Bridgerton Season 4's Premiere Date Has Been Revealed

Fans anxiously waited three years for Bridgerton’s third season — also known as the horniest season of the series so far. Now that the third installment is finished, fans are counting down the days until Season 4 comes. And luckily, the Regency romance series is already throwing us some delicious crumbs to pass the time.

Back in the summer of 2024, showrunner Jess Brownell told The Hollywood Reporter that fans should anticipate around a two-year wait. “We’re kind of on a two-year pace, we’re trying to speed up but [it’s] somewhere in that range,” she said, adding it takes a lot of time to make a universally accessible season. “They do take eight months to film and then they have to be edited, and then they have to be dubbed into every language. The writing takes a very long time as well.”

While that wait might be excruciating, there have been some very promising updates recently. The season officially began production in 2024, with a key new cast member finally being unveiled. And now, a release date has been confirmed. Actually, the new season is getting two premieres.

Here’s everything to know about Bridgerton’s fourth season so far.

Which Bridgerton Sibling Will Lead Season 4?

Fans already had a pretty solid guess about which sibling’s love story would be at the center of Season 4, but Netflix finally confirmed the show’s next suitor in a July 2024 video. As had been widely speculated, it’s time for Benedict to find his true love.

Benedict’s storyline appears in the third book; however, the third season focused on Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington’s slow-burn romance instead. Season 3’s final episodes seemed to tease Benedict would be next by including a subtle reference to how he meets his future love interest.

Meet Sophie Baek

With Benedict as Season 4’s suitor, the next big question was who would be playing Sophie, his romantic partner in the novels. Netflix announced Yerin Ha will be waltzing her way into the ton as the mysterious lady in silver. A few days after she was cast in the fall of 2024, Netflix shared the first photo of Ha with Luke Thompson on set.

The photo came with the update that Season 4 had begun production.

The First Photos Are Seriously Swoon-Worthy

On Valentine’s Day 2025, Netflix treated all the lovestruck Bridgerton fans with a first glimpse of Season 4. Along with a short preview clip, the streamer shared the first photos of the season, showing Benedict and Sophie’s first meeting at the masquerade ball.

Other new photos included a look at Penelope and Colin holding their no-longer-newborn baby, and the Featheringtons making their wickedly fashionable entrance at the ball.

There Are More New Cast Members

Sophie isn’t going to be the only new face in the ton. When Season 4’s filming began, the show also revealed three more characters. Katie Leung will play Lady Araminta Gun, Michelle Mao will play Rosamund Li, and Isabella Wei has been cast as Posy Li.

Bridgerton’s Fourth Season Has 2 Premiere Dates

A short teaser for the upcoming season confirmed that it will be released in two batches. Part 1 will premiere on Jan. 26, with Part 2 following less than a month later on Feb. 26.
