Netflix's Bridgerton will skip ahead in its third season and will focus on the love story of Luke Newton's Colin Bridgerton and Nicola Coughlan's Penelope Featherington.
While Bridgerton's first two seasons followed the first two novels by Julia Quinn, Variety reports that Coughlan revealed during Sunday's FYSEE panel that this upcoming season will instead focus on the fourth book. The third book's story, which is centered around Benedict Bridgerton's love life, will likely be pushed to a later season.
Spoilers ahead for Bridgerton's second season!
At the end of Bridgerton's second season, Penelope overheard Colin saying he would never marry her. This was especially painful as Penelope has had her eye on Colin for some time.
Season 3 will also see Hannah Dodd taking up the role of Francesca Bridgerton. Ruby Sokes, who previously played her, is the lead in Netflix's Lockwood & Co. and stepped down from Bridgerton.
Season 2 of Bridgerton debuted on Netflix on March 25, 2022, and, in our review, we said that "Bridgerton’s second outing proves it wasn’t just a one-hit wonder, with more sizzling romance and delicious intrigue."
