The destroyers instead took battle stations close to the shore as a deterrent.In 1988 she was decommissioned and became a museum ship in Nantes. She has been listed as a monument historique by the French Ministry of Culture since October 1991.On 21 February 2016, director Christopher Nolan announced plans to feature the ship in his upcoming World War II film Dunkirk. In the film, she portrayed British destroyers HMS Vivacious and HMS Vanquisher simultaneously, carrying the 'D36' pennant number of Vivacious on her port side and Vanquisher's 'D54' on her starboard side.
