Lily Collins is ready to return to Paris and Rome in summer as production of season five of Netflix series Emily in Paris will start in May, Production is going to begin in Rome first and then return to Paris this summer, as reported by a source.
Main Cast to Reunite, Except Camille Razat in Emily in Paris

They will all return, according to the outlet, former cast member Camille Razat, who acted in the first four seasons as Camille, is absent from this season.
Lucas Bravo’s Return as Gabriel a Surprise
Yet Bravo’s comeback as Gabriel is very surprising, since previously he told that he had been unhappy with the path his character was heading and had questioned if he wants to come back for season five, according to reports.
“I want to see if Gabriel gets back to his fun, cheeky, playful, alive self. Because three seasons playing melancholic, sad, depressed and lost is not fun anymore. It’s a comedy, everybody is having fun around me, everybody is jumping around, and I’m just slowly sinking into god knows what,” Bravo had remarked.
Plot Rumors Suggest Emily May Stay in Rome
Though little has been said of season five, rumors said the fourth one concluded with Emily’s show Agence Grateau opening an office in Rome that Sylvie is interested in having Emily take charge of, giving her a motive to remain in Italy close to her new beau, Marcello, and leaving it open with Gabriel, according to the outlet.
Following the season four finale, creator Darren Star shared, “Agence Grateau opened an office in Rome. They can be in more than one city, and Emily can spend time in Rome. She can spend time in Paris, too. She’s not leaving Paris,” he said.
Darren added, “We’ll spend some time in Rome. But she did not change her Instagram handle to Emily in Rome,” according to a source. Emily in Paris Season 5 will release later this year.
