Netflix Renews ‘Bridgerton’ for Seasons 5 and 6, Season 4 Set for 2026 Release

The ton is buzzing once again. Netflix has officially renewed Bridgerton for Seasons 5 and 6, bringing fans one step closer to seeing all eight Bridgerton siblings find love. In addition, the streaming giant has confirmed that Season 4 will debut in 2026, keeping fans on their toes for what comes next in this beloved Regency-era romance series.

The announcement was made during Netflix’s 2025 Upfront presentation, where the platform unveiled fresh footage from Season 4, teasing a new romantic arc that centers around Benedict Bridgerton, played by Luke Thompson, and his upcoming love interest Sophie Baek, portrayed by Yerin Ha.

Netflix Doubles Down on Bridgerton’s Future with Two More Seasons

This new two-season renewal brings the series officially past its halfway point. The show, which adapts Julia Quinn’s best-selling novels, was always intended to follow each of the eight Bridgerton siblings through their personal love stories. With this update, Netflix has now committed to adapting at least six of those eight stories.

Season 3, released in two parts during May and June 2024, focused on Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) and Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan). Season 2, released in March 2022, followed Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey) and Kate Sharma (Simone Ashley). The debut season back in 2020 starred Phoebe Dynevor as Daphne Bridgerton alongside Regé-Jean Page as Simon Basset.

Now, all eyes are on Benedict, whose romantic journey is expected to unfold through a Cinderella-style love story with Sophie, introduced in a masquerade ball scene in the new teaser footage. The chemistry between Thompson and Ha is already sparking fan excitement.

Who’s Returning and Who’s New in Bridgerton Season 4?

Netflix has confirmed that many fan favorites will return in Season 4, including:

  • Jonathan Bailey as Anthony Bridgerton
  • Adjoa Andoh as Lady Danbury
  • Nicola Coughlan as Penelope Featherington
  • Claudia Jessie as Eloise Bridgerton
  • Golda Rosheuvel as Queen Charlotte
  • Hannah Dodd as Francesca Bridgerton
  • Simone Ashley as Kate Sharma
  • Julie Andrews continuing as the voice of Lady Whistledown

Joining them are new cast members Isabella Wei, Michelle Mao, and Katie Leung as Sophie’s stepmother and stepsisters. Their characters, Lady Araminta Gun, Rosamund Li, and Posy Li, are expected to add drama to Sophie’s storyline.

Executive producer and showrunner Jess Brownell will continue to lead the project alongside Shonda Rhimes, Betsy Beers, Tom Verica, and series creator Chris Van Dusen.

With four siblings still waiting to find their happily ever after — Eloise, Francesca, Gregory, and Hyacinth — the Bridgerton journey is far from over.

Stay tuned as Netflix teases more glimpses from Season 4, and fans count down the days until 2026. One thing is certain: love, scandal, and Lady Whistledown’s sharp pen are far from finished.
