Daniel Francis, James Phoon, and Sam Phillips are the newest cast members joining the show this season.

Bridgerton is based on the best-selling novel series written by Julia Quinn. Shonda Rhimes, the creator of Grey's Anatomy, produces the show through her firm Shondaland. The show turned out to be one of the most well-liked original productions from the streaming behemoth after its 2020 debut.

Part of the Season 3 synopsis reads, “Eager to win back her friendship, Colin offers to mentor Penelope in the ways of confidence to help her find a husband this season. But when his lessons start working a little too well, Colin must grapple with whether his feelings for Penelope are truly just friendly.”
