We're finally returning to the Ton. More than 18 months after the release of the last season of Bridgerton—one of Netflix's most-watched TV shows of all time—season 4 drops its first batch of episodes on January 29, 2026, with the second half arriving February 26. This time around, we're focusing on Benedict Bridgerton (Luke Thompson), the charming, free-spirited star of Julia Quinn's third Bridgerton book, An Offer From a Gentleman. Thompson and Yerin Ha—who plays Benedict's love interest, Sophie Baek—will lead the cast of the fourth installment, while a mix of old favorites (Penelope Bridgerton, née Featherington!) and new stars (Michaela Stirling, a key player in a planned queer storyline for one Bridgerton daughter!).
