The Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil, and Vile actress has signed on to star in a new series from Sex and the City creator Darren Star, which will see her head to Paris.

As the title suggests, Emily in Paris will follow a a woman in her twenties from the Midwest who arrives in the French capital for work. The show will focus on culture clashes as Emily attempts to fit in among her European colleagues, as well as her new social network and love life.

“To be not only starring in a TV show created by Darren, but also producing it with him and the Paramount Network, is a real ‘pinch me’ moment,” said the 30-year-old actress.

“All of Darren’s shows have deeply defined, greatly impacted, and undeniably helped me navigate my journey into womanhood. I couldn’t imagine a more inspiring city to be our Emily in Paris home than Paris. What an absolute dream project!”

Ten episodes have been ordered for the half-hour series which is set to begin production later this year.

Ooh, la, la!

Some of the biggest stars in the British film industry have come together to be, well, miserable.

BBC has released the latest trailer for its television adaptation of Victor Hugo’s novel, Les Misérables, which was most recently brought to the big screen by Tom Hooper and starred Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway, and Amanda Seyfried.

The 19th-century series features Dominic West as Jean Valjean, David Oyelowo as Inspector Javert, Lily Collins as Fantine, and Adeel Akhtar and Olivia Colman as Monsieur and Madame Thénardier.

The production will not be a musical like the film version but will include many tense moments as it depicts the civil unrest in France at the time.

Both West and Oyelowo will serve as executive directors, while Tom Shankland is directing.
