôme Salle is from Paris, France. That works out to 55 years old in 2026.
My Take
Jérôme Salle strikes me as an unusually versatile French filmmaker, equally at home in crowd-pleasing and serious cinema. He can drive a slick thriller like Anthony Zimmer or the Largo Winch adaptations, then turn around and bring Zulu to the closing slot at Cannes. That range is what I respect most; he refuses to choose between entertainment and artistic ambition, reaching for both with a distinctly French sense of pride. He is not a director surrounded by loud hype, but his work tends to satisfy, building steadily film by film. I trust craftsmen like that, the ones who reliably deliver without overselling themselves.
