Shortly before 7 p.m., <strong>Diego Borella<\/strong> collapsed on the set, in front of the production teams and cast. Emergency services intervened quickly, but were unable to resuscitate him. The doctor present confirmed his death, probably due to a <strong>sudden heart attack<\/strong>.   <\/p>\n\n<p>A native of Venice who trained in <strong>Rome<\/strong>, <strong>London<\/strong> and <strong>New York<\/strong>, Diego Borella was active not only in the film industry, but also in the <strong>visual arts<\/strong> and <strong>literature<\/strong>, where he wrote children&#8217;s stories. His friends and colleagues hail him as an elegant, brilliant and much-loved man. &#8220;His life was cut short, so there&#8217;s not much to say. Just immense sadness,&#8221; said his friend Mattia Berto.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">A shoot marked by tragedy<\/h2>\n\n<p>Production on the fifth season, which began on <em>August 15<\/em>, was due to end the following Monday. The schedule included filming in <strong>Paris, Rome and Venice<\/strong>, with the first images already shared by Netflix. This incident casts a shadow over the series, which has become a veritable international phenomenon.  <\/p>\n\n<p>In Paris, where the series remains anchored by its plot and iconic settings &#8211; from the Place de l&#8217;Estrapade to the Pont Alexandre III &#8211; this drama is also a reminder of how inseparable the capital is from the fictional identity. Shooting was to alternate between Italian scenes and new Parisian chapters. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">An eagerly awaited season<\/h2>\n\n<p>Despite this tragic interruption, production has confirmed that Season 5 remains scheduled for release on <strong>Netflix<\/strong> on <em>December 18, 2025<\/em>. The story will pick up after the separation of<strong>Emily (Lily Collins)<\/strong> and <strong>Gabriel (Lucas Bravo)<\/strong>, while exploring her budding relationship with <strong>Marcello (Eugenio Franceschini)<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n<p>The cast features many familiar faces, including <strong>Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu<\/strong>, <strong>Ashley Park<\/strong>, <strong>Samuel Arnold<\/strong>, <strong>Bruno Gouery<\/strong>, <strong>William Abadie<\/strong>, <strong>Lucien Laviscount<\/strong> and <strong>Thalia Besson<\/strong>. New this season: the arrival of <strong>Mich\u00e8le Laroque<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n<p>Also read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parisselectbook.com\/en\/2025\/08\/23\/luxury-bags-7-vintage-models-sure-fire-values-for-back-to-school\/\">Luxury bags: the 7 vintage models, sure-fire values for back-to-school<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Filming on season 5 of Emily in Paris came to an abrupt halt after the sudden death of assistant director Diego Borella, aged 47.
