- In 1995, he starred in the leading role of an Italian nobleman named Angelo Pardi in the period film The Horseman on the Roof (Le Hussard sur le Toit) opposite Juliette Binoche. At that time, the film made headlines as the most expensive French film ever made, but it failed to recover its cost in spite of receiving numerous awards and critical acclaim.
- Olivier can fluently speak in English, French, and Spanish languages.
- In 1995, he posed on the cover of the French magazine called Studio along with the legendary French star, Alain Delon. Moreover, Olivier has been compared to Delon, who was a prominent s*x symbol during the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s.
- While promoting The Horseman on the Roof (1995) in the United States, Olivier’s smoldering good looks earned him the title of ‘The French Brad Pitt‘.
- In 2003, he was included in VH1‘s list of ‘100 Hottest Hotties’ at #94.
- In March 2023, Olivier was involved in a motorcycle accident on Fairfax Avenue near 5th Street in Los Angeles, California.

In December 2023, he filed a $2 million lawsuit against the City of Los Angeles, claiming that the city was at fault for his motorcycle crash. According to the lawsuit, Olivier was injured due to a dangerous condition of public property after the front tire of his motorcycle hit a large crack in the middle of the road, which eventually caused the accident.
