“The idea of the cameo came to us when [series creator] Darren Star and I met [Macron] at [her and her husband Emmanuel’s official residence] Elysee Palace in December 2022,” the show’s star, Lily Collins, says.
“She is a big fan of the show and took the mention of her in season 1 with great humour. This scene in season 4 is a wink, and shooting with her was both an honour and a real joy.”
