After the romantic whirlwind of Colin and Penelope in Season 3, Bridgerton fans are eagerly anticipating the spotlight shifting to another beloved sibling: Benedict Bridgerton. Season 4 will finally delve into Benedict’s story, drawing inspiration from Julia Quinn’s . Known for his artistic soul and bohemian lifestyle, Benedict is set to explore his journey of self-discovery and romance, promising a season full of charm, elegance, and a touch of rebellion.

Showrunner Jess Brownell revealed, “It felt important for him to explore the fullness of himself before he settles down.

Luke Thompson, who has charmed audiences as Benedict from the beginning, is ready to take on the leading role and explore this new chapter with depth and nuance.
