Bridgerton Season 3 Release Date and Time Slot
By April 2021, the series was renewed for a third and fourth season. Jess Brownell would serve as writer and showrunner for the third and fourth seasons, replacing Van Dusen. As of October 4, 2022, there’s no information on when the next chapter will be released. The only detail we have is that it’s coming and is presently in development. Moreover, we know that Season 2 debuted a little more than a year after season 1. If this is the case, the following chapter might be released sometime in spring 2023.
We would like to highlight that this is just speculation, and the fans should wait for Netlfix to confirm it in the coming months. Moreover, like the last two seasons, and if we take most of the Netflix series into consideration with a bit of speculation, then the new series, Bridgerton Season 3, will have the same premiere time as other shows on the streaming service, which is 12:00 a.m. (PT) or 3:00 a.m. (ET).

Bridgerton Season 3 Production Status
Yes! The third season began principal photography in July 2022, and it is still ongoing. Nicola Coughlan conveys in the clip, quoting, “Bridgerton Season 3 filming has officially begun,” she says before turning to Newton and asking, “You coming in?” Fans of Julia Quinn’s Bridgerton books might be particularly excited to see this playful exchange since it’s a nod to Polin’s famously steamy carriage scene from Romancing Mister Bridgerton.

Bridgerton Season 3 Plot
Here is the opening of Episode 301, Out of the Shadows, written by new Bridgerton showrunner Jess Brownell and directed by Tricia Brock.
Dearest gentle reader,
We’ve been apart for far too long. At last, London’s smart set has made its return, and so too has this author. As the season begins, the question on everyone’s mind, of course, is, which newly minted debutante will shine the brightest. The crop this year proves to be rather dazzling indeed. Unfortunately, not every young lady can attract the light.
Bridgerton Season 3 finds Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) as she’s finally given up her crush on Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) after hearing him disparage her to his friends last season. Instead, she’s focusing on finding a husband who will respect her independence so she may continue her double life as Lady Whistledown, away from her mother and sisters.
Due to her lack of confidence, however, her search doesn’t go so well. Meanwhile, Colin is back from his summer travels with a new look and major swagger. He is disheartened to learn that Penelope, the one person who always appreciated him as he was, is giving him the cold shoulder. Eager to win back her friendship, Colin helps Penelope boost her confidence so as to attract the perfect husband.
But when his lessons start working a little too well, Colin is faced with figuring out what his true feelings for his friend really are. Complicating matters for Penelope is her rift with Eloise (Claudia Jessie), who has found a new friend in a very unlikely place, while Penelope’s growing presence in the ton makes it all the more difficult to keep her Lady Whistledown alter ego a secret.
Bridgerton Season 3 Cast Updates
There have been some major cast updates for the new season as Bailey and Ashley were announced to return for the third season as Viscount and Viscountess Bridgerton, exploring their married lives and responsibilities as leaders of the eponymous family.

Moreover, Chandran will not return as Edwina for the rest of the season. Daniel Francis, Sam Phillips, and James Phoon were cast in unspecified roles for the third season in July 2022.
According to Entertainment Weekly, Three new gentlemen, played by Daniel Francis, Sam Phillips, and James Phoon, have joined the series. Penelope will undoubtedly have her hands full with suitors. The following are their official character descriptions are as follows:
Francis will portray Marcus Anderson, a charismatic presence who lights up any room he enters, attracting the notice of certain matriarchs in the ton—and the ire of others. Might he be a potential suitor for Penelope? Penelope’s secret identity and Eloise’s outspokenness won’t be the only eccentricities this season. Phillips is Lord Debling, described as a genial lord with unusual interests. But wealth and a title excuse nearly everything, so he’ll have no problem catching the eye of eligible young ladies. And lest you think Bridgerton doesn’t have enough pretty faces, Phoon joins as the handsome yet dim-witted Harry Dankworth.
