Continuing the journey, as the Paris Olympics takes center stage, the team has not only seized the opportunity to excite existing fans but also to invite new ones, suggesting a win-win scenario for both the games and the series.

In today’s age of increased digital presence, witful campaigns and promotional events tick the boxes for the audience. So when the Paris Olympics is nearing the brink and Emily in Paris has been off the screens for quite some time, the duo found a quirky way around to reach its spectators.

Lily Collins, Emily of Emily in Paris, recently took to Instagram to share a playful ad in collaboration with NBC. “Emily has some big plans for the World’s Fastest Man @nojo18 this summer at the #ParisOlympics,” she wrote on Instagram as she put up a promo clip involving Noah Lyles. Emily, doing what she does best, pitches a standout metallic gold custom-designed wear for Noah during his races. However, it comes with a ridiculously long cape. “It is safe, but maybe not for the other runner,” she adds.

The ad campaign arrived after multiple strikes in the entertainment industry and the 2024 Olympics, which posed challenges for the ‘Emily in Paris’ team in terms of filming sites and regulations. Although the strikes have now cleared, securing filming sets may still be an issue for the crew due to the Olympic Games’ bookings. However, with the ad promoting the games and potentially hinting at improved situations for the next season’s arrival, fans are eagerly on board for this collaboration.
