Nicola Coughlan and Luke Newton Tease Romantic Twists in ‘Bridgerton’ Season 4

As anticipation builds for the next season of ‘Bridgerton,’ the cast members have begun to share tantalizing hints about what fans can expect in the fourth installment of the hit Netflix series. Following the dramatic conclusion of season three, which saw the love story between Penelope Featherington (played by Nicola Coughlan) and Colin Bridgerton (played by Luke Newton) finally blossom, the stars discussed their hopes and expectations with E! News for the new season.

Nicola Coughlan expressed her eagerness to delve deeper into her character’s relationships, particularly with her best friend Eloise Bridgerton, portrayed by Claudia Jessie. “I want to get involved in Eloise’s business big time,” Coughlan revealed, envisioning a scenario reminiscent of the comedic film ‘You, Me and Dupree.’ She elaborated, “I really want a You, Me and Dupree situation for the three of us.”

Luke Newton, echoing Coughlan’s sentiments, hinted at the possibility of a new comedic dynamic for their characters in season four. “Maybe we can be the comedy duo of next season,” he mused, emphasizing their enjoyment of the series’ romantic comedy elements.

Adding to the excitement, Adjoa Andoh, who portrays the formidable Lady Danbury, shared her own humorous expectations for the upcoming season. “I’ll have some s*x as well,” she quipped, highlighting her desire to explore more of the romantic entanglements in the regency-era drama.

Ruth Gemmell, known for her role as the Bridgerton family matriarch Violet, expressed confidence that the new season would continue to be filled with romance and grand celebrations. “I foresee dancing for all of us,” she teased, suggesting that the decadent balls that ‘Bridgerton’ is known for will once again play a significant role.

However, not all cast members were as forthcoming about their characters’ futures. Jessica Madsen and Hannah Dodd, who portray Cressida Cowper and Francesca Bridgerton respectively, seemed more focused on the excitement of returning to set. “I can’t wait to get back to work,” Dodd exclaimed, while Madsen added with enthusiasm, “Let’s keep on rolling. Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go,” during an interview with E! News.

Claudia Jessie, who plays Eloise Bridgerton, admitted to being just as curious as the fans about what the new season will bring. “We know about as much as you do about season four. Honestly, genuinely,” Jessie confessed, indicating that the details of the upcoming season are being kept tightly under wraps.

As the premiere of ‘Bridgerton’ Season 4 approaches, fans can look forward to more romantic developments, comedic escapades, and the return of the lavish regency-era festivities that have become a hallmark of the series. With the cast’s hints and the unresolved storylines, the new season promises to deliver even more drama and excitement.
