Five major updates about ‘Emily in Paris’ Season 6 so far
Emily in Paris season six is officially happening, and we actually have real updates this time, and no, these are not just guesses. Netflix has confirmed the new season, and filming is set to begin soon. But most importantly, the story is even expanding beyond Paris with new locations already teased. And of course, we had to bring everything for you to know about it.
But let’s first get a quick recap of where things stand after season five, because it was a lot. Emily almost left Paris to start a new life with Marcello in Solitano, which felt like a huge turning point. But in the end, she realises that’s not what she truly wants and decides to go back to Paris, back to Agence Grateau, to her friends, and to everything she’s built there.
At the same time, her situation with Gabriel is still completely unresolved. It’s like, come on, Netflix, six seasons of miscommunication and bad timing. We saw her being single again while he is off working as a private chef, and their relationship is basically left hanging with all that tension still there. Meanwhile, Mindy gets engaged to Nicolas, but things aren’t exactly simple. All this while the agency is going through major changes.
Overall, there is a lot to catch in the sixth season for both the show and us. And now, with it officially on the way and new updates already coming in, it looks like all of that drama is about to continue in an even bigger way.
Five major updates about Emily in Paris Season 6 so far
1. Season 6 is officially confirmed by Netflix
First things first, season six is officially happening. Netflix has renewed Emily in Paris, which was sooner or later, so nothing shocking, but what matters here is the timing. This season is going to be a crucial one because it follows the story where Emily basically reset her entire life, so the story clearly isn’t slowing down or wrapping up anytime soon.
At the end of Season 5, Emily chooses to return to Paris instead of starting a new life with Marcello, but nothing is really “settled”. She is single again, and things with Gabriel are still unresolved. More importantly, her work situation is shifting with new changes at the agency. So this renewal isn’t going to be another casual continuation in the storylines. A lot’s about to be changed. With so many open storylines, season six is likely where things start getting real consequences, especially when it comes to Emily’s love life.
2. Filming will begin this May
We might not have a release date yet, but Emily in Paris is finally moving into production, and that’s a huge update in itself. With filming set to begin this May, the reason why it’s a big deal is that it means the gap between seasons might not be super long, and the show is staying on a pretty steady schedule.
What’s interesting is how this connects to where season five left off. The story is clearly continuing directly from that moment, with Emily back in Paris. Starting filming this soon is a good sign because this suggests there is no major time jump, and we will probably pick up right in the middle of that emotional mess. It also means the writers are likely locked in the storyline early, especially with multiple locations involved this time. And realistically, if filming starts in mid-2026, a late 2026 release feels very possible.
3. Greece and Monaco will be the new major locations
Finally, the update everyone’s been looking forward to. Emily in Paris no longer justified the title after Emily started travelling the world. She practically moved to Rome in season five and is clearly not staying in Paris in the next season. The story is expanding to Greece and Monaco, and that is confirmed by the makers.
And this actually connects directly to that season five ending. Gabriel is off working as a private chef and heading to Greece, and he literally invites Emily to join him. So the fact that Greece is now a confirmed filming location basically confirms that this storyline is going to play out in a big way. Monaco also makes total sense for the show’s vibe with all that luxury and high-profile clients, which could tie into Emily’s work life and the agency’s expansion. This also means new characters and more drama, and Netflix knows that we are seated.
4. The main cast is returning
While Netflix hasn’t dropped a full official cast list yet, all signs point to the main cast coming back. Of course, they have to; it wouldn’t make sense otherwise, considering how season five ended. Emily’s story is still very much ongoing, especially with her choosing Paris, but her personal life is a mess. Gabriel is still a huge part of that equation, and with the Greece setup, his role feels even more important. So yeah, both of them are pretty much essential to what happens next.
The same goes for Mindy, whose engagement to Nicolas is definitely not as simple as it looks. And how can we forget the characters at the agency? Sylvie has a lot going on in both her personal and professional life, so we’ll see who her next target is. Overall, it’s good to know that everyone is coming back. All that is left now is to keep an eye out for the new characters.
5. Mindy’s engagement drama is far from over
Mindy’s storyline is actually one of the most interesting going into season six, because her engagement to Nicolas didn’t exactly feel like a happy ending. Yes, she said yes, but the finale makes it pretty clear that things are still complicated, especially with Alfie still emotionally in the picture. Unlike Emily, whose love life is still undecided, Mindy has technically made a choice, but it feels rushed.
Her relationship with Nicolas comes with too many expectations and a very different lifestyle, which could start to affect her independence and career. It was clear from the finale that there is more to it, but it’s too soon to say something because Emily in Paris has always surprised its fans with a twist.
