Actor Malcolm McDowell admitted that he does not like his daughter-in-law Lily Collins’ Netflix show, ‘Emily in Paris’. The 82-year-old actor shared his honest opinion about Lily’s hit show while speaking to People magazine on Saturday, August 23.
“To be honest with you, it’s not my kind of thing, and Lily knows that,” Malcolm said. “But I’m the biggest fan of my daughter-in-law. I think she’s absolutely one of the great actresses,” he added.
Later in the interview, the ‘Gangster No. 1’ alum praised his daughter-in-law’s on-screen presence. “As far as I’m concerned, when she’s on the screen, there’s nobody else on it, because she’s not only a good actress, but she has a beautiful quality. I suppose, it’s a sort of charisma,” Malcolm said.
For those unfamiliar, Lily tied the knot with Malcolm’s son, director Charlie McDowell, on September 4, 2021. The couple welcomed their first children via surrogate in January. Lily is currently busy filming the fifth installment of ‘Emily in Paris’. The upcoming season is scheduled to premiere on Netflix on December 18, 2025. Recently, the series’ cast suffered a tragedy when assistant director Diego Borella passed away after collapsing on set from a heart attack.
