Dearest readers, get ready for the new lead to take over in season four of Netflix\u2019s Bridgerton!<\/p>\n

Since Bridgerton<\/em>\u2018s debut in 2020, the show has captivated many viewers, quickly becoming a fan-favorite series. The show stars Phoebe Dynevor<\/a><\/strong>, Rege-Jean Page Luke Newton<\/strong>, Reg\u00e9-Jean Page<\/a><\/strong>, and others, with their characters navigating the high society of London in hopes of finding love.<\/p>\n

Throughout the three seasons, we see the storyline focus on different characters. In season one, the script follows Daphne Bridgerton. Kate Sharma, portrayed by Simone Ashley<\/a><\/strong>, took over in season two. In the most recent season, we see the love story unfold between Penelope Featherington, played by Nicola Coughlan<\/a><\/strong>, and Colin Bridgerton, played by Luke Newton.<\/p>\n

In this upcoming season, Netflix revealed on their \u00a0<\/span>social platforms<\/span><\/a>, \u201cIt has been brought to this author\u2019s attention that perhaps it is time to unmask the newest suitor of the marriage mart\u2026 Benedict Bridgerton\u2019s story is coming next season.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n<\/blockquote>\n

Fans immediately rushed to the comment section to express their excitement for the upcoming season.<\/p>\n

\u201cGOOD NEWS! I LOVE GOOD NEWS! WE LOVEEEEE GOOD NEWS,\u201d one user wrote.<\/p>\n

Another Bridgerton fan noted with a pink heart, \u201cGet your dresses and masks ready! The masquerade ball is on its way! I can\u2019t wait to know who Sophie will be!!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOMG IM FREAKING OUT!!! The masquerade, THE LAKE, SOPHIE, MY COTTAGE\u2026AHHHHHH,\u201d someone else chimed in on the excitement.<\/p>\n

Luke Thompson<\/strong>, who plays Benedict, had his co-star Luke Newton comment on the post with an enthusiastic message that read, \u201cLet\u2019s go bro!\u201d<\/p>\n

In an interview last month on The View<\/a><\/em>, the 36-year-old actor was asked if he had any guesses as to who may be the protagonist in this upcoming season. He gave minimal details, \u201cI know that it\u2019s so lovely [and] that one of the best things about a TV job is you get to really explore a character long-form like that and fill him in slowly\u2026So as long as I keep getting to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n

With the release of season three part two in June, fans will have to wait about two years to watch season four.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
