"I did a scene in the latest season, and they told me, 'Next year we'll speak,'" he said at the film fest. "I waited for them to call me - but ultimately, it never came, and they just fired me." _ While Rupert Everett seemed disappointed by the news, he explained that it comes with the territory of navigating the entertainment industry. "Show business is always very difficult, from the beginning to the end. When they write the screenplay, they think they want you - but then things change, and they lose your character," he said. "I don't know why. ... For me, it was a tragedy. I was in bed for two weeks because I couldn't get over it." _ Emily in Paris creator Darren Star confirmed that Lily Collins' Emily will spend the fifth season in Italy. "Emily's going to have a presence in Rome," Star revealed in a press release. "It doesn't mean she's not going to be in Paris, but she's going to have a presence in Rome."
