Dear reader, we’re happy to tell you that Season 3 of Bridgerton is coming. And as the upcoming season gets closer, more and more details about the show are coming out, which is very exciting.
Since its debut two years ago, Netflix’s Bridgerton, which was formed by Chris Van Dusen as well as generated by Shonda Rhimes, had also quickly become a pop culture landmark. The Regency-era romance controversy broke records when it came out on Netflix in 2020, and its second season, which came out in March 2022, didn’t change that trend.
Since about April 2022, Bridgerton’s second episode has been watched more times than any other English-language TV show on Netflix. For both of its seasons, the show has been praised by critics for its costumes, acting, dramatic as well as sexy storylines, and representation of a wide range of people on screen.
People are completely smitten with the world of the ‘Ton. So much so that the show was picked up for a third as well as fourth season more than a decade before the second episode was set to air. Jess Brownell, who has started working on other Shondaland manages hits like Scandal as well as Inventing Anna, will be in charge of the third season.
The street is where the outside of the Featherington house is shown, but none of the main Featherington family members were there.
Back in 2022, a summary of season 3 was released. It said that Penelope had finally given up on her lengthy crush on Colin Bridgerton” after she heard him say bad things about her in the previous season.
It went on to say, “She has decided, however, that it is time to get married, preferably to a man who will give her enough freedom to live her dbl life as Woman Whistledown away from her sisters and mother.
The highly anticipated third season of a Netflix regency drama Bridgerton is already being filmed. Since July 2022, cameras have been rolling, but because of how big the show is, production could go on for a while longer. Even though this signifies that it may be a while until we see any new season footage, Netflix has been giving us a lot of information.
We know that there will be a lot of new characters in town this time, and we also know what the main storyline of season 3 will be. In Season 3, we’ll learn about the love between Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) and Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton).
Based on Julia Quinn’s fourth book, “Romancing Mr. Bridgerton,” the Regency family has a lot of trouble ahead of them.
We’ve been also keeping a close eye on all the constellations’ social media for news, and we’ve been looking all over the web for the most up-to-date information on the movie’s release.

Bridgerton Season 3 Release Date
Netflix hasn’t said when season 3 of Bridgerton will be out. But now that filming for the new season has begun, we’re one small step to seeing it. This was shown in a Netflix video from July 2022, which had shown most of the cast back on the set.
Let’s look at the schedules for the last few seasons to get an idea of when these episodes might be on Netflix. The first season of Bridgerton began filming in July 2019, ended at the end of February 2020, and came out in December 2020.
Due to COVID, filming for the second season didn’t finish until November 2021, even though it started in March 2021. In March 2022, that season came out. From trying to film to release, both seasons took almost a year, so season 3 of Bridgerton might not come out until at least the summer of 2023.
Bridgerton Season 3 Cast
Penelope Hetherington, played by Nicola Coughlan, will be back, as will her boyfriend Colin, her ex-best friend Eloise, and other members of the Bridgerton family. However, Francesca’s part has been changed. Ruby Stokes’s role as the Bridgerton sister will be taken over by Hannah Dodd since Stokes had also moved on now to the lead role in Google’s Lockwood & Co.
Daniel Francis (Stay Close) will play Marcus Anderson, Sam Phillips (The Crown) will play Lord Debling, and James Phoon (Wreck) will play Harry Dankworth. Hannah New is the newest member of the cast. She will play Lady Tilley Arnold, a young widow who likes being in charge of her late husband’s estate because it gives her financial, social, and sexual freedom.
We know what you’re all thinking, but Regé-Jean Page, who played the smoldering Duke of Hastings in Season 1, will also not be back for Season 3. The actor has made it clear that Bridgerton is no longer important to him.

Bridgerton Season 3 Trailer
Bridgerton Season 3 Plot
The first two seasons of the show were in the same order as the books by Julia Quinn. However, Netflix has confirmed that Season 3 will be out of order, even though they plan to adapt all of the books.
The third book, “An Offer from a Gentleman,” is about Benedict’s (Luke Thompson) search for love. Season 3 will skip that book and go straight to book 4, “Romancing Mr. Bridgerton,” which is about Penelope and Colin.
And for those who were disappointed that Daphne and The Duke didn’t have as many steamy scenes in Season 2 as they did in Season 1, Nicola Coughlan has stated that if the show stays true to the book, Season 3 will have a lot of steamy scenes.
So much so that, according to Digital Spy, the actress is thinking about asking for a special PG cut so that her family can watch it. “In the carriage, there’s a scene.
And it’s just that if they’re kind of fighting, then everything gets extremely intimate, shall humans say, but I assume it will be a good scene on the show. I’m scared to think about making a movie, but I believe it would be great.”
She went on to say “So I understand that in that scene, things get very steamy. I know already what’s going to happen.”
She did say that being the main character in the upcoming season is “terrifying,” but she also said that she has “known for a very long time” and has had time to get used to the idea. She said, “I’ve known for about two weeks, which gave me a lot of moment to get used to it.”
“But then, they were like, “Last night,” “The news is spreading. You can speak about that now, but I said, “I do not want to. I’m too nervous.” Once I say it out loud, it becomes real to me.
And when she was on the ATAS panel again for the opening ceremonies of Netflix’s FYSEE Space on May 15, she affirmed that season three will focus on the love story between her character Penelope and Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton).
She told People, Like Lady Whistledown, I’ve been keeping it a secret for a long time, and I can confirm that season three is the love story of Colin and Penelope. I haven’t told anyone since the second week of season two.
I’m saying it for the first time here.’ This came after she had already talked with the same media organization regarding Penelope’s future before the March premiere of season two.
She stated at the time, “I think Penelope needs a bit more time before Helen gets into that.” I think it’s safe to say that she is still a wallflower. She is acting like a businesswoman. Since the first season, Penelope and Colin have had a slight attraction to each other.
