The protagonist in Bridgerton season 3 will be the second eldest of the Bridgerton siblings, Benedict and his love interest as following the chronology it should be based on Julia Quinns' third book in the series titled An Offer From A Gentleman.
Bridgerton season 2 was a massive success and Anthony and Kate's love story sky-rocketed the viewership of the series, making it the most-watched English series on Netflix of all time. After a successful season 2, the makers and the audience are looking forward to season 3 and the bar has been set higher. The series was renewed for a third and fourth season in April 2021 and we are expecting the former to come out soon. The season is expected to follow in the shoes of the past two seasons and will be based on An Offer From A Gentleman, the third book in the Bridgerton book series written by Julia Quinn.
Who Will Be The Protagonist In Bridgerton Season 3?
The makers of the series are not letting a word out about the new season and we cannot tell for sure which Bridgerton sibling will be featuring this time. However, if we follow the suit then the third season will be based on the third book that tells the love story of Benedict Bridgerton. Played by Luke Thompson, the book tells the tale of a masquerade ball and a mysterious beautiful young lady that captivates Benedict but disappears abruptly. This captivating young maiden is Sophie Beckett, the new house help in the Bridgerton house who sneaks in the ball. Season 3 is all about Benedict's search for Sophie and their blooming romance.
The illegitimate child of the Earl of Penwood, Sophia "Sophie" Beckett never received the love of a real family. His father was distant to her due to his social status and after his death, her stepmother spent all the dowry he left for Sophie and treated her like a servant. Sophie works at the Bridgerton House now and she would not have imagined in her wildest dreams that she would not only be attending an elite ball but also captivate the second Bridgerton sibling.
The makers have not yet released the cast of the new season. They are careful not to leak any spoilers ahead of the show. So for now we know that Luke Thompson will be the male lead this season. However, one thing that is confirmed is that we will see more of Anthony and Kate as a married couple and heads of the family. The shooting for the third season is expected to begin somewhere between June and August 2022.
