Lucas Bravo compares Emily in Paris character Gabriel to 'guacamole'

Lucas has revealed his real thoughts on the character in the last few weeks, with the star saying he feels like Gabriel has been "slowing turned into guacamole".

"In season 1, there was a lot of me in him. But as they made him kind of unaware of his surroundings, of the dynamic, always victimizing 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," he told IndieWire.

"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."

He added, "It makes me question if I want to be part of season 5 — because my contract ends at season 4. 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."

He has also spoke about the potential to appear in season five with Le Figaro, saying, "It will depend on the script because I think I've covered everything a bit. I don't really have any freedom and, as I'm starting to be given some elsewhere, I'm getting a taste for it. Life is short. The filming of this series lasts five months. Do I want to sacrifice them to tell something that doesn't stimulate me?"

"I don't want to be part of a cog that tends not to consider the intelligence of the spectators."
