Who Is Alfie In 'Emily In Paris?' All About Lucien Laviscount—And Where You've Seen Him Before
Try to contain your thirst.
Remember how everyone got all hot and bothered over Regé-Jean Page after the first season of Bridgerton? Well, now that Season 3 of Emily In Paris has dropped, everyone is once again lusting over another English heartthrob, Lucien Laviscount. Get to know Emily In Paris' Alfie and why we all love him! (Warning: Some mild Emily in Paris spoilers ahead!)
Who does Lucien Laviscount play in Emily in Paris?
Laviscount stars as Alfie in Season 2 and Season 3 of Emily in Paris. Emily meets Alfie in her French language classic Season 2. Alfie is a banker from London who doesn't seem thrilled about having to relocate to the City of Light.
"How would I describe Alfie? I'd say he is all for the moment, lives in a sheltered world that he's created for himself, that has little peepholes out of it," Laviscount told Women's Wear Daily. "And I think Emily makes some peepholes open up."
Laviscount revealed that when Darren Star expressed interest in having him on the series, he basically got to work immediately.
"It was May the 6th, from what I remember, I was in New York, sitting in my apartment, working on some different material. My manager calls and she was like, 'Stop everything you're doing, Darren Star wants to see you read,'" he recalled. "And I was, like, 'What? Hold on? Darren Star? We're talking thee Darren Star?'... I don't think I've ever done an audition so quickly in my life. I'd seen the show and there's one thing that Darren has, which is so incredible with his writing team and everyone around him: They have this back and forth dialogue which is incredible. And it's very fast. So when I got the sides for the audition, for the tape for him, I was so nervous, I was just, like, 'I need to nail it.' I wanted to do the writing justice."
