Guess which character he auditioned for?
The actress of ‘The Bridgertons’, Nicholas Coughlanhas revealed that he once auditioned for another big Netflix hit: ‘Stranger Things’.
The 35-year-old actress auditioned for the third season of the series, to play the role of Robin Buckley, Steve’s friend and partner in the ice cream parlor (the role that ultimately fell to another young performer). “I auditioned to play Robin, Maya Hawke got it. She was so much better than I would have been,” Coughlan told BuzzFeed.
The actress, who we have also seen as one of the protagonists of the hilarious series ‘Derry Girls’, also available on Netflix, went on to offer other actors some really useful advice when it comes to not getting all the roles they are for. audition “It’s a good lesson for the actors: look at the things they didn’t receive because they will fully understand that they are not personal.“. He further added: “You are perfect for some things and not for others“, he continued.
The actress who plays Penelope Featherington on ‘The Bridgertons’, aka Lady Whistledown, as revealed right at the end of the first season, recently opened up about her own love story and sex scenes on the show.
“I think when I signed on for this series, which is based on the books, I already knew their love story would come at some point, but it felt like a moment in the very distant future. And I already know his love interest, it’s Colin Bridgerton.“.
Coughlan recalled when she and her co-star luke newton, who plays Colin, used to talk about it, but it’s gotten scarier as time goes on. “Luke and I used to joke about it all the time, and then it gets progressively less funny and more intimidating as time goes on (…) I’m really interested in how it’s going to play out because she’s quite modern in many ways, she is a business woman. She takes her career very seriously, but she also wants love, she also wants marriage“.
Speaking of future scenes between Penelope and Colin, Coughlan has decided to approach the producers to ask them to shoot a more tame version. “I think genuinely, and I’m not kidding, I’m going to ask Shondaland for a special cut for the whole family. Because I think it’s pretty embarrassing to see the scenes where I’m not like that.i“.
The first two seasons of ‘The Bridgertons’ are available on Netflix. As for ‘Stranger Things’, the fourth season will arrive on Netflix, according to what its creators have said, divided into two parts: the first on May 27, and the second on July 1.
