Season 4 of "Emily in Paris" ends with a significant twist: Emily, played by Lily Collins, is set to move to Rome. This shift marks a new chapter for the series. Emily's decision to relocate comes after she is tasked with heading the new Italian office of Agence Grateau. This move is not just professional but also personal, as Emily's budding romance with Marcello, blossoms.
Series creator Darren Star has hinted at the exciting developments awaiting Emily in Rome. "I feel like they have a real spark and a real connection and a real romantic connection.A lot of that's going to continue to play out next season."Emily's going to have a presence in Rome. It doesn't mean she's not going to be in Paris, but she's going to have a presence in Rome."
Emily's love life has always been a central theme of the show, and Season 4 is no exception. The finale sees Emily moving on from her on-again, off-again relationship with Gabriel. Instead, she finds herself drawn to Marcello. "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. 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," Lily Collins said.
Throughout the series, Emily has struggled with cultural differences, particularly the coldness often associated with the French. Her move to Rome is seen as an opportunity for her to find a better fit. "From the moment she stepped foot in Paris, Emily has been struggling with the cultural differences."
The announcement of a fifth season has been met with enthusiasm from fans. Darren Star expressed his excitement, saying, "We're thrilled with the incredible response to this season of Emily in Paris and excited to return for a fifth to continue Emily's adventures in Rome and Paris!"
