"Emily in Paris" Star Thalia Besson Returns for Season 5
Yara Sameh Thalia Besson, who played deceitful antagonist Geneviève in Season 4 of Netflix's hit romantic comedy series 'Emily in Paris,' is back for Season 5, which is currently filming in Paris. Besson, the daughter of French director Luc Besson, is joining the key recurring cast, notably Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu, who plays Emily's nonchalant boss Sylvie, Samuel Arnold (Julien), Bruno Gouery (Luc), William Abadie (Antoine Lambert), and Ashley Park, who stars as Emily's best friend, Mindy Chen. Season 5 also features the return of Emily Cooper's new Italian love interest, Marcello (Eugenio Franceschini), and her one-and-off partners, the sexy French chef Gabriel (Lucas Bravo) and dashing Brit Alfie (Lucien Laviscount). A source says another male character will join the show this season. Geneviève is the second 'villain' from 'Emily in Paris,' following Camille, Gabriel's French partner who was played by Camille Razat in the first four seasons of the show. The American-French stepdaughter of Sylvie, Geneviève, is born out of wedlock. Geneviève is an NYU grad who moved to Paris in Season 4 and got hired at Agence Grateau, where Emily gracefully took her under her wing. However, Geneviève isn't as innocent as she appears to be, and she soon starts to attempt to steal her clients and seduce Emily's boyfriend, Gabriel. The latter ultimately turns down Geneviève and tries to win Emily back after learning that she's moved to Italy. Season 4 wraps with a cliffhanger as Gabriel surprises Emily by showing up on the doorsteps of her new flat in Rome. Season 5 launched filming last month in Rome and returned to the French capital several weeks ago. The story picks up days after Season 4 ends, as Emily settles into her apartment in Rome to run Agence Grateau's Italian office and spend time with Marcello, the charming and confident heir of a family-owned cashmere company. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean
