Priceless jewels vanished from the Louvre in one of the most daring heists of the century \u2014 but don’t look at Matt Bomer<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Fellow Travelers star, who played con artist and thief Neal Caffrey on all six seasons of USA’s White Collar<\/a>, distanced himself from the scene of the crime in a cheeky social media post on Thursday.<\/p>\n

“I would like to state for the record that I had nothing to do with the Louvre,” Bomer wrote<\/a> on Threads alongside a winking emoji and a photo of himself in Paris.<\/p>\n

Bomer also shared<\/a> the post on Instagram, where several of his White Collar castmates questioned his alibi.<\/p>\n

Tim DeKay, who portrayed FBI Special Agent Peter Burke on the show, commented, “Yeah, we\u2019ll see about that, Caffrey\u2026”<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Tiffani Thiessen, who played Burke’s wife Elizabeth on the series, wrote, “But are we to really believe that friend?”<\/p>\n

And Ross McCall, who played rival thief Matthew Keller, suggested that he was involved in the heist, not Bomer. “But I might\u2026” he wrote on Instagram. He also shared a similar message in response to Bomer’s original Threads post: “Maybe I did\u2026”<\/p>\n

McCall actually was in Paris around the time of the incident, as he shared<\/a> an Instagram post last week with numerous photos of the city. “She never disappoints,” the actor said of France’s capital in his caption.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, burglars allegedly broke into the Louvre Museum, smashing windows and display cases to snag eight bejeweled objects including a diadem worn by Empress Eug\u00e9nie (the wife of Napoleon III) as well as necklaces made with royal emeralds and royal sapphires. The entire operation, which involved an electric ladder and a scooter getaway, took no more than seven minutes.<\/p>\n

In June 2024, White Collar creator Jeff Eastin confirmed that a revival of the series was in the works with Bomer, DeKay, and Thiessen all reprising their original roles. Eastin revealed<\/a> that the show will be titled White Collar Renaissance in September 2024. The creator’s most recent update came in February, when he announced<\/a> that Netflix, Peacock, and Prime Video are all in the running to acquire the revival.<\/p>\n

The original White Collar saw Caffrey collaborate with Burke and the FBI in exchange for his freedom \u2014 often while working an angle of his own. The show ran for 81 episodes across six seasons from 2009 to 2014.<\/p>\n
