Overview
- Simone Ashley reaffirmed on Monday, April 13, on The Louis Theroux Podcast that she will clear her schedule to return to Bridgerton when asked.
- She credited co-star Jonathan Bailey’s example, noting he flew between Toronto and London while filming Wicked to keep his Bridgerton commitment.
- The series rotates which sibling leads each season, and showrunner Jess Brownell said sending Kate and Anthony abroad created space for others and fit the actors’ schedules.
- Brownell has also signaled that Kate is intended to play a larger role in a future season, with interest in featuring her during Eloise’s storyline if timing allows.
- One outlet reported a season 5 renewal, possible filming outside London, and a tentative 2027–2028 window, which remains unconfirmed by Netflix in these articles.
