Emily in Paris first look as Lily Collins returns to iconic role - but in a new city
Emily in Paris is on the move again and this time she's saying 'ciao' to the city of Venice.
The hit Netflix series, lead starring Lily Collins, will shift its setting to the iconic Italian city for its upcoming fifth season with ten brand-new episodes which will all debut December 18.
According to Netflix, the new season follows Emily as she navigates life in a new city as the head of Agence Grateau's Rome office.
The official synopsis for the brand-new season reads: "Now the head of Agence Grateau Rome, Emily faces professional and romantic challenges as she adapts to life in a new city. But just as everything falls into place, a work idea backfires, and the fallout cascades into heartbreak and career setbacks. It comes after one prominent character of the Netflix show 'made the decision to step away' after five successful years.
The synopsis for the new season continues: "Seeking stability, Emily leans into her French lifestyle, until a big secret threatens one of her closest relationships. Tackling conflict with honesty, Emily emerges with deeper connections, renewed clarity, and a readiness to embrace new possibilities."
Collins, 36, reprises her role alongside returning cast members Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu, Ashley Park, Lucas Bravo, Samuel Arnold, Bruno Gouery, William Abadie, Lucien Laviscount, Eugenio Franceschini, Thalia Besson, Paul Forman, Arnaud Binard, Minnie Driver, Bryan Greenberg, and Michèle Laroque.
Lucas Bravo, whose character Gabriel has been central to the series since season one, had previously expressed doubts about returning.
He told The Hollywood Reporter that Gabriel's decisions had caused him to feel distant from the role, saying: 'He made a few choices that made me kind of grow away from him. We were very much alike in season one, but now, I don't really know. I think I feel like he needs to get his shit together.'
Despite this, Bravo is confirmed to return for season five.
Season four included a storyline set in Rome, which Collins described as a refreshing change. 'It was so great to go from Paris to Rome because you're still in Europe and you're still feeling that romance and passion of Europe, but you're getting to experience a different part of history which was really fun,' she told THR during last year's premiere.
The show's international filming has sparked political reactions in the past.
After the Rome shoot, French President Emmanuel Macron joked he would 'fight hard' to keep the show from relocating permanently.
In response, Rome Mayor Roberto Gualtieri told THR Roma: "Doesn't President Macron have more pressing matters to worry about? I would like to believe, at least I would like to hope, that Macron was joking, because he ought to know that a production company like Netflix does not take orders from heads of state or make decisions based on political pressure.'

Newly engaged Georgina Rodriguez shows off her jaw-dropping curves in tiny white shorts and bra as she flashes dazzling diamond rings in beach snaps
Georgina Rodriguez sent temperatures soaring in a slew of sexy beach snaps as she showed off her dazzling diamonds. The Argentine-Spanish model, 31, posed in a skimpy white Alo set including skimpy shorts and a bra. The fiancé of Cristiano Ronaldo was a vision while striking poses with confidence by the Red Sea shore, capturing a stunning sunset behind her. And the WAG also didn't shy away from displaying her eye-watering jewellery, after the Portoguese football legend, 40, proposed to her last week. She wasn't wearing the jaw-dropping 30 carat ring, said to be worth $3 million, Cristiano proposed with, but instead rocked another huge diamond she has previously been spotted wearing. The couple announced they are set to wed after almost a decade together in an Instagram post on Monday evening. Confirming their engagement the Latina beauty wrote: 'Yes I do. In this and in all my lives.' Up until now, Georgina has worn a different diamond ring, but the couple were understood to have not been engaged during this time. Fans have speculated the pair got engaged last month after the model shared pictures of a bridal-themed dinner, complete with 'C heart G' pillows, a six-piece band and stunning white flower arrangements. She also wore a giant sparkler on her wedding ring finger, hinting at the pair's secret engagement. Georgina and Ronaldo's celebrity pals congratulated the pair on their engagement in the comments. Lauren Sanchez Bezos commented: 'So happy for you. ❤️', Fellow WAG Taylor Ward wrote: 'Amazing, congratulations ❤️❤️' Charlotte Tilbury wrote: 'Darling, what fabulous news!!! Sending you both heartfelt congratulations and so much LOVE!!' Piers Morgan penned: 'Wonderful news! Many congrats to you both'. The footballer only recently hit the headlines when he admitted that he would not propose to the mother of two of his children until everything had 'clicked'. He said on Netflix: 'I always tell her, 'when we get that click.' Like everything with our life, and she knows what I'm talking about. 'It could be in a year or it could be in six months or it could be in a month. I'm 1000% sure that it'll happen.' The couple have been in a relationship since 2016 and have daughters Alana, seven, and two-year-old Bella together. She is also the stepmother of his other three children. In an interview for her Netflix reality show I Am Georgina, the model told how she has been teased by friends over when she will get married. She said: 'They're always joking about the wedding. 'When is the wedding?' Since Jennifer Lopez's song 'The Ring Or When' came out, they started singing it to me. And well, this is not up to me.' Even though they aren't married, Cristiano has frequently referred to Georgina as his 'wife in the past'. In December, at the 2024 Globe Soccer Awards in Dubai, he said: 'It's a big pleasure to win this trophy. My oldest son is here, my wife [Georgina] is here.' And in a game of Mr. and Mrs. on his YouTube channel back in late August, he gave her the same title. In the same video, the couple also appeared to be wearing wedding rings. Following the surprise title, another video resurfaced, where he casually called Georgina his wife whilst discussing his morning routine. Speaking on the WHOOP podcast, he said: 'I take my coffee when I start my day. It's my the morning, I take my coffee, speak with my kids, with my wife and start the day.' With Ronaldo plying his trade in Saudi with Al-Nassr, the couple reside in the capital Riyadh. The happy news comes after the pair were devastated when they lost one of their twins during Georgina's childbirth in 2022. They were devastated when their male twin tragically died - a loss they later described as 'the greatest pain.' 'It is with our deepest sadness we have to announce that our baby boy has passed away. It is the greatest pain that any parents can feel,' read an announcement shared by the couple. 'Only the birth of our baby girl gives us the strength to live this moment with some hope and happiness. 'We would like to thank the doctors and nurses for all their expert care and support. We are all devastated at this loss and we kindly ask for privacy at this very difficult time.

Love Is Blind UK star forced to apologise as he says ‘never meant to make your Mrs cry'
The second part of Love Is Blind UK season 2 sees multiple contestants in tears and several stars walking off set. *Warning - This article contains minor spoilers for Love Is Blind UK season 2 episode 8.* The eighth episode of Love Is Blind UK season 2 saw things get very heated between two contestants, as rumours swirled about one star's 'flirty' behaviour. In the second instalment of the Netflix show, 28-year-old health coach Javen was seen flirting with multiple rejected contestants from the pods during a reunion party while his fiancee Katisha looked on. Later that night, Javen left the 31-year-old nanny from Dumfries to go on a night out with some of his co-stars, leaving her home alone in tears. Soon afterwards, Katisha's friend Megan, who is engaged to Kieran from the pods, came round to tell Katisha about Javen's behaviour on the night out. She claimed to Katisha that he had spent 'the whole night' with the single girls, including Kieran's ex-flame Sophie, and even went into a photobooth with her. Later in episode 8, Javen invited Megan and Kieran round in order to 'clear his name', but things quickly turned hostile as an argument broke out. He claimed that Megan had told Katisha 'half-truths' about what had happened that night, which had caused Katisha to leave him. Javen insisted he had spent time with some of the boys, including Patrick and Demola, that evening, but Megan said she had 'only ever seen him with Sophie, Yolanda and Aanu'. Things got particularly heated when Javen disagreed with the couple about his time with Sophie in a photobooth, with the former claiming there 'was no curtain' while Kieran and Sophie said the 'curtain was closed'. 'Do you think I'm stupid enough to… I don't know. I don't even know what you're insinuating that I was doing,' Javen fumed. Kieran then stepped in to defend Megan, saying: 'Everything that Meg has said to Katisha is what she saw and I also saw that, so there's no bull****.' 'No it is bull****,' Javen responded. 'To say I was with someone all night, bro, I was there for three hours.' Javen and Megan then began shouting over each other, with Megan eventually losing her cool and stating: 'You were all over Yolanda. You were all over Aanu. You also mentioned how Sophie is someone you'd like to f*** but you would just leave her.' 'I never said that,' Javen responded, as Megan insisted: 'You did! Mate, I don't care. I saw what I saw and told Katisha. Don't be mad about it. All I think is Katisha deserved to know what you were doing.' 'I already told her that!' Javen yelled, as Megan asked: 'Then what's the issue?'

See you never, Jav. Have a good life you f***ing pr***.' She then stormed out and burst into tears on the balcony, telling the cameras: 'I've had many arguments with people like Jav who just go over and over the same thing and try and deflect the argument onto the other person, so I had to remove myself from the conversation, because we were going nowhere.' 'I think he knows what he's done so agree to disagree. You go live your life, Jav.' Javen then apologised to Kieran, saying: 'I never meant to make her cry, so I apologise. 'I apologise for making your Mrs cry; that was not my intention. But I wanted to have this conversation so you guys knew where I stood. That is literally it.' 'Yeah,' Kieran simply nodded, before leaving the room to go and check on Megan, giving her a hug. 'You did right by your mate and that's all you can do,' he told her. Is it curtains for Katisha and Javen? Will Megan and Kieran tie the knot? We'll have to keep watching. Love Is Blind UK season 2 episodes 1-8 are available to watch on Netflix now.
