Lily Collins Follows Her Heart in Emily in Paris Season 2 Trailer

Netflix has debuted the official Emily in Paris Season 2 trailer for the upcoming return of Darren Star’s comedy-drama series, starring Lily Collins, who previously earned a Golden Globe nomination for her leading performance in the first season.

The video features Emily, whose life is getting more chaotic and complicated, as she tries to navigate the consequences following her unforgettable night with Gabriel. The series is scheduled to make its return on December 22, 2021.

Emily in Paris focuses on Emily (Collins), an ambitious twenty-something marketing executive from Chicago, who unexpectedly lands her dream job in Paris when her company acquires a French luxury marketing company — and she is tasked with revamping their social media strategy. Emily’s new life in Paris is filled with intoxicating adventures and surprising challenges as she juggles winning over her work colleagues, making friends, and navigating new romances.

“In Season 2, now more entrenched in her life in Paris, Emily’s getting better at navigating the city but still struggling with the idiosyncrasies of French life,” reads the official logline. “After stumbling into a love triangle with her neighbor and her first real French friend, Emily is determined to focus on her work — which is getting more complicated by the day. In French class, she meets a fellow expat” — aka Alfie — “who both infuriates and intrigues her.”

Joining Collins are Ashley Park (Tales of the City), Philippine Leroy Beaulieu (Call My Agent), Lucas Bravo (Smart Ass), Samuel Arnold (Antony & Cleopatra), Camille Razat (The 15:17 to Paris), and Bruno Gouery (Doc Martin). The recurring cast roster includes Kate Walsh, William Abadie, and Arnaud Viard.

Emily in Paris is created and executive produced by Darren Star, the creator behind popular classic shows such as Beverly Hills 90210, Melrose Place and Sex and the City. Producers are Collins and Andrew Fleming along with Tony Hernandez and Lilly Burns of Jax Media.

The first season, which is now available for streaming, was Netflix’s most popular comedy series of 2020 with 58 million households worldwide watching in its first 28 days.
