Netflix recently announced the renewal of Emily in Paris for a fifth season, and to celebrate its success, an interesting featurette about the locations (including some in Italy!) from the fourth season has just been released. The season debuted on August 15 at the top of Netflix’s Global Top 10, racking up 19.9 million views in its first four days and reaching the Top 10 in 93 countries. The fan-favourite series has remained in the charts for four consecutive weeks since then. The show has captivated audiences worldwide for four seasons, each of which ranked in the Global Top 10 for English-language series for several weeks. The series immerses fans in the fabulous and chic life of Emily, becoming a source of inspiration for fashion, memes, trends, tourism, and much more.
Synopsis: After the dramatic events surrounding Camille and Gabriel’s failed wedding, Emily is unsettled: she has strong feelings for two different guys, but now Gabriel is expecting a child with his ex, and Alfie’s worst fears about her and Gabriel have been confirmed. At the agency, Sylvie is forced to confront a thorny dilemma from her past for the sake of her marriage, and the Agence Grateau team must deal with staffing changes. Mindy and the band are preparing for Eurovision, but when funds run out, they are forced to cut back. The chemistry between Emily and Gabriel is undeniable as they work together to earn a Michelin star, but two big secrets threaten to jeopardize everything they’ve dreamed of. As old habits clash with new problems, Emily finds herself drawn to a potential new romance…and a new city.
It’s worth noting that this new season features several new entries, including Raoul Bova, who joins the cast as Giancarlo, a charming, confident, and successful advertising director from Rome, who is also Sylvie’s former film professor. Eugenio Franceschini plays Marcello: a direct and self-assured native of Rome who values simplicity, is practical but never flashy, and stays true to his family business’s roots.
