Omar Sy's Assane Diop serves as Lupin's main focus. 

When he was a child, Assane's father was framed for the theft of an expensive necklace from Hubert Pellegrini that was originally owned by Marie Antoinette. As a result, Assane's father committed suicide in prison. 

Anchored by his desire to seek revenge against the people involved in the death of his father, Assane became a professional thief to try and expose Hubert's crimes. 

The character used the adventures of master thief Arsène Lupin from Maurice Leblanc's novels as his inspiration to become an expert thief himself.

Throughout Lupin's three seasons, Assane proves that he is a thief who can get away with anything, executing clever plans and anticipating outcomes before a heist in order to pull off a successful mission. 

Perhaps best known for his role as Bishop in X-Men: Days of Future Past, Sy also appeared in other notable movies, such as Jurassic World, Jurassic World: Dominion, Transformers: The Last Knight, and Untouchable.
