Emily in Paris is back and fans should expect to see some new characters involved in some pretty steamy storylines.

As the trailer suggested, our favourite marketing executive is faced with some pretty tough decisions.

Should she continue working with her boss Madeline Wheeler (Kate Walsh) or continue working with her stern officer Sylvie Grateau (Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu).

And the drama won’t stop there, as she also finds herself torn (once again) between chef Gabriel (Lucas Bravo) and English banker Alfie (Lucien Laviscount).

But it wouldn’t be Emily in Paris without some vibrant personalities, or a potential rival in the form of Nicolas de Leon, but who is the actor who plays the wealthy executive.

Who Is Paul Forman?

Paul is a French-English actor and model based in London.

Before landing the role of Nicolas, the 28-year-old star had guest cameos in series such as Starz’s The Spanish Princess, Prime Video’s Riches and Frank of Ireland.

Paul’s character Nicholas, had his eye on Emily’s bestie Mindy Chen (Ashley Park) which made things pretty uncomfortable for her boyfriend and band member Benoit (Kevin Dias).

The character description says: ‘The dashing exec is desperate to prove himself as more than a nepotism baby under the crushing pressure of the de Leons’ famous wealth and status.

‘Unsurprisingly, Nicolas is exactly the kind of person a go-getter like Emily would love to work with.

‘But it’s an unexpected personal connection that will bring them together instead.’

Paul recently shared how he landed his exciting new role and it sounds like it was all a bit of a whirlwind.

‘I had auditioned for the role and the next day, Darren Star asked to meet me via Zoom,’ he told Cosmopolitan.

‘We had a very friendly chat about life and the show and whatnot and then total silence.

‘I firmly believed I didn’t get the role. Then, late one night, out of nowhere, I got a call from my agent that I had the offer. I realize now that I didn’t even have time to process or get too excited because I started work in Paris only two days late.’

Paul has just over 83k followers on Instagram, however we reckon his following is about to skyrocket.

Emily in Paris is available to stream on Netflix.
