Stephane entered the world of show business early, performing stand-up comedy in clubs in Paris shortly after he was 14.
The French-Congolese star was expelled from high school in 2011 and later received permission from the French Ministry of Social Affairs to start working at the age of 14, which led to his comedy career.
He performed at the Montreal Comedy Festival in 2011 and the following year at the televised Grand Rex concert venue.
He got his big break in 2013 when he appeared as a dealer in the French comedy Les gamins.
Stephane appeared in other French films and music videos in the following years before landing a small role in Paul Verhoeven’s thriller film Elle in 2016.
Three years later he had a leading role in the drama Roads opposite Dunkirk actor Fionn Whitehead.
The comic followed this up with a small role in the star-studded Wes Anderson film The French Dispatch.
His most notable role was in Wes’ 2023 film Asteroid City as a college student alongside A-listers Scarlett Johansson and Tom Hanks.

In addition to his acting career, Stephane has also modeled for Spanish fashion brand Loewe alongside The Crown star Josh O’Connor.
Stephane has kept his personal life out of the spotlight and has not had any publicly known relationships.
Before her affair with Stephane, Emily shocked fans when she kissed Harry Styles, 29, on the streets of Tokyo in March.
But that romance faded when Harry dated actress Taylor Russell.
Emily was previously married to Sebastian Bear-McClard, who shares son Sylvester Apollo Bear, two.
