Main couple, casting, intrigues… The first information

It is one of Netflix’s most popular series, so popular that its first two seasons are ranked in the top most viewed series of all time on the streaming platform. We are obviously talking about The Bridgerton Chronicles whose season 3 – or at least the first four episodes – has just been released on Netflix. After Simon and Daphne, then Anthony and Kate, fans were able to discover the beginning of the story of Colin and Penelope, played by Luke Newton and Nicola Coughlan. If this new salvo has divided the editorial staff of Tele-Leisurehowever, there is nothing to worry about for the future of the series: The Bridgerton Chronicles is already renewed for a season 4! Here’s what we already know about the rest of the Netflix series.

Release date: when is season 4 released? The Bridgerton Chronicles streaming on Netflix?

For the moment, it is difficult to know when season 4 of The Bridgerton Chronicles. If we had to wait a little over a year between season 1 and season 2, the wait was much longer between the second and third seasons. In any case, it seems unlikely that the next episodes will be released in 2025, unless the series returns towards the end of the year. We therefore imagine that fiction could do its big comeback in 2026 on Netflix. But this obviously remains to be confirmed!

Intrigues: what will season 4 of The Bridgerton Chronicles ?

Every season of The Bridgerton Chronicles is dedicated to a novel in the saga written by Julia Quinn. Three of the eight books have therefore already been adapted for the screen. For the moment, Netflix and the series have not confirmed which member of the Bridgerton family will be in the spotlight, but several possibilities are available to the production.

Which couple will be at the center of season 4 of The Bridgerton Chronicles ? The different theories

First possibility: season 4 of Bridgerton could be focused on Benedict. The character was skipped for the third salvo, since the third book is dedicated to him. Jess Brownell, the showrunner of the series, spoke about this in an interview for Entertainment Weekly. “Benedict is such a funny character, a fan favorite and we’re excited to have fun with him for a little longer before he settles down“, she confided. In part 1 of season 3 of Bridgerton, Benedict meets Tilley Arnold, who does not leave him indifferent. In the novels, the character ends up in a relationship with Sophie, who is a servant of his mother. But will the series really follow the story of the books or will it offer a queer storyline for the character, as some fans are demanding? Asked by Tele-Leisurethe showrunner confided on this subject: “I can’t talk specifically about Benedict because I don’t want to spoil anything. But it’s a series that talks about love, in all its forms. So it makes sense to explore homosexuality. I want to see positive representation of the queer community on screen. It remains to be seen how this will be seen in future seasons.“.

Second possibility? This season 4 could focus on the love story ofEloise. The second sister of the siblings seems to have changed her mind a little about her place in society in the third season of Bridgerton. And, after two seasons about male family characters, it wouldn’t be illogical to see one of the sisters be the focus of the series. Fans of the novels know that Eloïse’s future husband has already appeared in the series. This is Sir Philip Crane, Marina’s husband. It remains to be seen whether he will be back for the rest of season 3, which would allow us to tease a sequel on Eloise. Actress Claudia Jessie also said she would like to include a queer story centered around her character.

Third idea for the central couple, that of Francescawho is the heroine of the sixth novel. The character has gained importance in this season 3 and it does not seem totally impossible that she finds herself at the center of the action. This is still the least likely theory, but you never know…

The couple from season 4 of Bridgerton is already chosen

If we do not yet know which couple this season 4 will focus on, the team of the series is already aware. And for good reason : the writers are in the middle of writing the episodes. On the red carpet of the season 3 premiere, Jess Brownell confirmed that the fourth season is already well underway. Julia Quinn also said that she knows who the sequel will focus on, but that she couldn’t reveal anything at the moment.

Colin and Penelope, Kate and Anthony… Will the old couples be back?

The specificity of Bridgerton is that each season centers on a couple, the heroes of previous seasons therefore play a less important role in the sequel. Good news if you liked seasons 2 and 3: Jonathan Bailey, Simone Ashley, Luke Newton and Nicola Coughlan have already expressed their desire to return for the rest of the Netflix series. The interpreter of Anthony has already declared that he was ready to stay a long time in the series, in order to support his partners on screen. Even before the release of season 3, Nicola Coughlan told The Wrap thatshe and Luke Newton would also be there. “They told us we would be coming back for season 4 which is great. It will be exciting“, assured the actress.

Can Phoebe Dynevor (Daphne) return in season 4 of Bridgerton ?

Don’t expect to find Simon, Duke of Hastings, though. Regé-Jean Page has explained several times that he does not want to reprise his role. If Phoebe Dynevor was absent from season 3, the actress is not closing the door on a return. “If there was a good reason for me to go back, then maybe“, she declared to The Standard.
