Recently, Netflix has made some new announcements about the “schedule” of Bridgerton – a romantic series set in the British time but with a fictional and modernized version. Accordingly, Bridgerton will continue to make parts 5 and 6 – previously Netflix only confirmed up to part 4. At the same time, Netflix also scheduled the reference for part 4 in 2026, the specific date has not been announced yet.
This creates a mixed feeling of joy and sadness for Bridgerton. Bridgerton fans all know that the film can be adapted based on the novels of author Julia Quinn, including 8 books. What is special is that the main character of each book, as well as each season, will not be fixed but will rotate to be one of the Bridgerton sisters. Accordingly, it can be seen that Daphne debuted in season 1, Anthony got married in season 2, Colin was the focus of season 3.
The Bridgerton family has up to 8 siblings, so it is completely reasonable for the show to have a new season. The central character as well as the content of seasons 5 and 6 of Bridgerton have not been revealed yet. It is also unclear whether these two seasons will choose all the remaining characters to play, or if there will be a new season after that – if the viewership performance meets Netflix’s requirements.
Although Netflix is very happy that Bridgerton has limited new seasons, viewers are not completely satisfied with the fact that there is a long gap between seasons. Season 1 premiered in 2020, season 2 premiered in 2022, season 3 reunited in 2024, and with season 4 premiering in 2026 – it can be seen that Bridgerton takes an average of 2 years for a season.
So, it is likely that the season 5 of Fake Heroes will not be seen until 2028 and 2030 for season 6. Some viewers are worried that the cast will have people in their 40s when the season where they are the main characters begins.
In recent years, Netflix has also had the “trick” of dividing the show into two parts to show, like Bridgerton season 3. Part 1 consists of 4 episodes aired on May 16, 2024 and the audience has to wait another month to watch the note of part 2 consisting of 4 episodes later aired on June 13, 2024. Most of the assumptions do not like this. They comment that they just want to watch a movie in one go, especially when they have to wait quite a long time.
Season 4 of Bridgerton revolves around the story of Benedict Bridgerton (Luke Thompson) – the second son of the Bridgerton family. At this time, when his older brother Anthony and younger brother Colin were both married, and his younger sisters Daphne and Francesca were also married, Benedict became the new “target” in his mother’s matchmaking. Lady Violet wanted to find a suitable bride for her son, and she organized a masquerade ball.
A short video of Bridgerton season 4 was also revealed, finding a part of the masquerade party. There, Benedict – dressed as a romantic pirate, was captivated by a girl in a white dress and a silver mask. She was fascinated by the chandelier, and Benedict was fascinated by her. That girl was Sophie Baek (Yerin Ha) – the interesting illegitimate daughter of a Count, but Benedict did not know that at that time.
Some comments from netizens:
“There will be a season dedicated to Eloise Bridgerton! Come on!!!”
“We have to wait until 2026 for season 4, oh my god, that’s too long! But there’s season 5 and season 6, wow!”
“At this rate, season 6 will be out in 2030. A decade for 6 seasons? That’s ridiculous. Can’t they hurry up?”
“I’m looking forward to season 4, Benedict’s couple is my favorite couple in the books.”
“I thought season 4 would come out this year, but it looks like we’ll have to wait.”
“The mid-season release is making me nervous.”
“Can’t you just split the references in half? Let us watch all 8 episodes at once.”
“I can’t wait 2 years for 8 episodes.”
“Some of the actors may have been in their 40s when the reference season 6 was lost…”
