Fans believe this could be the love interest for Benedict, played by Luke Thompson, indicating his season could be next. The casting call, according to Collider, is looking for an East Asian female between the ages of 24-30 years old. The role says it will involved nudity, which is a big hint that “Emily” could be a romantic lead this season.

The casting call also calls the character “plucky, endlessly resourceful, and having trouble trusting others.” In the books, Benedict ends up marrying a woman named Sophie, so fans are wondering if “Emily” could be a codename.

Season four’s lead has not been confirmed at this time, but fans of the book series believe it will be Benedict’s year, as his character meets Sophie at the family’s masquerade party, which is mentioned in the season three finale.

There’s no confirmation on this yet, so we’ll have to wait and see!
