"As soon as the cast list was out, I saw fan art! And I hadn't even had a costume fitting," Luke Newton laughs, recalling the whirlwind that was joining the Bridgerton phenomenon. Known for his portrayal of the kind-hearted Colin Bridgerton, Newton is back for a second season, and this time, his character is serving up a healthy dose of charm... and a hearty appetite.
If you find yourself thinking, "Wow, Colin really likes his food," while watching Bridgerton season 2, you're not wrong. Newton, a dedicated fan of the books, fought hard for this detail.

This journey of self-discovery is something many viewers can relate to, making Colin's arc all the more compelling.
