It was theatrically released in France on 30 June 2021.

Production

In August 2020, director Anne Fontaine revealed that she developed the idea for the screenplay during the first COVID-19 lockdown in France:

The lockdown stimulated me into the idea of a different time. It was quite exhilarating to take advantage of a time not planned for writing and to create something unexpected. It's not representative of this period but I wanted something like a comedy, whether it's light, whether it's funny, something whimsical.

The project was described as a comedy about "[the] power and the difficulty of no longer being in charge [...] it is the meeting of two political adversaries who will live an adventure of sorts".

Presidents was produced by Philippe Carcassonne at Ciné@. The film was shot over a seven-week period in Corrèze and Paris, with Yves Angelo as director of photography. Principal photography began on 5 October 2020, and concluded in mid-November 2020.
