*Spoilers for Emily in Paris ahead.*
Lily Collins has confirmed she'd be up for a second season of Emily In Paris - so, Netflix, what are you waiting for?!
The actress, who plays lead Emily Cooper in the smash-hit show, pretty much confirmed a second instalment was on the cards by committing her involvement.
She told Vanity Fair: "I would love nothing more than to be able to go back to Paris and do [a new season].
"There were so many situations that we were like, 'Okay, write that down. That's going to happen in season two.
"Also, there were many experiences where we were like, 'Does Emily go abroad? Do you think Emily takes the Eurostar and hops out and goes to Belgium or she goes to London?' That would be so much fun."
Actress Lily added that there were also so many supporting characters the show could "explore" and "roads to follow".
One such character is that of Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu, who plays Emily's boss, who, Lily tells the magazine, the show has "just scratched the surface" of.
For those who haven't watched it yet, Emily in Paris follows Emily Cooper (Collins), a young marketing exec from Chicago who moves the French capital for an exciting job opportunity when her company acquires a French luxury marketing firm.

Confronted with the bright lights of the city and all its sparkling, romantic splendour, the 20-something (who doesn't speak a word of French) faces a culture clash and has to learn to adapt to her new life - and fast.
Tasked with revamping the company's social media strategy, Emily struggles to prove herself at work, all while dealing with the complicated issue of a love triangle involving her new friend Camille and hunky French chef (and her neighbour), Gabriel.
While Netflix is yet to confirm a sequel, Lily isn't the only person who's pretty committed to ensuring it happens.
In fact, speaking to Oprah Magazine, Darren Star - who wrote the series, and is also behind hit HBO show Sex and the City - revealed that his team are already making plans for possible season 2 storylines.
"In season 2, she's going to be more of a part of the fabric of the world she's living in. She'll be more of a resident of the city.
"She'll have her feet on the ground a little more. She's making a life there."
Star - who also penned 90210 - went on to address the major cliffhanger that season 1 ended on while speaking to TV Line.
With Gabriel and Camille's relationship on the cusp of a breakup after the chef decides to move to Normandy to open a restaurant, Emily and Gabriel spend his final night in the city together.
It's only the next day that Gabriel reveals he is staying after winning investment - which is good news for Emily, but makes things all the more complicated with the issue of the love triangle. Will Gabriel and Camille stay together now? What does it mean for Emily's relationship with the chef? And her friendship with Camille?
While Star didn't give to much away, he told the outlet: "Nothing is sort of exactly as it seems to [Emily] and I think a lot of her ideas about life are constantly tested. And they will be next season, as well."
So, Darren's making plans; Lily's raring to go... you know what to do Netflix.
