Benedict is a charmer and one of the show’s most loved characters. Because of his vivacious nature, fans are excited that it is finally his turn to find love. For the unversed, Nicola plays Penelope Bridgerton, whose love story with Colin Bridgerton was the focus of the Netflix show’s last season. The actress was nominated at the SAG Awards 2025 in the category of Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Drama Series.
At the SAG Awards 2025 red carpet, Nicola Coughlan addressed the upcoming Bridgerton Season 4 in her interview with Deadline. She called the season ‘very romantic’ and echoed what the makers had previously revealed as a ‘Cinderella Story.’ She further added that the season would also showcase the downstairs story of the road, what ‘goes on with the maids and everything underpinning.’ When the host asked about her future in the show, she sweetly mentioned that it’s about Luke Thompson and Yerin Ha’s characters. She was beaming with excitement while talking about it.
The netizens also praised her for how she uplifted her co-stars from the show. Meanwhile, Nicola looked stunning in a light sea green outfit with edgy black leather gloves. Check out her brief interview here:
Luke Newton also spoke about Bridgerton Season 4 and told Variety, “It’s great fun this season. You know, Nic and I, we get to explore happily married life. We have a baby…” He also mentioned that this season will be different from the previous one and might be because of what Nicola Coughlan said about the story showcasing not just the high-class members of the society but the other as well. He added, “It’s something really different from what we’ve explored previously in the show… so I can’t wait to see the bits I’ve not been involved in.”
At the end of Bridgerton season 3, we saw Penelope and Colin with their kid, and addressing that, Luke continued, “It’s a really good combination. Probably more like Nic, I think he does look like Nic. And he’s got the red hair… he has to have that. I think that was a request. But yeah, and there’s just this beautiful love story this season. I’m so excited for people to see it.” He also mentioned that he is flying back to resume filming.
The Bridgerton cast was nominated at the SAG Awards 2025 in Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series and lost it this award season favorite, Shogun. The 31st Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards live-streamed on Netflix.
