What role does Claudette play in Murder Mystery 2: Who is she?

‘It must be awesome but very enjoyable’
Mélanie was previously interviewed by the official Cannes Film Festival when she was a jury member and was Frequently Asked Questions What directors does she want to be able to work with?
“Women. I haven’t done many films with women. I have never worked with Céline Sciamma, Rebecca Zlotowski, Justine Triet, Emmanuelle Bercot… I think there is a very strong women’s cinema in France, a cinema that moves me and that has existed for a long time, not a cinema that has just arrived because it’s a hot topic right now.”
She added: “It was already there, with a high level of demand. These are women who write beautiful stories and who film people well, and not only women.”
Additionally, she said that she’s “never played a politician, a woman who has fought to change things. Those big speech scenes: it must be awesome but very enjoyable to play.”
