After two seasons of playing the younger-brother sidekick to his elder siblings Daphne and Anthony, Colin Bridgerton — and actor Luke Newton — is officially stepping into the spotlight as the romantic hero of "Bridgerton" season 3, which hits Netflix with its first four episodes on May 16. (The final four installments will follow nearly a month later on June 13.)
And to fully prepare for all of the attention that will come as the show follows Colin's friends-to-lovers relationship with Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) in the new episodes, Newton sought the counsel of some familiar faces: Regé-Jean Page, who portrayed Simon Basset, aka the Duke of Hastings, in the first "Bridgerton" season, and Jonathan Bailey, who led season 2 as the eldest Bridgerton son, Anthony.
