He is able to win Roxane's heart but finds himself in a difficult situation.A young man, Cyrano de Bergerac's career was interrupted when he was injured in the Siege of Arras in 1640. After the war, he abandoned his military career to study under the philosopher Pierre Gassendi. In this way, he learned the philosophy of libertines and developed a science fiction genre.

He fostered rumors about a hundred-attack victory, and he claimed symbolic kinship with classical heroes. He also styled himself "Hercule" de Bergerac, a character that he was never able to meet in life. However, this doesn't mean that his story is a one-sided affair.Peter Dinklage's diminutive stature lends his character an "outsider" quality, which allows him to confront his own insecurities.
