'Just as everything falls into place, a work idea backfires, and the fallout cascades into heartbreak and career setbacks,' the synopsis reads. 'Seeking stability, Emily leans into her French lifestyle, until a big secret threatens one of her closest relationships. Tackling conflict with honesty, Emily emerges with deeper connections, renewed clarity, and a readiness to embrace new possibilities.'

Returning for season five of the hit series is Mindy Chen (Ashley Park), Gabriel (Lucas Bravo), Sylvie Grateau (Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu), Julien (Samuel Arnold), Luc (Bruno Gouery), Antoine Lambert (William Abadie), Alfie (Lucien Laviscount), Marcello (Eugenio Franceschini), Genevieve (Thalia Besson), Nico (Paul Forman), Laurent G (Arnaud Binard), Princess Jane (Minnie Driver), Jake (Bryan Greenberg) and Yvette (Michèle Laroque).

Noticeably missing from the line-up is Lucas Bravo, who decided to hang up his hat after the fourth season of the series, during which time he felt as though he had grown apart from the character.

'The "sexy chef" was very much part of me in season one and we grew apart season after season because of the choices he makes and because of the direction they make him take,' Bravo told IndieWire last October. 'I've never been so far away from him.'

It was also previously confirmed that longtime cast member Camille Razat, who played Camille, Gabriel's former love interest and Emily's friend, will not be returning for season five.

All ten episodes of Emily in Paris season five will premiere on December 18 on Netflix.
