Monaco is set to feature in the sixth season of Emily in Paris, Netflix’s hit romantic comedy series, with production scheduled to begin in May, according to Variety.
The Principality joins Greece as a new location for the globe-trotting show, which has previously filmed in Paris, Rome, Venice, Saint-Tropez and Megève. The addition of Monaco continues the series’ pattern of using glamorous European settings as backdrops for its storylines.
The core cast returns for season six, including Lily Collins, Lucas Bravo, Ashley Park, Lucien Laviscount, Samuel Arnold, Bruno Gouery and Andrew Fleming.
Plot details remain under wraps, though the Greek location points to developments between Emily and her on-again, off-again love interest Gabriel — a French chef last seen departing for a job on a yacht. In the season five finale, Gabriel sends Emily a postcard inviting her on a Greek getaway, leaving the door open for a reunion.
Season five debuted at number two on Netflix’s global Top 10, drawing 13.5 million views in its first four days. Creator Darren Star, who received France’s Legion of Honour in December, has described Gabriel as Emily’s “big love” and said he cannot imagine the series without him.
No details have been released on which locations within Monaco will be used or when filming in the Principality is scheduled to take place.
