Netflix has made a decision about the future of Emily in Paris as production starts on season 6 in Greece.
The streaming service confirmed on Thursday, May 21, that Emily in Paris was coming to an end after its sixth and now final season.
“Making Emily in Paris with this extraordinary cast and crew has been the trip of a lifetime,” creator Darren Star said in a statement. “As we embark on the final season, I am so grateful to Netflix, Paramount, and, most importantly, the fans who have taken this incredible journey with us.”
He continued: “We can’t wait to share this last chapter with you. Thank you for letting us be a part of your lives, inspiring your dreams of travel and your love of Paris. We will always have ‘Emily in Paris!’”
First look stills showed Lily Collins back on set as Emily Cooper. The hit series centers around Emily after her move to France from the U.S. for a new job. She subsequently ended up caught in a love triangle between Gabriel (Lucas Bravo) and Alfie (Lucien Laviscount).
Emily then moved on with Marcello (Eugenio Franceschini), but by the end of season 4, Gabriel realized that he wanted to fight for her. Emily, however, had moved to Rome and started her future with Marcello.
Season 5 took Emily and her friends back to Paris with a stop in Venice in the finale. In the last scene, however, viewers checked in with Gabriel, who was working on a boat that was about to dock in Greece, which paved the way for him to invite Emily to visit him.
“All we know is that we’re going to Greece and Monaco,” Bravo, 38, told Us Weekly in May. “We have no script. I have no idea. I do want them to be happy and in love because they’ve been working on it for six or seven years now.”
Bravo held out hope about Gabriel and Emily’s future, adding, “I hope it happens. I think some people want that, but whoever Emily ends up with will be the perfect choice because she knows better.”
Collins, 37, meanwhile, teased how season 6 will address Gabriel’s postcard to Emily.
“Does she get the postcard? I don’t know. Maybe she does. Maybe she doesn’t. I know we end up in Greece but I haven’t read anything. Things get lost in the mail,” she noted. “I’m happy when Emily’s happy.”
Star, 64, also showed support for Emily and Gabriel’s long-awaited reunion. “They deserve each other. I hope so,” he teased. “But I can’t promise. … She’s got a lot of options out there — and some possible new options too.”
Emily in Paris is currently streaming on Netflix.
