Since the adaptation of Julia Quinn’s beloved novels landed on Netflix on Christmas Day in 2020, the show has only gone from strength to strength, amassing one of the largest audiences for a Netflix Original. The last we saw of Bridgerton was in March 2022, but only a few short months later it has been confirmed production of Bridgerton season 3 is now underway. Here’s everything we know so far about Bridgerton season 3 on Netflix.
With almost 950 million hours viewed in 2022, Bridgerton is only second to the likes of Stranger Things in popularity. 656 million hours came within the first 28 days of the second season’s release, and the remainder is thanks to new audiences binging the series, along with fans watching the series on repeat. Between being renewed for a third and fourth season, and a spin-off for the character of Queen Charlotte, the Bridgerton franchise has firmly cemented its place on Netflix.
Shonda Rhimes, the executive producer of Bridgerton, first inked a deal with Netflix in 2018. Even though it took two years and a half years before the first series from her production, Shondaland, would arrive on Netflix, ithe overwhelming success more than made up for the wait. With many more projects on the way, fans should be excited to see more of the world of Bridgerton, and exciting new dramas in the near future.
What is the production status of Bridgerton season 3?
Official Production Status: Filming (Last Updated: 20/07/2022) Thanks to the cast members of Bridgerton, it has been revealed in a YouTube video released by Netflix that filming has officially begun. Filming is expected to last for the remainder of the year and is scheduled to conclude by December 20th, 2022.
When is the Bridgerton season 3 Netflix release date?
Bridgerton season 3 won’t be coming to Netflix in 2022. The series will return to Netflix at some point in 2023, most likely in the Summer or the Fall. The reason why we could be waiting until the Summer is due to the fact filming won’t conclude until the end of the year, and afterward, production will move into post-production where all the magic of SFX and VFX take place. It must be noted that the showrunner of season 2, Chris Van Dausen, has stepped down and has been replaced by Jess Brownell. Van Dusen will stay onboard as an executive producer.
