The Bridgerton fanbase is buzzing with excitement and speculation about who will take center stage in season 4. The popular Netflix series, based on Julia Quinn's Regency-era romance novels, has followed the love lives of different Bridgerton siblings each season. With seasons 1 and 2 focusing on Daphne and Anthony respectively, and season 3 skipping ahead to Colin, the question of who will lead the next season remains a tantalizing mystery.
Showrunner Jess Brownell recently revealed that the lead role is down to three characters: Benedict, Eloise, or Francesca.
The Contenders
Benedict Bridgerton:
Benedict, the second-eldest son, played by Luke Thompson, has been a fan favorite for his artistic and free-spirited nature. His story, based on the third book "An Offer from a Gentleman," is a Cinderella-inspired romance that promises drama and intrigue.
The season 3 finale hinted heavily at Benedict's upcoming love story, with a tease of the central masquerade ball where he is destined to meet his future wife, Sophie.
"I need something more," Benedict confided to Eloise, his voice heavy with introspection. "This feeling of drifting... it has to end. I need a purpose, a direction."
This moment of reflection suggests that Benedict is on the brink of significant personal growth, making him a strong candidate for the lead in season 4.
