It’s time for Emily Cooper to update her language-learning app, because our favorite American in Paris is headed for a few new European destinations in Emily in Paris Season 4. She’ll do it in two parts, which will be released in August and September, and now you can see brand-new photos and the trailer, which teases what it’s like to be single in Paris.

Creator Darren Star tells Tudum, “Emily finds herself with a busy travel schedule in Season 4 of Emily in Paris. From the French Alps to the piazzas of Rome, viewers will vicariously experience amazing new locations through Emily’s eyes. Expect new characters, a lot more drama, romance, and a whole new language to try and master.”

As you can see in the new photos, this season introduces another new element to Emily’s Paris — namely, winter. Executive producer and director Andrew Fleming tells Tudum, “We’re getting a different textural feel of Paris. It was fun to think about the city in a different way for scenes that are more dramatically oriented, and to see Paris not all sunny and flowery but to see it a little gray and cozier and people in coats and dark skies. It’s just as beautiful during the winter, if not more so.”

Naturally, that includes lots of new layers, both sartorially and culturally. “Emily is really coming into her own, asserting herself, becoming much stronger with a style that is reinterpreting Parisian fashion codes,” costume designer Marylin Fitoussi tells Tudum. “And our motto was obviously to have fun, but to take maximum risks.”

Emily in Paris Season 3 ended on a très dramatic note — with American in Paris Emily Cooper (Lily Collins) learning that her on-and-off flirt buddy/neighbor/chef Gabriel(Lucas Bravo) is expecting a baby with his on-and-off girlfriend Camille(Camille Razat) Thankfully, we’ve gotten new intel about what’s in store for the comedy’s upcoming fourth season, including some new cast members.

When does Emily in Paris Season 4 premiere?

As announced by Collins and the cast in a video above, the first batch of five episodes will debut Aug. 15, and the second half of the season will follow on Sept. 12.

Who’s in the cast of Emily in Paris Season 4? 

Lily Collins stars as Emily Cooper, Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu as Sylvie Grateau, Ashley Park as Mindy Chen, Bravo as Gabriel, Razat as Camille, Samuel Arnold as Julien, Bruno Gouery as Luc, William Abadie as Antoine Lambert, and Lucien Laviscount as Alfie.

Season 4’s guest-stars include:

• Eugenio Franceschini as Marcello. Originally from Rome, Marcello is direct, confident, and values simplicity. He’s substantive but never flashy — true to the roots of his family’s company.
• Thalia Besson as Genevieve, Laurent’s twentysomething daughter from a past relationship who’s just moved from New York City to Paris to start her career. Her bright and eager demeanor immediately endears her to Emily, who’s thrilled to have an American expat to mentor. But their similarities may end up complicating Emily’s life both professionally and personally.
• Rupert Everett as Giorgio Barbieri, the owner of a global interior design firm based in Rome. Giorgio makes it his business to know everyone else’s business, and to be the life of every party. He’s been friends with Sylvie for decades.
• Anna Galiena as Antonia Muratori, Marcello’s mother, the matriarch of the Muratori family and the head of the family business. Antonia presides over their small village by building up the community and taking care of the people who live and work there. Even in uncertain times, Antonia is committed to maintaining the company’s soul.
• Raoul Bova as Giancarlo, a charming, self-assured, and successful Roman commercial director who used to be Sylvie’s film professor.
