Only a little over a month after Season 3 of Netflix’s Bridgerton came to a close, viewers are already clamoring for more of the Shondaland period romance series based on Julia Quinn’s novels. The latest season of the television adaptation was split into two parts as Netflix does with some of its tentpole titles.
The show boasts multiple entries on Netflix’s most Popular English-Language Series List, a title only the Regency-era set series holds at the moment. It was also renewed for two more seasons in April 2021 before Season 2 even arrived. At this news, executive producer Shonda Rhimes said, “We look forward to bringing more of this beloved universe to screens for years to come.”For all the details so far divulged about Season 4 of Bridgerton, scroll on, gentle readers.
Does Bridgerton Season 4 have a release date?
Not yet. With the third season’s release in June 2024, viewers will have to practice patience for the next installment of the show.
Whose love story will Bridgerton Season 4 tell?
Move over, #Polin, it’s time for #Benophie. Benedict Bridgerton (Luke Thompson) will take center stage in Season 4, as was hinted at in the teasing of Violet Bridgerton’s (Ruth Gemmel) Masquerade Ball that awaits the eight Bridgerton children.
Who will play Sophie in Bridgerton Season 4?
Sophie’s actress has not yet been revealed.
Will Francesca’s story continue in Bridgerton Season 4?
While not exactly clear if it will take place interwoven with Benedict’s story like it did with Colin and Penelope’s, Francesca’s love story will continue with plans from showrunner Jess Brownell. The sixth Bridgerton child, who was recast from Ruby Stokes to Hannah Dodd for Season 3, has a tragic first love story in When He Was Wicked, but a big twist at the end of Season 3 revealed gender-bending changes afoot for the character.
Instead of meeting her husband John Stirling’s (Victor Alli) male cousin Michael, who grows to covet Francesca in the book, at the end of Season 3, the more reserved Bridgerton sibling makes the acquaintance of Michaela Stirling (Masali Baduza), and if Francesca’s star-struck, tongue-tied nature means anything, it’s that she could be headed for a “queer happily-ever-after” in Brownell’s words.
With the announcement of Benedict’s stepping into the spotlight for Season 4, a teaser video of his getting a suit tailored specifically for the Masquerade Ball was released.
Will Colin and Penelope be back for Season 4?
Nicola Coughlan told TheWrap that the pair will reprise their roles in Season 4.
What about Kate and Anthony?
Jonathan Bailey’s charming Viscount Bridgerton suggested that he and his pregnant wife Kate Sharma (Simone Ashley) visit her home in India to prepare for the birth of their child and introduce the baby to family and heritage there. Ashley said at the Monte-Carlo Television Festival in Monaco in June 2024 that she and Bailey will do all they can to make their schedules work so that they can reprise their characters in the show, according to People.
