Cameras are ready to follow Regency London’s most eligible bachelors! The filming of the fourth season of Netflix’s beloved historical romance series ‘Bridgerton’ will start in London, England, in September and conclude in April 2025. Jess Brownell remains the showrunner of this television adaptation of Julia Quinn’s book series of the same name.
The fourth season will adapt the third ‘Bridgerton’ novel, ‘An Offer From a Gentleman,’ which focuses on Benedict Bridgerton. The installment will introduce Sophie Beckett, who never dreamed she would be able to sneak into Lady Bridgerton’s famed masquerade ball or that Prince Charming would be waiting there for her. Though the daughter of an earl, Sophie has been relegated to the role of servant by her disdainful stepmother. But now, spinning in the strong arms of the debonair and devastatingly handsome Benedict Bridgerton, she feels like royalty. Alas, she knows all enchantments must end when the clock strikes midnight.
The narrative will progress with a radiant vision in silver blinding Benedict to the attractions of any other, except perhaps this alluring and oddly familiar beauty dressed in housemaid’s garb whom he feels compelled to rescue from a most disagreeable situation. He has sworn to find and wed his mystery miss, but this breathtaking maid makes him weak with wanting her. “Yet if he offers her his heart, will Benedict sacrifice his only chance for a fairy tale love?” reads the logline.
Luke Thompson will headline the fourth season as Benedict. He will be joined by Nicola Coughlan as Penelope Bridgerton and Luke Newton as Colin Bridgerton. “They’ve told us we’re back for season 4, which is super lovely… It’ll be exciting. [We’ll] pop back and have some fun for sure,” Nicola told TheWrap. The rest of the cast is currently under wraps.
The third season also featured Adjoa Andoh as Lady Agatha Danbury, Lorraine Ashbourne as Mrs. Varley, Jonathan Bailey as Anthony Bridgerton, Harriet Cains as Philippa Finch, Bessie Carter as Prudence Dankworth, Ruth Gemmell as Violet Bridgerton, and Florence Hunt as Hyacinth Bridgerton, along with many more. Most of the main cast members are expected to return in the fourth installment.
In ‘Bridgerton,’ while much of the action unfolds in London, various locations, such as Bath’s Royal Crescent, stand in for the capital. The exterior of the Bridgertons’ residence is filmed at Ranger’s House in Greenwich, with street scenes often shot at the Old Royal Naval College nearby. Scenes set inside Queen Charlotte’s Palace are captured at Lancaster House and Hampton Court Palace. The spin-off series, ‘Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story,’ also uses London as one of its prominent backdrops. Similarly, Netflix’s ‘The Crown‘ also utilized London’s backdrop, in addition to ‘Maxton Hall,’ which used the city for its modern business-class backdrop.
