Emily in Paris is getting a sixth season from Netflix.
The news revealed Monday comes two weeks after the arrival of all 10 episodes of Season 5 on the streamer. Season 5 ended with a few cliffhangers, including one for Mindy (Ashley Park).
When Nicolas de Léon came back into the picture midseason, he had an uphill battle ahead of him to win back Mindy’s trust. By the end of the season, it seems he has done just that because Mindy accepts his marriage proposal in a gondola in Venice alongside Emily (Lily Collins) and Marcelo (Eugenio Franceschini). This is only slightly challenged by a flame kindled between Mindy and Alfie (Lucien Laviscount) earlier on in the show.
“Anything’s possible, and I definitely feel like the two of them had a lot of chemistry, and it came out of left field for Mindy,” creator Darren Star told Deadline in a Season 5 interview. “It’s not the way she saw her life going.”

In the finale’s last moments, Alfie confronts Mindy, notices the ring on her finger and wishes her luck. He had previously shared his thoughts on Nico with her. Mindy looks at Emily and says, “What am I doing?” before the show ends.
“Mindy’s never chosen the easier path for herself. In past seasons too she’s always picked the harder path for herself when she knows it’s the right path,” Park told Deadline. “I think because maybe this rift with Emily softened her, I don’t want to say weakened her, she kind of just wants to choose the easy path. And we see her make decisions in a spontaneous way that maybe she shouldn’t.”

As for Emily, she broke things off with Marcello, thinking he was going to propose to her because he was holding onto the ring for Nico. Then, Gabriel, who got a job as a chef on a yacht for most of the season, sent her a postcard asking him to join her in Greece.
“The thing that’s interesting about [Season 5] is, instead of it being open-ended for Emily, Emily is cool. She is fine. She is actually more concerned at work with what Princess Jane is bringing to the table,” Collins told Deadline. “She’s great with how she handled things with Gabriel and Marcello. It’s Gabriel that’s unsure, and I love that there’s a shift there.”
As for whether the show is officially heading to Greece, both Star and Collins remained coy but shared hopes to do so.
The last cliffhanger revolves around the fate of Agence Grateau, for which Sylvie (Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu) had to bring aboard a white knight due to financial losses.
