Emily in Paris: London Calling?
14 Dec
Summary
- Creator Darren Star is open to Emily Cooper moving to London.
- Lily Collins expressed interest in a London-based spin-off.
- French President Macron wants the show to stay in Paris.
Speculation is mounting that Emily Cooper, the beloved American expatriate, could soon be trading Parisian cafes for London's iconic streets. Series creator Darren Star has openly discussed the possibility, noting that a move to the English capital is a viable option, especially given the character Alfie's British roots.
Lead actress Lily Collins, a British native, has echoed this sentiment, expressing a strong desire for a London-centric spin-off. She envisions Emily immersing herself in the city's culture, from exploring Portobello Road's antique markets to visiting Buckingham Palace, perhaps even attempting to bring a smile to the Queen's Guard.
Despite these international considerations, French President Emmanuel Macron is actively campaigning to retain "Emily in Paris" within France. He views the show as a significant promotional asset for the country's attractiveness and has vowed to "fight hard" to keep Emily in Paris, a sentiment that may face new challenges with the upcoming season's potential transatlantic shift.
