‘The Bridgertons’: everything we know about the ‘spin-off’ of the series

With the success that ‘The Bridgertons’ continues to reap, one of the most addictive series on Netflix, it was a matter of time until some kind of spinoff. And so it has been: Netflix is ​​preparing a prequel to the series in which he will return to the past to tell the stories (specifically, the love stories) of some of the characters we already know. They are the Bridgerton matriarch, Violet Bridgerton, and the revered Lady Danbury and Queen Charlotte..

The second season of ‘The Bridgertons’ has become one of the best premieres in Netflix history. In just one weekend! The series has managed to accumulate 193 million minutes in viewings around the world, a starting figure historically only surpassed by ‘The paper house’. Of course, these adaptations of Julia Quinn’s novels have found their audience and are already preparing to continue expanding their universe.

Beyond what the third season of ‘The Bridgertons’ has in store for us, which is already underway, we are going to compile in this article all we know about spinoff. And it is that, although it does not even have an official title yet, we already know very juicy details of the synopsis and also the main cast of the production, which mixes familiar faces with new signings. Will it also be one of the best Netflix series to watch as a couple?

‘The Bridgertons’, spinoff: What will the prequel be about?

The prequel to ‘The Bridgertons’ will tell the youth of Queen Charlotte, Lady Danbury and Violet Bridgerton, in a London somewhat different from the one we have known in the series but with characters that will be very familiar to us. Of course, we expect to see cameos in each episode of the younger versions of certain characters we already know, from Portia Featherington to perhaps Maria Sheffield (or Lady Maria Sharma, as we have known her in the second season). What we know is that there are no books to be based on, and from which to distance oneself: we already know that the differences between series and novel of ‘The Bridgertons’ are considerable.

As reported by Netflix, The series will follow, on the one hand, the story of how the young Charlotte is forced to marry King George of England against her will., and when he arrives in London he realizes that the royal family is not exactly what he expected. We will see her dealing with palace affairs, and we also hope that she will fall in love with her eccentric husband, since today in the series it has been repeated a lot how what they shared was a true love story. But beware, a princess dowager Augusta will do everything possible to ensure that her son becomes monarch.

In the series we imagine that we will see the relationship between the queen and Lady Danbury grow, who seem to have a great relationship of trust today. In fact, the synopsis of the prequel advances that Agatha Danbury will find her place in society thanks precisely to the arrival of Carlota. And Lady Bridgerton? We will have to see how she fits into this whole story, and if perhaps we will see how she falls in love with Viscount Bridgerton or perhaps the childhood of Anthony, Benedict, Colin, Daphne and her company.

The main cast members have already been confirmed, which, apparently, will feature both the actresses we already know and their younger versions.
