TPO – As a prequel to the popular historical drama “Bridgerton”, “Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story” easily attracts viewers with its classic romantic setting, gorgeous costumes and many hot scenes. The film also shocked viewers with its most outrageous “bed scene” ever.
Bridgerton is the most popular series in Netflix history. Based on the novels by Julia Quinn, the film is set in Regency England (early 19th century) and each season tells the love story of the siblings in the noble Bridgerton family.
The main story has released 2 parts in 2020 and 2022, with 2 more parts expected.
Following the success of the main story, the prequel Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story aired on May 4 and is receiving great attention from international viewers.
The central character of the film is Queen Charlotte (Golda Rosheuvel). The film tells the story of a young girl named Charlotte (India Amarteifio) rising to the position of supreme power in England.
As introduced, Charlotte reluctantly enters an arranged marriage with the handsome but troubled King George (Corey Mylchreest). From strangers, they try to build a relationship. In Bridgerton, they have 15 children together.
The film is full of “eye-catching” 18+ scenes such as frolicking in the bathtub or some “wet” images between two male servants… However, the most bizarre of them comes from a familiar supporting character.
Those who have watched the two main stories know about the confident and sharp Lady Agatha Danbury played by Adjoa Andoh. In Queen Charlotte, the younger version is played by Arsema Thomas.
Agatha Danbury is stuck in a loveless marriage with her much older husband, Lord Danbury (Cyril Nri).
There are some bland “bed” scenes between them that seem to highlight Lady Danbury’s unhappiness.
In episode 3, the two make love in bed. As usual, Lady Danbury looks bored and uncomfortable. She turns her face to the wall so she is not aware of her husband’s situation behind her. Mr. Danbury is “in the act” and suddenly stops, making his young wife confused and asking. However, she is answered by a loud “thud”. Agatha Danbury turns around and finds her husband dead on the floor.
The scene left viewers stunned. Most of them left comments saying that they could not have expected the Bridgerton prequel to go so far in creating a hot scene to have the character die during sex.
Bridgerton’s appeal compared to other works of the genre is its classic romantic setting, elaborate costume design, and realistic sex scenes. When part 2 premiered, many viewers complained that the sexual aspect was not as focused as expected. With Queen Charlotte, those opinions seem to be acknowledged. The film has many attractive details, not only sex scenes but also horrifying deaths.
