"Emily in Paris" Star Thalia Besson Returns for Season 5
Yara Sameh
Thalia Besson, who played deceitful antagonist Geneviève in Season 4 of Netflix's hit romantic comedy series 'Emily in Paris,' is back for Season 5, which is currently filming in Paris.
Besson, the daughter of French director Luc Besson, is joining the key recurring cast, notably Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu, who plays Emily's nonchalant boss Sylvie, Samuel Arnold (Julien), Bruno Gouery (Luc), William Abadie (Antoine Lambert), and Ashley Park, who stars as Emily's best friend, Mindy Chen.
Season 5 also features the return of Emily Cooper's new Italian love interest, Marcello (Eugenio Franceschini), and her one-and-off partners, the sexy French chef Gabriel (Lucas Bravo) and dashing Brit Alfie (Lucien Laviscount).
A source says another male character will join the show this season.
Geneviève is the second 'villain' from 'Emily in Paris,' following Camille, Gabriel's French partner who was played by Camille Razat in the first four seasons of the show.
The American-French stepdaughter of Sylvie, Geneviève, is born out of wedlock. Geneviève is an NYU grad who moved to Paris in Season 4 and got hired at Agence Grateau, where Emily gracefully took her under her wing. However, Geneviève isn't as innocent as she appears to be, and she soon starts to attempt to steal her clients and seduce Emily's boyfriend, Gabriel. The latter ultimately turns down Geneviève and tries to win Emily back after learning that she's moved to Italy.
Season 4 wraps with a cliffhanger as Gabriel surprises Emily by showing up on the doorsteps of her new flat in Rome.
Season 5 launched filming last month in Rome and returned to the French capital several weeks ago.
The story picks up days after Season 4 ends, as Emily settles into her apartment in Rome to run Agence Grateau's Italian office and spend time with Marcello, the charming and confident heir of a family-owned cashmere company.

"The Social Network 2" in Works
Yara Sameh After teasing a potential sequel to his Oscar-winning drama "The Social Network" for years, Aaron Sorkin seems to have found an angle to tackle for his follow-up film. Sources tell Deadline that Sorkin has been tapped to direct "The Social Network Part II" for Sony Pictures. Insiders say that while it's being called part two, it's not a straight sequel but rather a follow-up to the original movie that explored the origins of what would become the world's biggest social media platform. Jesse Eisenberg starred as Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg in 'The Social Network,' but casting has yet to be announced for the sequel. Part 2 is in development with Todd Black, Peter Rice, Sorkin, and Stuart Besser producing. Sorkin's original screenplay for the new movie explores the story behind the Wall Street Journal's "The Facebook Files" by Jeff Horowitz, an explosive series of articles published in October 2021 that exposed the inner workings of — and multiple harms caused by — the world's largest social network. Released in 2010 by Sony Pictures and based on Ben Mezrich's "The Accidental Millionaires", "The Social Network" was a huge hit with audiences and critics and earned $226 million at the global box office. The pic had also been nominated for eight Oscars including Best Picture, the film won three, including Sorkin for Best Adapted Screenplay. Since its release, Sorkin has noted on several occasions his interest in doing a follow-up, but he couldn't find the right angle. Following the events of January 6, 2021, when the U.S. Capitol was attacked, Sorkin found his new inspiration. The filmmaker in an interview last year said that he believed Facebook played a part. Sources stress that the new film isn't a 'January 6' movie" and will focus on "not just on the 2020 election but also Facebook's effect on teens, preteens, violence, and countries outside the U.S." Although the original was directed by David Fincher, Sorkin will take on directing duties for this pic having sharpened his skills since the original Social Network came out. His recent directing credits include "Molly's Game", "The Trial of the Chicago 7", and "Being the Ricardos." read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean
