Will there be a Season 4 of Bridgerton?
Yes, Bridgerton will have a Season 4! The show is very popular on Netflix. Even before Season 3 Part 2 was released, Netflix had already decided to make Season 4. This occurred in April 2021, while Season 2 was still in the works. Netflix usually doesn't announce two seasons at the same time, but they did this because Bridgerton has been very successful.
Many people are very happy to watch Season 3 Part 2, which was released after a month of anticipation. The story of Colin and Penelope is being finished, and it looks like this season may be the most-watched one so far. It's being watched by a lot of people, like the show Stranger Things. Bridgerton fans can expect more drama and romance in Season 4 as the show continues to follow the lives of the Bridgerton family in high society.
Who Will Season 4 of Bridgerton Be About?
It is probable that the focus of Season 4 of Bridgerton will be on Benedict's story. Even though it hasn't been confirmed, everything suggests that Benedict, portrayed by Luke Thompson, will be the focus in the next season. During the last episode, Eloise Bridgerton (portrayed by Claudia Jessie) has a conversation with Benedict before she goes to Scotland. She says she will only be away until next year, suggesting things that will happen later.
Benedict, who doesn't want to commit, answers by talking about going in disguise at a party and avoiding meeting women who are potential partners. This moment is a reference to Benedict's story in the book "An Offer From a Gentleman," which is part of Julia Quinn's "Bridgerton" series. Benedict meets Sophie Beckett at a fancy dress party in this book.
Benedict is unaware that Sophie is really working as a servant for a mean stepmother named Araminta Gunningworth. At the end of the story, Benedict and Sophie admit their love for each other and decide to get married. Brownell talked to Deadline and said that Benedict will keep exploring his flexibility, but didn't mention when he might meet his future wife.
"I can't say just yet when Sophie will appear, but more details are coming soon," she said.
Bridgerton Season 4 Release Date
The release date for Bridgerton Season 4 hasn't been announced yet, but fans might have to wait for about two years before it is released. The show's creator Jess Brownell said it's hard to make the time between seasons shorter, so the next season might come out every two years.
Looking back at the past seasons:
- Season 1 was released on December 25, 2020.
- Season 2 came out on March 25, 2022.
- Season 3 first aired on May 16, 2024.
The time between Season 1 and Season 2 was under two years. Now that things are getting busier, it looks like waiting two years could become the norm. Nowadays, it's normal for shows on streaming platforms to be big and detailed, but it's frustrating that they are taking longer to release.
Is Bridgerton Over?
Bridgerton isn't finished. The show will keep going and there will be more seasons for the fans to enjoy in the future. Just recently, Season 3 Part 2 became available on Netflix, finishing up the storyline about Colin and Penelope. Initial indications show that it's extremely popular, and Season 4 is already being planned. So, there are more episodes and new stories coming up for fans of Bridgerton to enjoy.
