Ahead of Bridgerton season 4 release, Luke Thompson talks to us about its global popularity, becoming audience’s new muse and his chemistry with Yerin Ha
Actor Luke Thompson has been a part of the world of Bridgerton for the first three seasons, and now on the fourth season of the globally popular Netflix show, he is set to take centre stage. The new season focus on the romance between Benedict, played by him, and actor Yerin Ha’s Sophie, and Luke Thompson is ecstatic about coming to the forefront of the series.

Ask him if he feels any nervousness of leading the show, having been a supporting character for all previous seasons and he tells us, “It’s only excitement, actually. I was very lucky to get probably the most generous timing in terms of getting used to the world of Bridgerton and getting used to filming on camera as well as I had not done that much work on screen before. The world of being on a set is so complex and it takes a while to make friends with it. So, by the time of season 4, it was perfect for me to take the lead and for what was going to come next. I felt very lucky to be in a position where I just felt excited. I didn’t feel any nervousness, I was just ready and looking forward to the adventure and to jump into it.”
