Netflix greenlights Emily in Paris season 6 after blockbuster season 5 performance

Hot on the heels of its fifth season release, Netflix has officially renewed the chic romantic dramedy Emily in Paris for a sixth season, delighting fans around the globe. The announcement came just days after the Season 5 premiere on December 18, 2025, which quickly racked up 26.8 million views in its first 11 days and soared to No. 2 on Netflix’s Global Top 10 English‑language chart landing in the top 10 in 91 countries and claiming the No. 1 spot in 24 of them.

Netflix revealed the renewal in playful fashion with a short video featuring star Lily Collins , who blows out a “6” candle perched on a giant croissant with the Eiffel Tower glittering in the background pure Emily energy that doubled as a cheeky celebratory message.

Season 5 took Emily (Collins) far from Paris to Rome, where she launched a satellite office for Agence Grateau and explored a steamy romance with Italian fashion heir Marcello. But in true Emily fashion, she ultimately chooses her bustling Paris life career, friends, and adventures over a quiet Italian future. Series creator Darren Star said the finale underscored Emily’s growth and her commitment to carving out her own path in Paris.

The finale also left fans gasping with a major cliffhanger : Gabriel (Lucas Bravo), now a private chef aboard a luxury yacht, sends Emily a postcard from Greece inviting her to join him on the sun‑soaked islands. That tease has set speculation ablaze about where Emily in Paris Season 6 might take its heroine next, with both cast and creators hinting that Greece could be a stunning new backdrop alongside Paris for more romance, drama, and espresso‑soaked sunsets.

Collins herself expressed excitement about the possible Greek twist, and insiders note that Mindy’s (Ashley Park) upcoming bachelorette party could also play into the setting shift, giving fans vacation vibes and scenic isle shots to look forward to.

Star has made it clear that while Paris will always be the heart of the show, the storytelling could breeze into new European locations organically. He also hinted that Emily and Gabriel aren’t done though any reunion won’t be a simple one, leaving plenty of emotional twists for Season 6.

The Season 5 cast lineup included Lily Collins, Philippine Leroy‑Beaulieu, Ashley Park, Lucas Bravo, Samuel Arnold, Bruno Gouery, William Abadie, Lucien Laviscount, Eugenio Franceschini, Thalia Besson, Paul Forman, Arnaud Binard, Minnie Driver and Michèle Laroque, with Minnie Driver’s Princess Gianna standing out as one of the most talked‑about new additions.

Meanwhile, creator Darren Star was honored with France’s highest civilian distinction, the Chevalier de la Légion d’Honneur, in December recognition of the cultural impact Emily in Paris has had on global audiences and even Parisian tourism.

Emily in Paris remains produced by Paramount Television Studios with Darren Star Productions and Jax Media , with Star and a team of executive producers guiding Emily’s escapades through fashion, friendships, and the endless chase for love. Season 6 is expected to begin production later this year, with fans eagerly awaiting news on release dates and fresh destinations.
