The popular Netflix romantic comedy series Emily in Paris has been renewed for a fifth season after making a successful return with season 4 in August 2024.
The announcement was made just after Emily in Paris Season 4’s second part dropped on the streaming service last Thursday. Her spontaneous Roman vacation is unintentionally prolonged when Sylvie (Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu), the lead of the newly established Agence Grateau office in Italy, approaches Lily Collins’s character, who has chosen an Italian adventure.
However, she still has some history in the City of Love, specifically with the recently awarded Michelin-starred chef Gabriel (Lucas Bravo), who never seems to get his timing right, as well as some interesting unresolved issues.
Curious already? We’ve got you covered. Here’s everything to know about Emily in Paris Season 5.
Emily In Paris Season 5 Latest News
According to recent news, Netflix has decided to renew season five of Emily in Paris, even though the popular series’ future was never really in doubt. The decision, made only a few days after the premiere of season 4, part 2, demonstrates the streamer’s unwavering faith in the Lily Allen-led romantic comedy.
In announcing the renewal, Netflix shared a picture of Allen sipping espresso from an Emily in Paris cup on their official X (previously Twitter) account. Five is printed on the bottom of the cup, and the caption for the post says, “There’s no place like Rome.”
Who is in the Emily in Paris Season 5 cast?
The entire plot of Emily in Paris season 5 is unknown, but there are several expected comebacks for the main cast, including Lily Collins’ return as the title character. Without its romantic triangle, the show would be incomplete, and it is anticipated that Lucas Bravo, who plays Gabriel, and Lucien Laviscount, who plays Alfie, will return. Season 5 should include Ashley Park’s Mindy, Emily’s best friend.
There’s no certainty that Camille (played by Camille Razat) will be back for season five, and her somewhat hurried departure from season four lacked a feeling of closure. Also, Emily’s significant move to Rome casts doubt on most cast returns, but the show would lose something if the main cast were replaced entirely. Eugenio Franceschini, who plays Emily’s newest beau, Marcello, is almost a given to return since she is in Rome for season 5.
Emily in Paris season 5’s expected cast consists of:
- Lily Collins as Emily Cooper
- Lucas Bravo as Gabriel
- Ashley Park as Mindy Chen
- Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu as Sylvie Grateau
- Camille Razat as Camille
- Samuel Arnold as Julien
- Bruno Gouery as Luc
- William Abadie as Antoine Lambert
- Lucien Laviscount as Alfie
There’s also Laurent (Arnaud Binard), Sylvie’s husband, and Benoît (Kevin Dias), who might resume his romantic relationship with Mindy. Marcello’s mother, Antonia Muratori (Anna Galiena), Giancarlo (Raoul Bova), Sylvie’s former film professor, and Giorgio Barbieri (Rupert Everett), Sylvie’s friend and CEO of an interior design firm in Rome are among the other Season 4 guest stars who might make an appearance in Season 5.
When does Emily in Paris Season 5 premiere?
There is no official release date available due to the recent announcement of the renewal; however, we will promptly update this post upon its availability. According to the Season 4 premiere schedule, viewers should anticipate another two-part release, in line with Netflix’s new business plan to reduce subscriber attrition and increase viewership.
Nevertheless, aside from a few early-season disruptions due to the pandemic and the Hollywood strikes last year, Emily in Paris has followed its annual release schedule. Season 5 is scheduled to premiere in the early fall of 2025, assuming all goes as planned.
Emily In Paris Season 5 Plot
“We’re thrilled with the incredible response to this season of Emily in Paris and excited to return for a fifth to continue Emily’s adventures in Rome and Paris!” creator and executive producer Darren Star told Tudum without disclosing any plot details.
However, according to the TV legend, Emily won’t be leaving Paris, who declared, “Emily’s going to have a presence in Rome.” It does not imply that she will not be in Paris; rather, it indicates that she will be in Rome. For the show to “have a bigger footprint,” Star continued, the decision to travel to Italy was made to “stay ahead of the audience and take them to unexpected places.”
“Marcello is a whole other adventure that we want for Emily because we ultimately want Emily to be able to have a better work/life balance,” Collins stated in an interview with Good Morning America today, expressing her excitement for the inevitable investigation of her character’s new relationship. We want Emily to be able to smile without any limitations. We hope to see her go beyond her vacation state. And just at the right moment, he arrives.
Additionally, Star stated, “I think there’s a genuine spark, a genuine connection, and a genuine romantic connection between them.” The following season will see a lot of that continue to unfold.
How does Emily in Paris Season 4 end?
Following Emily in Paris Season 4, these are some major plot points.
Emily’s exploration awaits a new adventure and a new city
Emily accepts Sylvie’s offer to take over as head of Agence Grateau’s Rome office, buoyed by her greater spontaneity. Her leasing of a stylish Italian apartment and opening her cottage-style windows to a view of quaint terraces and historic chapels are shown in the last scenes of Season 4.
Gabriel hasn’t moved on, but Emily has
With the same ease as their Vespa ride at the start of Season 4 Part 2, Emily and Marcello glide into a burgeoning romance after a few misunderstandings (this is Emily in Paris, after all). Emily is back juggling work and play, so trouble is probably far from over. But after a suspenseful conclusion, Gabriel realizes that his time with Emily is far from over and asks Mindy to figure out exactly where Emily is in Rome.
Mindy is invited to return as a “Chinese Popstar”
Like nearly every character on the show, Mindy appears out of the blue in Rome after experiencing her breakup. While strolling through the city’s euphoric streets, Mindy feels inspired to accompany a busker on the piano. Little did she know that her song “Beautiful Ruins” would go viral on TikTok and Instagram. Mindy is invited to return as a judge to “Chinese Popstar,” the reality competition series where she previously choked as a performer, demonstrating her ability to dream bigger than Eurovision.
