Antoine Fouchet, otherwise known as Fouchet, is the main antagonist of the 1995 film Bad Boys, the first installment of the Bad Boys franchise.
In his characterisation, he is a notorious French drug kingpin who runs his drug empire in Miami, Florida. When he kills one of his henchmen for carelessly nearly exposing him by using drugs he had recently stolen, he discovers that a hooker named Julie Mott has witnessed him, leading him to set himself on hunting down Julie and whoever tries to help. He is also the boss of Casper and Ferguson.
He was portrayed by the late Tchéky Karyo, who also played Anton Depeux in Addicted To Love and Jean-Pierre Richard in Kiss of the Dragon.
Biography[]
Fouchet first appeared when he and his gang plotted to steal $100 million worth of heroin from the evidence room in the Miami Police Department Building. First, in order to lure any attention away from the police, has one of his men be a decoy by dressing up as a police officer and then abruptly shoots him to death.
Then they break into the building and, through ingenious methods, use the vents as a passageway for their sliding wagon to store all of the bags of heroin, while also subduing a security guard. Fouchet and his crew manage to escape with the heroin leaving no trace of heroin behind, while Eddie Dominguez, a crooked cop and one of Fouchet's men, secretly takes some for himself.
The next day, Fouchet and some of his men visited the "Al Capone Suite" and spotted an ex-hooker named Max, who was Miami PD Detective Mike Lowrey's informant, with Eddie. Finding out that Eddie used some their score for himself, Fouchet killed Max when he knew she would talk due to being a hooker and then had Eddie killed out of anger. Max's best friend, Julie saw the whole thing and Fouchet's men went after her. When they failed to kill her, he told them to find out where she lives, resulting in a close call where Detective Marcus Burnett, Mike's partner rescued her in the nick of time. He also has one of his men, Noah Trafficante, bludgeon Max's boss, Lois Fields, to death with a hammer.
At a ship near the docks, Fouchet is in a makeshift heroin cooking facility where he scolds his chemist, Elliot to speed up the process so he can sell his drugs on the streets. Fouchet is hiding his drugs of heroin inside barrels of Ether in a delivery van and attends a party at Club Hell where he is almost shot by Julie. Fouchet happened to notice Mike, Marcus and Julie being at the party and sends his men to go after them. He flees the area before he can get caught.
After, Marcus, Mike and Julie find the ship while following Fouchet's chemist, he sees them spying on them and tasks his henchman to find their location. The next day, he goes to Mike's apartment where he and his men ransack the lobby and kidnap Julie in a shootout with Mike and Marcus. After returning to the ship, he calls Mike and reveals that he killed his chemist for luring the police to their hideout and warns them that if they interrupt his drug deal he will kill Julie.
He has an important drug deal with a powerful drug lord and sells his drugs to him. However, just as the deal goes down, Mike, Marcus, and the rest of the police arrive to stop it, prompting Fouchet to kill the drug lord. After shooting Mike in the shoulder and Marcus in the leg, Fouchet makes a run for it in his car and speeds away from the burning airport hangar. However, the cops are not too far behind him, and catch up, with Marcus sidetracking and forcing Fouchet to crash his car near the wall that separates the runway. Having sustained an injury in the crash, he tries to run away, but Mike shoots him in the leg and brings him down. He also wants to kill him for what happened to Max, with Fouchet goading him to, but his partner tells him to "step off".

Fouchet's death.
Although unconscious, Fouchet is not finished yet and pulls out a hidden handgun attempting to shoot Marcus for revenge. However, Mike notices the gun's light reflection on his partner's face and pulls his gun out shooting Fouchet to death, avenging Max's death and putting an end to Fouchet's reign of terror once and for all.
Personality[]
A ruthless French gangster, Fouchet is easily the most evil character throughout the Bad Boys franchise and a dark presence in an overall lighthearted movie. He is very abusive to his henchmen and never shows compassion for them, nor for anyone else. For example, he kills one of his men to distract the police, and later, he kills his chemistry man Elliot for fucking up with his schedule, showing he is very impatient. Being psychotic, he also seems to have a taste for killing people, as he's seen shooting nearly everyone in his way for very petty reasons. He is also shown to be very wrathful, as he rarely smiles, neither is relaxed and every little mistake makes him angry. He chooses murder to solve the problem and he has no redeeming qualities.
Trivia[]
- Fouchet is very notable for usually giving a very serious tone of the overall comedic movie whenever he appears onscreen.
- Unlike his successors Johnny Tapia and Isabel Aretas, who cared for their family members, or James McGrath, whose tragic past at least partially explains his backstory and is decent to his men, Fouchet has no redeeming qualities and only cares about himself.
