Since the conclusion of Bridgerton Season 3 a little over a month ago, the series has continued to captivate audiences worldwide. As of July 3, the third season has garnered an impressive 91.9 million views, solidifying its place as the 10th biggest English-language series ever. Season 3 centered around Colin Bridgerton's realization of his feelings for Penelope Featherington, delivering memorable scenes such as the carriage and mirror moments, as well as the reveal of Lady Whistledown to the Ton.
With the announcement of Bridgerton's renewal for Season 4 prior to the third season's premiere, fans eagerly awaited news on the next Bridgerton sibling to take the spotlight. Speculation pointed towards Benedict Bridgerton, Eloise Bridgerton, or Francesca Bridgerton. Netflix has now confirmed that Season 4 will indeed focus on Benedict Bridgerton, a decision that aligns with the sequence of Julia Quinn's book series.
The upcoming season will draw inspiration from Quinn's book, 'An Offer from a Gentleman,' which mirrors the Cinderella tale within the Bridgerton universe. Benedict's journey unfolds as he seeks the mysterious woman he encountered at a masquerade ball. The logline for Season 4 teases Benedict's reluctance to settle down until he meets a captivating Lady in Silver at his mother's masquerade ball.
Production for Season 4 is set to commence in the fall, with showrunner Jess Brownell hinting at a potential two-year wait until the season premieres on Netflix. While fan casting for the character of Sophie Beckett, Benedict's love interest, has been circulating online, no official announcements have been made yet. The anticipation for the casting news remains high among fans, with various suggestions being put forth.
For those eager to delve into Benedict's love story ahead of the season release, Quinn's 'An Offer from a Gentleman' offers a glimpse into the upcoming narrative. As the Bridgerton saga continues to unfold, the excitement surrounding Season 4 and Benedict's romantic journey is palpable among viewers worldwide.
