The first image of Benedict and Sophie has been revealed asBridgertonseason 4 enters production. The Netflix series, which adapts the Julia Quinn novels, has been successful during its run so far. Season 3 was chart-topping during the time of its release this year, staying in the global top 10 for several weeks.Season 4 has been confirmed and is currently in development. In addition to returning cast members,Bridgertonseason 4will feature Yerin Ha as Sophie.
Now,Netflixhas shared the first set photo forBridgertonseason 4. The photo reveals the first look at the new stars, which are Luke Thompson’s Benedict Bridgerton, a recurring character, and Ha’s Sophie Baek (renamed from Sophie Beckett in the books).

What This Means For Bridgerton Season 4’s Release Date
Bridgerton Season 4 Could Come Sooner Rather Than Later
Currently, there is no release date for this upcoming season ofBridgerton.Historically, there have been about a year-and-a-half or two-year gaps between seasons.Bridgertonseason 1 was released in December 2020, andBridgertonseason 2 came in March 2022. There was an even larger gap betweenseasons 2 and 3, with over two years between them. If season 4 follows this pattern, it would arrive no earlier than late 2025 if not 2026.
The fact thatBridgertonseason 4 has begun production, however, is a good sign of the swift completion of the forthcoming season. It was not long ago thatBridgetonseason 3, part 2was released, so Netflix’s production on the fourth season is a good sign the series could come back sooner rather than later. Withseason 3’s success, it is likelier that the streamer will prioritize the next season.
Why Bridgerton Season 4 Could Be Its Most Exciting Yet
Sophie Is A Great Character
Another good sign in my eyes forBridgertonseason 4 is the fact that Netflix is really promoting Ha’s Sophie character. The streamer recently released aBridgertonvideo highlighting Sophie as the new lead for season 4. Netflix prioritizes Sophie again through this latest photo release, which shows her and Benedict. Sophie is a beloved character from theQuinn’sBridgertonbook series, and Ha’s casting has been praised by fans, boding well for the success ofBridgertonseason 4.
