'Emily in Paris' Cast: Everything We Know About the Actors
The cast of Netflix's new show features several big names, from Lily Collins to Philippine Leroy-Beaulie. Here's who's who in the 'Emily in Paris' cast.
Previews for Emily in Paris have left many of us saying "oh là là." From the beautiful Parisian backdrops to the stunning French street style, the Netflix show looks—as the French say—très magnifique. Not the mention, the Netflix series, created by Darren Star—yes, the man behind Sex and the City, Younger, and Melrose Place—features an insanely talented and stunning cast. Come for American stars like Lily Collins and Kate Walsh and stay for Parisian up-and-comers like Lucas Bravo and Camille Razat who will surely have you thinking "oh mon dieu." Find out who's who in the Emily in Paris cast before the rom-com hits the streaming giant on October 2. (Just make sure you've stocked up on champagne, macarons, and croissants before hitting play.)

Lily Collins stars as the titular character in the Netflix series. And much like her character, Emily, she's one of the few Americans in the mostly Parisian cast.

In the show, Ashley Park plays Mindy Chen, Emily's Parisian BFF and city guide. The Grammy- and Tony-nominated actress is mainly known for her work on Broadway, from playing Gretchen Wieners in the musical Mean Girls to starring in Sunday in the Park With George and The King and I.
