When Bridgerton returns to Netflix, Lady Whistledown will once again record her gossip column’s tales of romance, sex, and intrigue as normal. Lord Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey) and his search for a viscountess are at the centre of this Regency-era drama from Netflix.

Season 2 of the Netflix hit will have a greater role for Francesca, Lady Violet’s sixth eldest child, who was mostly absent from Season 1 until the last episode.

Due to a previous commitment to another Netflix series, Ruby Stokes, who portrays Francesca, was forced to quit the project after filming only three episodes since she was already scheduled to appear in the forthcoming Lockwood & Co.

When his sister Daphne (Phoebe Dynevor) began dating the Hot Duke, Simon (Regé-Jean Page), things became complicated. Unfortunately, Page will not be returning to the series. In the meanwhile, viewers may enjoy Anthony’s advances on the recently arrived debutante Edwina Sharma (Charithra Chandran).

However, he encounters a snag – her elder sister Kate (Simone Ashley). Kate sets out to keep Edwina safe from the infamous rake, but she finds herself falling for him instead!

Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan), the genuine author of Lady Whistledown, has been revealed to us, but is it possible for her close friend Eloise (Claudia Jessie) and her crush Colin (Luke Newton) to stay unaware of her identity? Or to Queen Charlotte (Golda Rosheuvel), who is adamant about learning the truth about her true identity?

Netflix premieres the second season of Bridgerton on Friday (March 25, 2022). It is scheduled to go live at 3 a.m. ET.

Trailers for the second season of Bridgerton have been released

Season 2 of Bridgerton begins with Anthony’s journey to locate a viscountess in the full-length season 2 trailer (as announced by his mother, LOL). Edwina, the Sharma sister who is the youngest, seems to be his exclusive focus. He quickly loses interest, though, when Kate, the vivacious older sister, comes around.

Lady Whistledown has been honing her skills throughout the off-season. The elite should be on the lookout! There’s also a new teaser for Bridgerton season 2:

The cast of the second season of Bridgerton

Season 2 of Bridgerton will reunite the majority of the show’s original cast members. Focus will shift to Jonathan Bailey as Anthony Bridgerton, the rogue young viscount who will play the lead role in the next series.

Lady Whistledown writes in her letter that “we’ll miss Simon’s presence onscreen, but he will always be a member of the Bridgerton family,” referring to season 1 star Regé-Jean Page, who played Simon, Duke of Hastings.

For the first time in the book series, Rupert Young has been cast as Jack. A Bridgerton mystery connects his persona to a prominent London family. Calam Lynch will portray Theo Sharpe, a character that has been referred to as a “savage.” “Assistant to the printer As an academic who advocates for the rights of all people, he’s more than simply a working-class guy.”

Francesca is characterised as “contained” in literature. In Season 2, for example, when she softly chastises her elder sister Eloise for not leaping at the opportunity to hold their nephew August, there are hints of something worse to come. When she joins her brothers and mother in spying on Eloise before her debut, she laughs heartily. By the end of Episode 7, Francesca is visibly missing, and it is never revealed why she was away.
