The son of actors Michel Côté and Véronique Le Flaguais, he had a number of early acting roles as Maxime Côté before opting in 2010 to use his mother's surname professionally, in a bid to establish his career on his own without the baggage of being judged against his father's status as one of Quebec's most famous actors. His first role credited as Maxime Le Flaguais was in the film Piché: The Landing of a Man (Piché, entre ciel et terre) as the young Robert Piché, with his father playing Piché as an adult. He received a Canadian Screen Award nomination for Best Lead Performance in a Film at the 11th Canadian Screen Awards in 2023, for his performance in Rodeo. He has also been an occasional songwriting collaborator with singer-songwriter Beyries, including on the songs "J'aurai cent ans" and "Nous sommes". They received a SOCAN Songwriting Prize nomination in 2017 for "J'aurai cent ans", and Le Flaguais codirected the music video for "Nous sommes". In 2022 he directed his first narrative short film, Ourobouros.

He is in a relationship with actress Caroline Dhavernas. Their first daughter, Françoise, was born in September 2018.
