The Return of Arsène Lupin (1989) is a French crime television series consisting of 12 episodes, each approximately 55 minutes long, broadcast on FR3 between November 1989 and January 1990. It features the famous gentleman thief created by Maurice Leblanc, played here by François Dunoyer, in a more mischievous and modern interpretation than his predecessors, which retains the hero's refinement and intelligence while immersing him in stories with international overtones, with a more contemporary tone for the late 1980s.

In this version set in the 1930s and 1940s, Arsène Lupin (François Dunoyer) travels across Europe and sometimes beyond, always caught between two worlds: that of hushed salons and that of masterful heists. Each episode is a standalone adventure, but together they paint a portrait of a mature gentleman thief, more strategic than ever, who toys with the powerful, protects the weak, and always stays one step ahead of the police... and his enemies.
