Lily Collins dazzled at the Paris premiere of Emily in Paris Season 5, making a grand entrance aboard the iconic Venice Simplon-Orient-Express. The series isn’t stopping there—Netflix has greenlit a sixth season, keeping Emily Cooper in her Parisian playground. Collins returns as the Chicago-born marketing whiz, juggling life between Agence Grateau and her adventures in Europe.
Series creator Darren Star spilled the beans on Season 6, revealing development is underway. While Paris continues to serve as the show’s heart, Star enjoys transporting audiences to new locales when the narrative allows. Despite this, the series remains firmly anchored in Paris.
Season 5 packed a punch with 10 episodes, following Emily’s work stint in Rome. There, she helped launch a new Agence Grateau office while navigating a budding romance with Italian fashion heir Marcello Muratori. The storyline saw Emily caught between her rising Italian connections and her established career in France.
The audience embraced the drama, catapulting Season 5 to 26.8 million views across 11 days. It topped charts in 24 countries, including France, Italy, and Brazil, and reached the Top 10 in 91 nations. The show’s popularity even garnered Darren Star France’s chevalier de la Légion d’honneur.
Season 5 wrapped up in Venice with Marcello’s fashion debut. His triumph secured his mother’s approval and an offer to helm the family’s cashmere business. However, Emily turned down his invitation to remain in Paris, ending their relationship anew.
Meanwhile, Mindy Chen accepted a marriage proposal from Nicolas de Léon, despite Alfie’s warnings. Additionally, Gabriel reentered the picture, inviting Emily on a Greek yacht adventure.
Season 6 is slated for a 2026 release, promising to explore these unresolved dynamics, with Paris continuing to be the backdrop of Emily’s evolving journey. For the latest updates, stay tuned to VZN.
