Lucas Bravo, the actor who plays Gabriel on the popular Netflix show Emily in Paris, recently shared his thoughts on the direction his character has taken. While the show has been a guilty pleasure for many viewers, Bravo admitted that he is not a fan of what has happened to his character.
In the show, Gabriel is Emily Cooper's charming French neighbor who introduces her to French cuisine and helps her navigate through some work-related challenges. His character was instantly likable as a supportive and handsome chef, and he didn't need a last name or a complex storyline to capture viewers' hearts.
However, after portraying Gabriel since 2020, the 36-year-old actor has grown apart from his character. In an interview with IndieWire, Bravo revealed that he may not return for future seasons because he no longer feels connected to Gabriel. He explained that the choices and direction that the writers have taken with his character have caused him to lose the connection he once had.
Bravo also expressed his disappointment in the way his character has been portrayed, saying that he now sees Gabriel as oblivious and a victim, constantly being manipulated by others. He shared that he had a lot of fun playing Gabriel in the first season when there was more of himself in the character. But as the writers continued to make him unaware of his surroundings and lost in translation, it became less enjoyable for him.
Despite his efforts to bring nuances to his character, Bravo revealed that he had limited freedom on set and couldn't change anything about his character's emotions or dialogue. He added that his contract ends after season four, and he is unsure if he wants to return for season five, as he hopes to see Gabriel return to his lively and playful self.
In a previous interview, Bravo had also expressed his confusion and discomfort with his character's development. He shared that while he is just an actor and follows the writers' plans, he doesn't understand Gabriel's current storyline.
Emily in Paris fans have adored Gabriel's character, but it seems that the actor who plays him is not as pleased. Bravo's contract ends after the fourth season, which was released in September 2024, and he is currently uncertain about his return for season five. Fans will have to wait and see what happens next for Gabriel and if Bravo will continue to portray him on the show.
