In a star-studded celebration of Bridgerton’s opulent third season, Netflix and Shondaland joined forces for a fan extravaganza, unveiling tantalizing details about the eagerly anticipated two-part premiere on May 16 and June 13, 2024.
The panel featured luminaries like Shonda Rhimes, showrunner Jess Brownell, author Julia Quinn, and a stellar cast, including Nicola Coughlan, Luke Newton, Golda Rosheuvel, Adjoa Andoh, Claudia Jessie, Luke Thompson, and Martins Imhangbe.
Attendees were treated to episode titles, exclusive character photos, confirmed book-to-episode adaptations, a surprising fan wedding announcement, and a sneak peek of the season premiere.
Shonda Rhimes and Jess Brownell engaged in a lively discussion about what fans can expect in the upcoming season, joined by insights from Julia Quinn on the adaptation process.
“Usually we’re meeting a new person who’s falling in love with one of our regulars,” said Shonda Rhimes when asked about what excites her most this season. “But this time, we know the people who are falling in love. We’re already rooting for them because we already know them, and I’m excited for that.”
“Colin and Penelope are underdogs in many ways…we get to see these characters step into their power this year, which I think will make a lot of people who have ever had an unrequited crush or felt like an underdog before feel very seen,” said Jess Brownell.
The revelation of a fan-favorite moment, where Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) tends to Colin Bridgerton’s (Luke Newton) injured hand, left fans buzzing with anticipation. Brownell then unveiled episode titles, offering a glimpse into the season’s intriguing story arc.
Joined by the cast, the panel teased character arcs and introduced a new suitor for Penelope – Lord Debling (Sam Phillips). Exclusive photos of beloved characters added to the excitement, featuring Eloise Bridgerton, Benedict Bridgerton, Queen Charlotte, Lady Danbury, Cressida Cowper, Will Mondrich, Alice Mondrich, and the Featherington sisters Prudence and Philipa.
In a charming twist, Adjoa Andoh and Golda Rosheuvel disclosed Netflix’s plan to host a Bridgerton-themed wedding for select fans, emphasizing the special connection between the series and its dedicated fan base. Further details on this heartwarming surprise were directed to Tudum.
To cap off the event, Netflix treated attendees to a one-minute clip from the upcoming season, offering a tantalizing glimpse into the unfolding drama and setting the stage for what promises to be a captivating journey.
