Production

Development

In 2010, France 2 called for proposals for a new television series. Lionel Olenga, co-producer along with Laurent Scalese and Stephane Drouet, aimed to create a cop show that was more entertaining. [further translation needed]:

Ayant travaillé à la douane pendant treize ans, il avait pris pour habitude de mettre des génériques de séries télé pendant les planques. C'est ce côté « surréaliste » et « décalé » qu'il mettra dans Cherif.

In early 2015, the channel renewed the series for a third season due to positive feedback from the second season.^[1] Adbdelhafid Metalsi (Kader Cherif) confirmed that on January 30, 2015 that the third season was in the process of being written.^[2]

Shooting

Contrary to the series' usual production methods, it was shot twice, once from October 15 to December 7, 2012 (episodes 1 to 4) and then from February 11 to April 5, 2013 (episodes 5 to 8).
