Bridgerton Season 4: Exciting Updates on Romance, Drama, and Return of Beloved Characters

In addition, shaking up the typical London scenery for a grand castle in Scotland would be a change of pace, and a compelling side-plot to complement Benedict.

Eloise also joined Francesca in Scotland and has been a prominent supporting figure throughout the show, especially to both Penelope and Colin.

The second-eldest sister in the family accompanied Francesca and John to Scotland so she could experience fresh scenery and step outside of her comfort zone. Brownell told The Wrap that Eloise is not interested in romance at the moment, which should come as no surprise considering her outspoken, feminist nature.

As Jess Brownell puts it:

“I think it’s absolutely possible that she’s going to open up to love in the future, but we have a little bit more we want to do with her before she’s ready for that.”

Therefore, Eloise will likely be a supportive figure for Benedict, but her romance will be on the back burner for now.

The series, written by Julia Quinn, consists of eight novels, and Netflix has so far filmed only three (plus the Queen Charlotte prequel). There is still a lot of material waiting to be adapted, and ahead of fans, there are many adventures of the Bridgerton family members.

### What happened at the end of Bridgerton season 3?

The key reveal at the end of the latest season of Bridgerton was that Penelope announced she was Lady Whistledown to not just the Queen, but the whole of society. Her identity began to unravel when Cressida claimed to be the renowned gossip columnist to claim a reward and get out of a marriage she hated. Penelope went to disprove the lies but was caught on the way to the printer shop by her fiancé, Colin.

The Bridgerton sibling felt betrayed by her lies, and though he agreed to marry her to keep his honour, their first few days as husband and wife got off to a rocky start. When Cressida did some more digging, she found out Whistledown’s true identity. She blackmailed Penelope, who had to scramble to find a way through the mess. Colin tried to take control of the situation, but just made things worse.

Penelope finally decided to come clean and explain why her alias gave her a voice in society. Her husband, family, and friends were proud of her decision, and she continued to write, just under her real name rather than her false one.

In a flash-forward, we saw that Penelope and Colin had a baby, a boy who inherited the Lord Featherington title to carry on the family name. Meanwhile, Kate and Anthony went to India to visit Edwina and were expecting their first child before they went. Therefore, we may see more Bridgerton babies in season 4. Violet is also exploring a possible relationship with Lady Danbury’s brother, Lord Marcus Anderson.

### Which cast members will return for Bridgerton season 4?

### Who will play the new characters in Bridgerton season 4?

The following season of Bridgerton will also feature some new additions. One of the most crucial will be Sophie, Benedict Bridgerton’s sweetheart. According to Variety, the iconic Lady in Silver will be played by Yerin Ha. You may know the actress from her performance in the Halo series on Paramount+.

The character’s name will be changed from Sophie Beckett to Sophie Baek, who has been given a Korean surname out of respect for Ha’s culture (via Netflix). As Ha states, “A name is the first bit of identity that you share with the world, and that’s why changing a name can be so powerful.”

The series’ creators describe Sophie as “plucky, endlessly resourceful, and [has] trouble trusting others.” (via Collider).

Netflix has since confirmed her casting, officially welcoming her to the Bridgerton family with this video:

Confirmed additions to the cast include:

– Katie Leung as Lady Araminta Gun, twice-married and twice-widowed mother of two daughters, debuting on the marriage mart. According to Netflix, she’s fabulous, discerning, blunt, and determined to keep her position in society
– Michelle Mao as Rosamund Li, Araminta’s eldest daughter. Bridgerton fans can look forward to the introduction of a new character in the upcoming seasons. Posy Li, played by Isabella Wei, is described as chatty and friendly, setting her apart from her sister Rosamund. As the series progresses, viewers will see how Posy navigates the social scene of the ton, showcasing her unique personality traits.

In addition to Posy’s storyline, the highly-anticipated seasons 5 and 6 of Bridgerton have been confirmed by Netflix.
