Bridgerton, one of Netflix’s biggest hits, has been in production for its fourth season since September 2024. Although not officially confirmed to have wrapped, the cast and crew hosted a grand wrap party in May 2025, and evidence is that the majority of the cast have now long concluded filming in the new season, confirmed for 2026. Here’s what we know about the filming wrap and all 12 new supporting characters set to feature in Season 4.
As mentioned, season 4 has had an extensive production cycle. Filming for the new season began in late September and was initially scheduled to wrap up in late April 2025, according to production resources.
While the official Bridgerton accounts have yet to officially confirm filming has wrapped in any capacity, evidence suggests that a wrap party was held in early May, as documented by eagle-eyed fans on Reddit who spotted various crew members posting from the official wrap party, and a few equally eagle-eyed fans on Instagram. Additionally, we’ve seen gifts being sent to crew members from Netflix in celebration of the completion of Bridgerton Season 4. There is some conflicting evidence, again thanks to eagle-eyed fans, that some smaller production has still been underway as of early June, but for the most part, filming is done.
Meanwhile, we have some casting news to share. Although the main new additions to its cast were announced months ago, we have more to share with new supporting characters and actors/actresses. We should caution that many of these roles are very small, with some even considered to be in extra territory, but we still thought it’d be interesting to compile the list of new names we’ve spotted.
New cast members of Bridgerton Season 4
Francesca Lara Gordon, Fiona Marr, Simon Ludders, Hersha Verity, Adam Hashmi, and Karl James-Wilson
- Francesca Lara Gordon as Virginia (Netflix confirms this is a guest actor)
- Fiona Marr as Irma
- Simon Ludders as Humboldt
- Hersha Verity as Lady Dillingham
- Adam Hashmi as Lord Adams
- Karl James-Wilson as Constable Turner
- James Vaughan as Dr Lewiston
- Fred Woodley Evans as Hendricks
- Alejandra Deane as Miss Alvarez
- Susan Brown as Mrs Crabtree
- Rini Baweja as an Indian princess
- Lady Divine is an extra
Most of these roles are either recurring or episodic, with the majority appearing in one to three or four episodes in the new season.
Additionally, Sophie Lamont will return in the recurring role of Celia. Lamont has appeared in Season 3 and Queen Charlotte, but has only been credited as a maid. Now her character has a name and seems to have been promoted to a recurring role in the new season.
While Netflix hasn’t announced an official release date for Season 4, we at least know it’s coming sometime in 2026, in addition to the fact that seasons 5 and 6 are already in the works.
