Historical Background / Origins

• Joséphine Jobert first became widely known for her role as DS Florence Cassell in the long-running BBC series Death in Paradise. (HELLO!)

• Over time, she stepped away from Death in Paradise for personal and professional reasons. (HELLO!)

• She later returned for special episodes when the show marked anniversaries — showing both her commitment and the show’s willingness to welcome her back. (HELLO!)

• Still, by 2022, Jobert decided to move on from Florence Cassell for good. (HELLO!)

This background makes her latest announcement more meaningful. It isn’t just “another role.” It’s a clear career move: transitioning from a familiar identity to something new.

Turning point: June 6, 2025 — the public reveal that Season 2 is in production. This shifts Saint-Pierre from a one-off crime drama into an ongoing series.

What is Saint-Pierre & Why the Renewal Matters

Saint-Pierre is a police procedural set on the small French-controlled island of Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon, off the coast of Newfoundland. (HELLO!) The story centers on two detectives:

• Geneviève “Arch” Archambault (Jobert), a Parisian transplant with her own complicated past. (HELLO!)

• Donny “Fitz” Fitzpatrick (played by Allan Hawco), an inspector exiled to the island after his discovery of corruption. (HELLO!)

Their differences — and their forced partnership — create tension, drama, and compelling storytelling. The island setting adds atmosphere: seemingly peaceful but hiding dark criminal activity. (HELLO!)

By renewing the show, the producers signal trust in the concept and confidence in the cast’s ability to carry further seasons. For Jobert, it’s a chance to take on more serious, complex roles beyond what she did before.

Public Reaction & Social Media Buzz

Fans responded almost immediately when the announcement dropped. In the Instagram comments, many expressed joy and excitement:

• “Yay, awesome news.” (HELLO!)

• “That’s great news. I loved the first season.” (HELLO!)

• “Very exciting news.” (HELLO!)

Critics of fan-led forums also took note. On Reddit, a user wrote about how Saint-Pierre “reminds me of an episode of another Canadian detective series,” expressing delight at a show combining Jobert with a moody island setting and serialized crime drama. (Reddit)

Some longtime fans of Death in Paradise have also commented — cautiously hopeful — that Jobert’s new role could showcase different acting talents and storylines.

What This Means for Joséphine Jobert — 2025 Update

• The renewal confirms Jobert’s decision to pivot away from her former character Florence Cassell in Death in Paradise. It suggests she’s committed to a new phase of her career.

• Working on Saint-Pierre gives her a leading role — as a detective with depth, emotional baggage, and growth potential.

• With Season 2 in production and slated for release winter 2026, Jobert has secured legitimate footing in crime drama beyond her previous show.

Long-Term Impact / Why It Matters

For television and crime-drama fans, Saint-Pierre offers something different. The shift to a French-Canadian context, the remote island setting, and the mixing of cultures (Parisian detective meets Canadian inspector) could broaden the appeal.

For Jobert, this may redefine her career in a lasting way. Instead of being remembered solely for a long-running supporting role, she may now become known as a lead actor capable of anchoring a mature, serious crime drama.

For fans of Death in Paradise, it is bittersweet — but hopeful. As one Reddit user put it:

“This sounds amazing! … Hopefully it will be shown in the UK too.” (Reddit)

It carries a promise: new stories, new mysteries, new sides to Jobert.
