The other half of Bridgerton Season 3 is knocking on the doors. It is about to get real complicated for the third couple in the Bridgerton narrative. Now that Penelope Featherington has secured the proposal of her dreams, she has to deal with hiding her identity from the third Bridgerton child, Colin. However, even before all this drama unfolds on the screen, there is some speculation about who the next couple will be in the Bridgerton world after Penelope and Colin.

The Netflix original’s showrunner has recently come forward, giving a peek into what they are planning for Bridgerton Season 4.

Showrunner Jess Brownell recently stopped for a chat with The Hollywood Reporter at Wednesday night’s U.K. premiere of Bridgerton Season 3, Part Two. Brownell provided a rough timeline for when Season 4 will be completed and available for viewers on Netflix. The makers are trying to "speed up" the production process of Season 4, but it will take at least eight months to finish filming alone, followed by a lengthy post-production phase. 

According to Brownell, therefore, viewers should not expect season 4 to grace the screens for at least two years. While Brownell tried her best to be discreet about the storyline for the next season, she assured that it is some of her and the writers' room's “best work” so far. She also hinted that one of the fanbases will be particularly pleased with the fourth season. Nonetheless, there is one way fans might be able to guess what season 4 has in store.

Jess Brownell, earlier this year, gave an exclusive interview to Town and Country. Although, much like all the other creators, she was tight-lipped about which Bridgerton sibling would take the helm of the Netflix series, she hinted that the answer would be in front of the viewers by the end of Season 3.

There are some clues at the end of Season 3 about where we're headed,” said the showrunner. The fourth season is rumored to start filming as Season 3 releases in its entirety, that is, June 2024. Hence, it is time to put on the detective hat to catch the subtle clues sprinkled throughout Season 3.
