Lily Collins gives fans a sneak peek behind-the-scenes of Emily In Paris Season 5 as new series drops on Netflix

Lily Collins gave fans a sneak peek behind the scenes of Emily in Paris Season five on Thursday as the new series finally landed on Netflix. 

The actress, 36, who stars as marketing executive Emily Cooper in the series, took to her Instagram to post several snaps of herself and her co-stars on set in Paris, as she thanked her team and fans for all the love and support. 

In one sweet snap, Emily donned a chic black and white jumpsuit as she giggled uncontrollably with her co-stars Samuel Arnold, 34, and Ashley Park, 34. 

She also shared a photo of herself and Ashley posing for a silly selfie in front of the Eiffel Tower. 

Meanwhile, in another snap, Lily looked effortlessly chic in a black gingham off-the-shoulder top and a black pinstripe skirt with a slit, striking up a pose for the camera. 

In another sweet on-set behind-the-scenes photo, Lily and her co-star Ashley giggled uncontrollably as they danced together, with the Eiffel Tower in the backdrop. 

Meanwhile, in another outdoor snap, Lily cut a stylish figure in a white summer dress with a blue polka dot print, striking a sultry pose on a chair as she took a break from filming. 

The actress also gave fans a glimpse of her lavish wardrobe, which was filled with a plethora of vibrant coloured heels and featured a rail full of chic clothing items. 

She also posed alongside her new co-star, Minnie Driver, 55, in another shot, in which the duo wore similar ensembles. 

Meanwhile, in another shot, her co-star Bruno Gouery, 50, beamed as Lily took a close-up photo of him beside a nude painting in France. 

In one funny video, Lily can be seen running along as a team member threw what appears to be mini sandbags at her as she filmed a running scene. 

Sharing the snaps to Instagram, Lily captioned the post: 'TODAY IS THE DAY! Season five is officially yours and so is this peek behind the scenes. 

'Narrowing this down to 20 slides was nearly impossible... never a dull moment on set with this group. 

'Feeling insanely grateful for my @emilyinparis family and for all of you who are binging it the moment it dropped. We wouldn’t be here with you! ENJOY!…'

It comes after Emily in Paris released a first look at its fifth season, with producers also teasing a possible exit by a major character. 

Netflix released the trailer to fans earlier this month, ahead of the brand-new season's launch on December 18. 

The clip shows Lily's alter ego Emily as she adjusts to her new life in Rome with Eugenio Franceschini's character Marcello.

Elsewhere, with Emily struggling to settle in, Gabriel appears as the pair have a heart-to-heart.

The character, played by Lucas Bravo, tells her he's excited by the future, and she should be too.

He's then seen boarding a train, with it not clear if he's exploring Rome or returning to Paris.

It further fuels speculation that Gabriel is being written out of the show following his split from Emily, after his absence from the initial trailer caused alarm amongst fans.

A synopsis for season five released by Netflix reads: 'Now the head of Agence Grateau Rome, Emily faces professional and romantic challenges as she adapts to life in a new city.

'But just as everything falls into place, a work idea backfires, and the fallout cascades into heartbreak and career setbacks. Seeking stability, Emily leans into her French lifestyle, until a big secret threatens one of her closest relationships.

'Tackling conflict with honesty, Emily emerges with deeper connections, renewed clarity, and a readiness to embrace new possibilities.'

Earlier this year, Camille Razat shocked fans by revealing she had quit the hit series.

The French actress, 31 - who plays Camille in the romantic comedy drama - took to Instagram to reveal the shocking news with an emotional goodbye post after fans fumed at bosses for 'destroying the character'.

Camille has played Emily's pal and love rival in the show since the programme hit the streaming service back in 2020.

Sharing various snaps from her time on the show, she wrote: 'After an incredible journey, I’ve made the decision to step away from Emily in Paris.

'It has been a truly wonderful experience, one filled with growth, creativity, and unforgettable memories.

'I’m deeply grateful to @starmandarren and the entire team at @netflix and @paramountpics for their trust and for giving me the opportunity to bring Camille to life and leaving the door open for her return, as she will always be a part of Emily In Paris world.

'This character has meant a lot to me, and I feel that her storyline has naturally come to an end. It felt like the right moment to explore new horizons.

'I’ve recently wrapped two series: Nero for Netflix and the Lost Station girls for Disney+. I’m also excited to share that I’ve launched my own production company, @tazar_production.

'We mainly produce music videos and short films for now, but we’re currently developing our first feature film, something I’m truly passionate about and excited to grow.

'I leave the show with nothing but love and admiration for the cast, crew, and fans who have supported us along the way.

'Thank you for the beautiful ride.'

Her fans and co-stars rushed to the comments section to share their support.

Lily said: 'Love you sister. It’s been a wild ride and an absolute pleasure. You’re a rockstar. So proud of you.'

Emily in Paris season five is now available to stream on Netflix.
