Genevieve, the rival of the main character of the movie “Emily in Paris”: what is known about the actress who played the role

In the fourth season of Emily in Paris, a new heroine appeared – Sylvie’s stepdaughter named Genevieve. The girl flew from New York to Paris to get a job at the Grato agency. She manages to make friends with Emily. However, throughout the season she does not reveal her best sides. Genevieve wants to “catch” as much as possible everything that Cooper loves, up to her lover, Chief Gabriel.

The actress got into the role so convincingly that it attracted the attention of the audience. It turned out that 23-year-old Talia Besson, the eldest daughter of the famous director Luc Besson and producer Virginie Besson-Silla, reincarnated as Genevieve. She has a sister named Satine, a brother named Mao and half-sisters Juliette and Shanna.

Talia was not immediately interested in film. She studied fashion and design in Paris, then moved to New York, where she took drama classes. She made her acting debut in a small role in her father’s film Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets.

Later, the girl starred in the film “Arthur’s Curse” – the fourth part of Luc Besson’s cult epic “Arthur and the Minimoys”. Talia also appeared in the thriller “Surviving” as Tabitha. In front of the aspiring star, shooting is taking place in the horror film “Triton”.

Talia is also trying her hand at directing. She said on her personal blog that she has already shot two films. “That’s it, I have finished directing my second film. Thank you to my wonderful team of best friends for believing in the absurdity of this project,” Besson shared in July of this year.

Let’s remember that in the fourth season of the series, 33-year-old Eugenio Franceschini joined the cast, playing the role of Emily’s new lover. We have already told what is known about the actor. By the way, it is for his own good that the main character moves to Italy, where the action of the fifth season of the project will unfold.
