The political situation in France is even more complicated than that. Like US presidents, Macron cannot run for a third mandate. And LePen might really well be bared by justice to run, leaving her place to her quite popular but very young lieutenant.

So anyone from Left to Right that come second has a big chance to be elected. They all want to take their chance. 12 or even 10% of the vote at the first round could be enough !

To the point that someone like Villepin, former PM from the Right, is overtly flirting with the Far Left, ready to get their votes if need be....

France Insoumise does not translate to France Unbound. Unbowed might be the better word. Insoumise literally means "not submissive". Defiant would also be better.
