At the U.K. premiere of *Bridgerton* Season 3, Part 2, showrunner Jess Brownell revealed some exciting details about the future of the Netflix hit. As Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington’s story wraps up with the final four episodes of the current season, fans are already speculating about which Bridgerton sibling will take the spotlight next.
Brownell, speaking to *The Hollywood Reporter*, shared her excitement about the forthcoming season and the creative process behind it. While she was tight-lipped about who will lead Season 4, she hinted that the writers’ room is nearing the end of their work on the scripts. She humorously said:
“I have almost slipped up a couple of times, so keep asking, and maybe I’ll slip up. We’re toward the end with the writers’ room season, with the scripts. And I feel like it’s some of my best work and my writers room’s best work. We’ve just really gelled our collaboration, and we’re firing on all cylinders, so I can’t wait for fans to see what we have.”

Despite the enthusiasm, Brownell confirmed that fans will need to be patient for the next installment. “We are working to try and put the seasons out more quickly, but they do take eight months to film and then they have to be edited, and then they have to be dubbed into every language,” she explained. “And the writing takes a very long time as well, so we’re kind of on a two-year pace. We’re trying to speed up, but somewhere in that range.”
As for who will lead Season 4, fans are buzzing with speculation. Will it be Luke Thompson’s Benedict, a fan favorite, or Claudia Jessie’s Eloise, who many believe is ready for her moment in the spotlight?
Brownell remained coy but acknowledged the passionate opinions of *Bridgerton* fans on social media. “I think it’s hard to say. There’s so many different ships,” she said. “I think one of the ships is going to be very, very happy.”

Reflecting on the series’ success, Brownell expressed gratitude for the performances of the show’s power couples, past and present.
“I am so proud of how this season has performed and so grateful to the fans for tuning in. Every season, the momentum builds more and more, and we have a debt to pay to the actors in seasons one and two for helping build enthusiasm. Then, I think Nicola and Luke have helped build a lot of enthusiasm.”
In summary, while *Bridgerton* fans will have to wait around two years for Season 4, Brownell assures them it will be worth it. With the writers delivering some of their best work yet, the anticipation for the next Bridgerton sibling to take center stage continues to build.
