The answer is a resounding yes. Netflix has officially made it clear that Bridgerton will return for a fourth season. And, it has also been informed that Season four will center on Benedict Bridgerton’s story, adapting Julia Quinn’s novel An Offer From a Gentleman.
This season, Benedict’s story takes a turn into the fantastical. Benedict’s journey involves love and self-discovery. A highly un-marriageable member of the Bridgerton family, Benedict is that bohemian younger son who wants nothing to do with marriage. As Luke Thompson, the actor playing Benedict, puts it, “a touch of fairy tale and a sense of reality.” The season promises plenty of action in that masquerade ball Benedict will be celebrating in his romantic arc.

Bridgerton Season 4: New Lead Actress – Yerin Ha
In Bridgerton, a South Korean-Australian actress Yerin Ha plays the love interest of the protagonist, Benedict. For her, the depth and challenge of her character, especially Sophie Baek’s case on matters of social status, excites her. The filmmakers even got Sophie’s surname from Beck to reflect her South Korean ethnicity. This, according to Ha, gives her role a personal and empowering undertone.
What’s Else to Expect?
It was setting up Benedict’s arc, with clues – like a masquerade – hinting at what was yet to come. But still, as producer showrunner Jess Brownell mentioned, there’s no more script writing for season four, and provided a look at what the show is expecting this autumnal visual palette to do in ways the show won’t do.
The new characters entering the ton include Lady Araminta Gun, a mother, and her daughters Rosamund and Posy, played by Katie Leung. With the arrival of these ladies, drama is coming. Rosamund sets her eyes on Benedict, which creates conflicts in his pursuit of his love interest.
Former Favorites Return:
More of the well-loved characters like Anthony and Kate Sharma, Bridgerton Jonathan Bailey, and Simone Ashley will reappear again. Nicola Coughlan and Luke Newton, off their season three storyline, will return. So, it’s all about continuity, and more: family dynamics.
According to Shonda Rhimes’ Vision
Shonda Rhimes would like to see every Bridgerton sibling come to life on screen. She has pledged that there will be a minimum of eight seasons. Rhimes has indicated that there could even be more series. A season is dedicated to one sibling’s storyline, but their stories are very interwoven to create the bigger picture.
