The anticipation among fans has been palpable since the conclusion of Colin and Penelope’s storyline in season 3.


The central love story of Bridgerton season 4 has finally been announced by Netflix. 

After Colin and Penelope’s romantic storyline ended in season 3, fans have been eagerly wondering which Bridgerton brother will be the focus of the next installment.

Now, Netflix has announced that the upcoming fourth season of “Bridgerton” will center around Benedict, the second son, portrayed by Luke Thompson.

In a recent video, the streamer announced some news featuring Benedict, interspersed with relevant clips. The video concluded with Thompson getting ready for a masquerade ball scene.

In the third book of Bridgerton series, titled “An Offer from a Gentleman,” Benedict takes center stage. Fans had anticipated that this story would be the basis for season 3.

Instead, showcasing an unexpected turn of events, season 3 of Bridgerton deviated from the sequence of the source novels. Rather than Benedict’s love story unfolding as in the third book, “An Offer From a Gentleman,” it was Colin’s romance that took center stage in episode after episode, aligning with the events of the fourth novel, “Romancing Mr. Bridgerton.”

Now, fans are eagerly waiting for the forthcoming fourth season to unveil Benedict’s romantic tale with Sophie Becket, as hinted in the enticing previews. According to Netflix’s initial synopsis, it seems that this storyline will largely follow the original source material.

Although his older and younger brothers are content with their married lives, Benedict remains reluctant to commit – that is, until he encounters an alluring Lady in Silver at his mother’s masked ball.

Though Benedict Bridgerton watches as his older and younger brothers find happiness with matrimony, he remains reluctant to join their ranks – that is, until he encounters an alluring Lady in Silk at his mother’s masked ball.

Previously, Thompson has been reluctant to reveal which Bridgerton brother will be the focus of season 4.

During an interview on The View, someone inquired if Benedict’s love story could be the next topic. In response, Thompson playfully quipped, “What an intrusive question you’ve posed to me!”

He remarked, “I’m not certain, but I do know that I greatly enjoy the aspect of a TV role. The ability to delve deeply into a character over an extended period and subtly develop him is truly rewarding for me. Consequently, as long as I continue to have such opportunities.”

Netflix now offers you the chance to watch Bridgerton season 3 right away. Previously released seasons 1 and 2 are also accessible for streaming on Netflix. Alternatively, you can purchase the entire Bridgerton book collection from Amazon.
