After almost a month of waiting, the second half of season 4 of “Emily in Paris” arrived on Netflix today (Like “Bridgerton,” “Stranger Things,” and “You” before it, the French-set series is split into two seasons, with the first five episodes premiering last month) But will this romantic comedy centered around Emily Cooper (Lily Collins) and her various handsome love interests continue past its fourth season?

“Emily in Paris” creator Darren Star, the mastermind behind some of television's most beloved titles, including “Beverly Hills 90210,” “Melrose Place” and “Sex and the City,” recently spoke at a season four press junket in Rome, spoke about the future of the series (Yes, in the fourth season, our favorite Frenchmen will be flying off to the Italian capital)

Speaking to PEDESTRIANTV, the star revealed that she intends to continue producing “Emily in Paris” for “as many seasons as it takes” However, he is not thinking too far ahead, adding: “Let's start with season five and take it from there”

Note: As of press time, Netflix had not officially picked up “Emily in Paris” for a fifth season The third and fourth seasons were greenlit simultaneously, with series star Lily Collins confirming on social media in January 2022 Similarly, the second season was announced in November 2020, a month after the series premiered In other words, if we follow TV tradition, it should be announced around October of this year whether there will be an “Emily in Paris” season 5

As for the longevity of “Emily in Paris,” particularly the underlying whimsical streaming model, Star speculates that it has to do with the close female friendship between Emily, played by Cooper, and her best friend Mindy Chen, played by Ashley Park

“Especially when it comes to ‘Emily in Paris,’ when you come to a foreign country alone, the friends you meet become very valuable to you,” Starr told PEDESTRIANTV “At the beginning of the series, we knew that Emily (Lily Collins) and Mindy (Ashley Park) were going to have an important relationship I wanted Mindy to be the kind of person that Ashley Park falls in love with So Mindy was always going to be super important in this series” We'll find out what happens to Emily, Mindy, and the rest of the “Emily in Paris” friends when new episodes are released this week Tom's Guide will provide all the behind-the-scenes, actor insights, character descriptions, and whether or not there will be a fifth season of the Netflix hit in advance of Season 4 Part 2, as well as all things “Emilie in Paris” Until then, you can catch up with all of your favorite characters by re-watching the show's first three seasons and Season 4 Part 1 via your Netflix subscription
