Netflix has unveiled the official trailer for Bridgerton season four. This time, Benedict Bridgerton finally steps into the romantic spotlight. Fans are eager to see the notorious brother’s journey for love and adventure unfold.
Benedict’s Romantic Dilemma
The trailer opens with Benedict Bridgerton, played by Luke Thompson, humorously explaining American football. However, he quickly shifts focus to love, longing, and the excitement of a lavish masquerade ball.
As always, Lady Whistledown, voiced by Julie Andrews, narrates the story. She reveals Benedict’s dilemma: pressured by his formidable mother, Violet Bridgerton, to marry, he insists on charting “a more venturesome course.” Yet fate has other plans, introducing a mysterious woman who captures his heart.
Enter Sophie Baek: A Cinderella Story
Sophie Baek, played by Yerin Ha, is a young woman forced into servitude. She dreams of “one glorious night” beyond her social station. The trailer shows her slipping into disguise for a masquerade, where she and Benedict share an immediate and intoxicating connection. He calls her “the most intriguing person I’ve ever met.”
However, Sophie vanishes into the night, keeping her identity secret. Benedict begins an obsessive search to find the woman he cannot forget. Meanwhile, Sophie fears revealing her true identity could cost her everything.
Romance, Social Divides, and Yearning Glances
If the trailer is any indication, season four promises the same elements fans love: yearning glances, romantic tension, and social divides. As in previous seasons, viewers can expect emotional angst mixed with opulent Regency-era settings.
The new season adapts Julia Quinn’s third novel, An Offer from a Gentleman. It explores Benedict’s love story with all the silk, scandal, and orchestral pop covers the show is known for.
Release Dates for Season 4
Netflix will release season four in two parts. Part one premieres on January 29, 2026, followed by part two on February 26. Fans can anticipate a romantic journey filled with intrigue, masquerades, and unforgettable Bridgerton moments.
