France President Emmanu·el Macron said he was "super proud· for his wifeBrigitte Macron's cameo in the fourth season of Netflix's Emily in Paris," the Associated Press reported on October 9.
When asked by Variety magazine whether the crew invited him to appear, Macron responded humorously: "I'm not as attractive as Brigitte." ”
71-year-old France First Lady Brigitte "plays" herself in the new season of the American drama "Emily in Paris".
"I'm very proud and she's happy to do the same." Macron told the media, "It's only a few minutes, but I think it's a very good moment for her." ”
"I think it's good for France's image." Macron stressed, adding that the TV series favors the attractiveness of France.
"So it's a really good move for my own work." Macron added.
Shortly after the series aired, Lily Collins, who played the heroine Emily in ·the show, told the Associated Press that Brigitte was a big fan of the show. Collins said that back a few years ago, the first lady invited her to meet with the creator of the series, · Darren Star, and shared her desire to appear on the show.
"She is very kind, warm and hospitable, and she is very passionate about the show." Collins said, "She was so much fun on set. ”
In the second part of the fourth season of Emily in Paris, Emily will travel to Rome in Italy for a vacation.
But Macron wants Emily, the show's protagonist, to return to the France capital in the coming seasons.
"We're going to fight for it. We will ask the crew to stay. Macron joked, "'Emily in Paris' in Rome doesn't make sense." ”
It is worth mentioning that the life story of Brigitte, the first lady of France, will be brought to the screen. It is reported that France Gaumont Film is expected to produce a 6-episode mini-series. As for who will play Brigitte, this is kept secret for the time being.
