Emily in Paris’ Ashley Park Reveals How Lily Collins Predicted Her Relationship With Costar Paul Forman (Exclusive)
Netflix is saying oui to more Emily in Paris.
The hit TV series starring Lily Collins has been renewed for season five, the streamer announced Sept. 16.
Amid the exciting news, Collins—who plays the titular marketing wiz Emily Cooper—shared where she hopes to see her character’s budding romance with new love interest Marcello (played by Italian actor Eugenio Franceschini) go after their chance meeting in Rome during season four.
“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,” the actress told Netflix’s Tudum. “We want to have Emily be able to smile without condition. We want to see her beyond her vacay mode. And he comes at that perfect time.”
Series creator Darren Star also promised fans will see Emily and Marcello’s relationship blossom in future episodes.
“I feel like they have a real spark and a real connection and a real romantic connection,” he told Tudum. “A lot of that’s going to continue to play out next season.”
