Dear gentle readers, our day has been made as Netflix has officially confirmed that the beloved Regency-era drama will have not just one but two additional seasons. What's more thrilling? Season 4 will premiere in 2026, promising more passion, intrigue, and irresistible romance.

Since its debut in 2020, each of the three previous seasons has ranked among Netflix’s Most Popular, with Seasons 1 and 3 sitting at #5 and #7 after their release. The fan-favourite prequel, Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, had dominated the Global Top 10.

The next season will focus on Benedict Bridgerton, played by Luke Thompson, the bohemian second son of the Bridgerton family. The latest news from the ton comes in the form of an exciting clip featuring the never-settling son as he falls for the mysterious Lady in Silver, whose name is Sophie Baek, at Lady Bridgerton’s famous masquerade ball. Get ready to swoon while watching the teaser!

Alongside Thompson and Ha, the cast of Bridgerton Season 4 features Bailey as Anthony Bridgerton, Simone Ashley as Kate Bridgerton, Adjoa Andoh as Lady Danbury, Nicola Coughlan as Penelope Bridgerton, Dodd as Francesca Stirling, Gemmell as Violet Bridgerton, Florence Hunt as Hyacinth Bridgerton, Claudia Jessie as Eloise Bridgerton, and Newton as Colin Bridgerton.

“What’s striking about Season 4,” Thompson tells Netflix, “is the struggle between a proper old-school fairy tale, the romance of it, and the actual reality of the world.” Season 4 reveals the intricacies of the extravagant households of the ton and introduces some of the people who keep these aristocratic clans running. “Both are true,” Thompson continues. “You have to hold both the romance and the reality in your hand. In its best version, ‘true love’ happens in the middle of that.”
