00:00Dearest gentle reader, it's official! We now know which sibling is set to lead Bridgerton's
00:14fourth season. Netflix announced that the next season will, in fact, focus on Benedict Bridgerton,
00:19played by Luke Thompson. The streamer welcomed the second-eldest,
00:22love-averse Bridgerton brother to the marriage mart via a social media post.
00:26I'm honored to accept your acceptance.
00:32The season will focus on the Bridgerton sibling, who does not want to settle down
00:36until he meets a captivating Lady in Silver, or, spoiler alert, as book fans will know her Sophie,
00:42at his mother's masquerade ball. I hear we're fitting you for a suit.
00:45I already have an outfit for tonight. Oh no, it's not for tonight. It's for the
00:48masquerade ball. The Regency-era drama's third season recently smashed records
00:53as one of the streaming service's most-watched shows, with Luke Newton's Colin and Nicola
00:58Coughlin's Penelope passing the baton to Thompson. The season will have eight episodes.
01:02A premiere date has yet to be announced, although showrunner Jess Brownell previously told THR
01:08that it'll be at least a two-year wait before the next season airs.
01:11We're trying to speed up, but somewhere in that range.
