With the season over, enthusiasts are already excited to find out what the third season of Bridgerton will bring.
Fans had to wait two years to learn about Colin and Penelope’s love story. While old-fashioned romance is certainly one of the most productive binge-watching showcases on Netflix (and, indeed, one of the most productive showcases you can get with a Netflix subscription), it takes a while for seasons to be successful on our TV screens. And unfortunately, season four moves in that direction as well.
But aside from the fact that we’ll have to wait a bit until next season, what else do we know about Bridgerton season 4? Get ready to sip your hot tea and sit down for Lady Whistledown’s newspapers, as there is already plenty of data available.
At the time of the update, in July 2024, there is no release date set for Bridgerton season four, which is not a surprise. The third season was part of our 202four TV premiere schedule, so it’s not like the fourth season would have been released this year even if it had been made.
However, we do have at least an estimate from Jess Brownell herself, the showrunner. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter in June 2024, he showed that there would be “at least” a two-year wait:
We’re racing to watch the seasons faster, but it takes 8 months to shoot them, then you have to edit them and then dub them in all languages. And writing is also time-consuming, so we’re at a two-year pace, check that the output accelerates, but somewhere in that range.
While Brownell says they’re looking to “speed things up,” a wait of about two years turns out to be quite popular for Bridgerton. The second season was released about a year and 4 months after the first, and the third was obviously released later. that two years later. This high likely means we likely won’t get another season of Bridgerton until at least 2026.
While the cast of Bridgerton has replaced and grown over the past 3 seasons, we can expect to see plenty of characters for Bridgerton season 4, including:
We may see many others as well, but when it comes to major plot points, the above characters would probably have the best chance of appearing in some capacity. Of course, there are also other characters in the Bridgerton season 3 finale who had open-ended conclusions, like Cressida (and all of her gorgeous dresses from season 3) and Michaela Sterling, who could appear in season 3. 4.
However, since nothing has been shown yet, we will have to wait and see.
I know, we’ve all been waiting for this, but thankfully, we now know that the fourth season of Bridgerton will be limited to Benedict Bridgerton, as shown via Netflix Tudum in July 2024.
I fully supported Benedict and his adventures in Season 3, and from the three lines of Bridgerton’s Season 3 finale, it was clear that he was going to end up being a major component of Season 4, and now Array is officially confirmed.
Tudum also posted a brief summary of what we can expect from the upcoming season, saying that Benedict would be the center of attention and that season four would be spent with him looking to track down the “Silver Lady. ” he blindfolded her. her mother’s masquerade ball, which is clearly what happened in the books.
Although I enjoyed the “quirk” of Colin and Penelope, I’m already looking forward to seeing Benedict’s story, as the user who has enjoyed it since day one of this franchise.
We also know from this article through Tudum that the fourth season will be like season 3 and will have 8 episodes, so get ready to crave and crave this series for the next two years and then get it back. 8 episodes.
Yes, I’m crying, don’t judge me.
If we know that Benedict will be the protagonist of season 4, we also know that Bridgerton tends to offer us other stories while the B plots in the middle of all the torrid romances. And one of the most important things we could see is Francesca’s story with John Stirling and her cousin Michaela.
Now, don’t get the idea that two love stories are going to develop in the same season between brothers. Showrunner Jess Brownell showed in another interview with Variety in June 2024 that they would not combine love stories, so the season will be limited to a single Bridgerton love story.
However, Brownell revealed that there is a “big twist” that book enthusiasts know audiences don’t know about, in an interview with The Wrap in June 2024, that will soon take place in Francesca’s story:
Book enthusiasts know where we’re going with this story. This is a difficult question to address, because there is a pivotal turning point in Francesca’s e-book, and if other people Google it, they will know what is to come. We plan to stick pretty closely to Francesca’s e-book; Aside from the genre change, there are some elements of the ebook that will want to be changed. But we actually found that we were able to adapt the e-book precisely, so that other people can expect it to play out the same way.
Francesca ended up becoming a fan favorite in season 3 of the show, so I’m looking forward to seeing more of her story, as much as possible.
In today’s even more teasing Jess Brownell episode, the Bridgerton showrunner revealed in this interview with The Hollywood Reporter that writing is in progress, starting in June 2024, and that she believes the fourth season will involve “some of his work” to date. . :
I’ve almost made a mistake several times, so keep asking and maybe I’ll make a mistake. I’m excited about what we’re writing. We’re nearing the end of the writing room season, with the scripts. And I feel like it’s one of my most productive paintings and the most productive painting in my writer’s room. We’ve just solidified our collaboration and we’re shooting at full speed, so I can’t wait for enthusiasts to see what we’ve got.
So who’s with me to be dying to know what’s going on?
The last thing we know about season four is that while Benedict will be the new protagonist among all of Bridgerton’s fantastic characters, Penelope’s reveal at the end of season three will be a story point for the upcoming season. Brownell revealed in this interview with The Wrap that in season four we will also see Penelope start becoming a public “gossip columnist” now that she has revealed who Lady Whistledown is:
As we talked about where we were looking to end Penelope in the writers’ room, we felt that, in a season where she’s discovering the importance of her power, her leaving Chronicle felt like a negative grade. I think there’s more to come with Lady Whistledown: I think Pen will now have to understand what it means to be a public gossip columnist, not only in dealing with the other people she writes about, but also in taking steps to be more guilty in what she writes. Array Responsibility and authenticity are two things she’s had to deal with this season, and we’ll continue that thread in season 4.
I’ve been waiting for his secret since the first season of Bridgerton, so sign me up for season 4.
While Bridgerton’s fourth season is probably years away, I know that when it arrives, we’ll all stand back and watch it like the smart little socialites we are, and until then, I guess I’ll live with them. Other Bridgerton novels that captivated me.

Not only did I like the jackpot, but the end credits series is one of the funniest things I’ve noticed all year.
A wonderful cable screen is still coming to Netflix, and I hope it gets the proper treatment.
The director of Despicable Me 4 offers a simple answer as to whether Minions will ever be adapted into real-life action, and I couldn’t agree more.
