He joined the Comédie-Française in 1955, first as an associate before becoming a sociétaire in 1959.
In 1964, Sereys left the Comédie-Française to devote himself to boulevard theatre, a period in which he met the likes of Jacques Charon and Robert Hirsch.

The couple divorced on 25 October 1999. Their children became the owners of Château Mouton Rothschild, Château d'Armailhac, and Château Clerc Milon.
Sereys died on 1 January 2023, at the age of 94.]
