One of the advantages of becoming Netflix's most-watched English-language series with the first season is that, instead of receiving a simple renewal, you make sure to shoot a third and a fourth season when you're still producing the second. And, while the public is still recovering from the a priori impossible romance between Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey) and a Kate Sharma (Simone Ashley) convinced that she would be a spinster with pride, it is time to look to the future. What does the third season hold for The Bridgertons ?
If we pay attention to the logic used so far, Chris Van Dusen's series will adapt the third installment of Julia Quinn's literary saga, I give you my heart (An offer from a Gentleman), which focuses on the love adventures of Benedict (Luke Thompson), the bohemian brother of the viscount. And the love story has a very clear reference: the tale of Cinderella.
Julia Quinn's third book, which has to be adapted in the third season, is inspired by the tale of Cinderella
"As in the tale of Cinderella, Sophie sees one night her dream come true. Behind her stepmother's back, she dresses like a queen and attends london's most important masquerade ball. What's more, it manages to capture the attention of Benedict Bridgerton, the most attractive and charming bachelor of the meeting, "says the official synopsis of the novel. But, of course, she is actually "a simple maid, unable to reveal the truth to him."
At the moment, it is unknown the actress who will play Sophie, the young woman who will bewitch Benedict, who has her own existential crisis by having an artistic spirit that does not fit too much with the conservative mentality of the time and her position in the aristocracy of the Regency. In addition, this will not be the only plot since executive producer Shonda Rhimes has already warned that the third season will not follow the book to the letter, according to TVLine, and that there will be more love stories in the eight episodes.
Claudia Jessie and Calam Lynch have caught the audience as Eloise and Theo in the second season.
What does this mean? That key romantic plots such as that of Eloise (Claudia Jessie) with Theo (Calam Lynch), the young man who works in the printing press and with whom he saw himself hidden in what ended up being a social scandal, could be recovered, and that the simmering relationship between Penelope Featherington (Nicole Coughlin) and Colin (Luke Newton) could be resumed, which in theory should be the main course of the fourth season.
The Bridgertons' creative team is still working on the scripts for the new season with Jess Brownell as the new showrunner, after Chris Van Dusen gave him the reins of the series to focus on new projects. She is a screenwriter and producer with an extensive curriculum under the orders of Shonda Rhimes, having worked on Grey's Anatomy, No Appointment, Scandal, Who is Anna?, in addition to The Bridgertons where she participated in the writers' room of the first season and collaborated in two episodes of the second as a producer.
Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) should be the lead actor of the fourth season.
Regarding the role of Jonathan Bailey and Simone Ashley, both have confirmed that they will be in the next season and with a prominent role.
