Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu, who plays role of Emily’s French boss said that while series pokes fun at French, it also takes on Americans, pitting different working styles against one another but hinted at newfound cooperation between two cultures. Emily in Paris adds two new cast members, Paul Forman and Melia Kreiling in upcoming series.
