Emily in Paris season 5 is returning to Netflix on December 18, 2025, and if you ask me, I’m shocked that it’s coming back so soon. It’s been less than a year since we saw the second half of season 4, with the upcoming 10 episodes in season 5 turned around in lightning speed (well, at least according to the streaming service’s track record). As creator Darren Star told them: “This season is a Tale of Two Cities: Rome and Paris. Straddling both, Emily takes love and life to the next level,” which sort of doesn’t answer any questions we currently have.
When we left off, Emily (Lily Collins) was getting ready to leave the French capital behind for good, taking a job as the head of Agence Grateau Rome while simultaneously falling in love with the dashing Marcello (Eugenio Franceschini). Logically, season 5 should be Emily in Rome, but “a big secret threatens one of her closest relationships,” drawing her back. Emily is set to suffer heartbreak, work problems and career setbacks, so just another typical day in her life.
