    Lucas Bravo isn't sure if he'll return for season five of 'Emily in Paris'

    The 36-year-old actor - who plays the part of Gabriel on the hit Netflix show - feels as though he's recently grown apart from his on-screen character


    He told IndieWire: "The 'sexy chef' was very much part of me in season one and we grew apart season after season because of the choices he makes and because of the direction they make him take. I've never been so far away from him.

    "In season one, there was a lot of me in him. But as they made him kind of unaware of his surroundings, of the dynamic, always victimising and always being completely lost in translation and oblivious to anything that is happening around him and being manipulated by everyone, it kind of became not fun for me to shoot or to see a character I love so much and brought me so much, being slowly turned into guacamole. I really grew apart from him."

    Lucas stars on the show alongside the likes of Lily Collins, Ashley Park and Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu. But the actor has confessed to feeling frustrated by the lack of freedom he's been afforded.

    Lucas shared: "I tried for seasons to bring nuances but we don't have much liberty on set. We cannot change a word or an emotion. They know what they want and we just have to comply.

    "It makes me question if I want to be part of season five [...] because my contract ends at season four.

    "I really want to see if Gabriel gets back to his fun, cheeky, playful, alive self. Because three seasons playing melancholic, sad, depressed, and lost is not fun anymore. It's a comedy, everybody is having fun around me, everybody is jumping around, and I'm just slowly sinking into god knows what."
