Emily in Paris Season 5 Arrives: Romance and Adventure in Rome
Emily Cooper’s Latest Chapter Begins Today
Emily in Paris Season 5 will stream exclusively on Netflix beginning December 18, 2025, all episodes available at once to subscribers worldwide. The highly anticipated return of Lily Collins’ beloved character marks a significant shift for the series, as Emily’s journey takes an exciting turn as she steps beyond Paris and heads to Rome. This new season promises to deliver the fashion, romance, and drama that fans have come to expect, whilst exploring fresh territory in the Italian capital.
A Tale of Two Cities
Creator Darren Star says this season is “a tale of two cities: Rome and Paris,” with Emily taking “love and life to the next level.” Following the events of Season 4, the family agreed to give the PR agency a try and Sylvie asked Emily to stay in Rome to run the account and head Agence Grateau’s new Rome office. The shift represents an ambitious expansion for the series, though Star reassures viewers that “Emily’s going to have a presence in Rome,” but “it doesn’t mean she’s not going to be in Paris.”
New Romance and Familiar Faces
Emily In Paris Season 5 is set to explore Emily’s evolving love life, with her romance with Marcello-played by Italian heartthrob Eugenio Franceschini-emerging as a major talking point. However, complications remain as her on again, off again relationship with Gabriel (Lucas Bravo) is ever present, and the French chef makes an appearance in the trailer as he hugs Emily at a train station. The season also welcomes new cast members, with Academy Award–nominated actor Minnie Driver playing Princess Jane, a friend of Sylvie’s who married into a royal family.
What This Means for Fans
Netflix is dropping the entire season in a single go, allowing viewers to dive straight into Emily Cooper’s latest chapter without waiting between episodes. The series continues to captivate global audiences, with Emily in Paris Season 4 ranking No. 1 on the Netflix Global Top 10 when it premiered in August, garnering 19.9 million views in its first four days and reaching the Top 10 in 93 countries. As viewers settle in for this Roman adventure, the show’s ability to blend escapism with character growth ensures it remains essential viewing for fans worldwide.
