Fans await word about the Netflix hit Emily in Paris Season 5, especially after several cliffhangers were left at the end of Season 4. Viewers worldwide have grown in love with the series, which follows Lily Collins as Emily Cooper, perfectly mixing romance and comedy against the backdrop of Emily's American view clashing with the real thing in France.

While the series has not been officially renewed for season 5, there have been strong hints that the show will continue. A walk-on role for a potential season 5 was auctioned off during a charity auction at the Cannes Film Festival in May 2024, raising speculation the renewal is just around the corner.

But Netflix hasn't announced season 5. The auction site later added a caveat that the role is contingent on a future show renewal. That wouldn't be out of the question, considering the show's popularity worldwide and how quickly the streamer has renewed it until now.


Emily in Paris Season 5 teased at Cannes Auction

Probably the biggest hint at a possible season 5 came during a charity auction held on the grounds of the Cannes Film Festival in May 2024. The event auctioned off a walk-on role for a future season, meaning one would show up and be able to make a small appearance on the show.

That went for more than €250,000 and went toward HIV and AIDS research, and the winner was also granted access to the Los Angeles premiere for season 4. As much as that excited the fans, Netflix quickly pointed out that no formal season 5 renewal had been done.

Later, an update on the auction website stated that the role would only be possible if the show gets its official renewal. Whatever the case, the event has added fuel to the fire of rumors and optimism regarding the continuation of the show.


Why a renewal for Emily in Paris Season 5 wouldn't be surprising?

Emily in Paris has continued to be a massive success for the streamer, always finding its place within the top ranks throughout its seasons. The romantic dramedy ranked 45 out of thousands of other movies and international series, amassing more than 161 million viewing hours between January and June 2023.

By the later parts of 2023, though, the rank did start to fall, but the show still seems to hold loads of global attention. Its success is not limited to the US; it has become fully international, especially in strong markets like the UK. It stayed in the Top 10 for 40 consecutive days after its release in the UK.

Due to such a strong performance, Netflix granted Emily in Paris that rare double renewal for seasons 3 and 4, representing the platform's confidence in its appeal. Against this backdrop, it would be a surprise if Netflix did not renew the show's fifth season, especially with the relenting success and cultural impact that it has received over time.


What can you expect from Emily in Paris in Season 5?

If Emily in Paris gets renewed for season five, audiences are guaranteed much more drama and romantic tension. Season 4 was divided into two parts and concluded on September 12, 2024, leaving a lot of storylines not wrapped up.

Whether it's the evolving romantic relationship of Emily with her new boyfriend or the twists in her professional life, Season 5 could elaborate on such plots for more light-hearted yet emotional content. Season 5 might also introduce new destinations, much like the show teased a Roman holiday in season 4.

Such a mix of travel, culture, and growing up has become a staple for Emily in Paris and would probably continue with any more seasons. With key characters like Emily, Gabriel, Camille, and Sylvie returning, the fifth season may further explore how those selected characters relate personally and professionally.


As season 4 wrapped up on September 12, 2024, viewers will await an official confirmation of season 5 from Netflix. Until then, fans can have a dose of more intrigue, romance, and chic escapades from their favorite series, Emily in Paris, on Netflix.
