Emily in Paris' creator Darren Star hopes for a Season 5 after the end of Season 4 Part 2 gives Emily more reason to stay in Rome.

Emily in Paris fans were left wondering at the end of season 4 whether Emily will end up leaving Paris and moving to Rome indefinitely — but the series creator Darren Star says Paris will still play a role in the upcoming season no matter what.

Emily in Paris Season 5 is officially confirmed after the fourth season came out as part of the 2024 premiere schedule.

Netflix has confirmed that Emily in Paris will return for a fifth season. Collins announced the renewal on September 16 during her spot on Good Morning America. “There is breaking news!” the actress said. “For the first time, I get to talk about the fact that there will be a Season 5. Yay!”

In another interview, Star explained why his characters have so much trouble with love. “I don’t think there’s much of a story once happily-ever-after happens,” said Star. “These are very passionate relationships and strong characters and what keeps me engaged is finding those obstacles that feel truly emotional.

Oui! Emily in Paris has been renewed at Netflix. The Darren Star series starring Lily Collins will return for a fifth season, the streamer announced, with Star confirming Rome will continue to be an Emily in Paris locale.

The latest season of the Lily Collins-led Netflix series featured new locations and new romances for Emily, Sylvie, and more.
