‘Bridgerton' Season 4 to get two-part release on Netflix in early 2026

Good news from the ton! The much-awaited fourth season of the hit Netflix franchise “Bridgerton” is coming sooner than we think!

On social media, Netflix announced that "Bridgerton" Season 4 will premiere on the streaming platform in two parts. The first four episodes will be released in 2026 on January 29, followed by the remaining four on February 26.

Netflix also released a short teaser featuring a scene between its lead characters, Benedict Bridgerton (Luke Thompson) and Sophie Baek (Yein Ha), meeting on a staircase during a masquerade ball. 

In the clip, their hands briefly touch as Benedict descends and Sophie ascends the stairs. The teaser also shows Benedict offering his hand to Sophie for a dance, followed by a shot of Sophie’s gloves left on the floor, a visual nod to Cinderella’s iconic glass slipper moment.

Previously, showrunner Jess Brownell teased that the fourth season will be "extremely juicy.”

Based on the books by Julia Quinn, "Bridgerton" follows eight close-knit siblings of the powerful Bridgerton family as they attempt to find love. Season 1 followed Daphne, Season 2 followed Anthony, and Season 3 followed Colin.

In the previous season, Filipino actors James Bradwell and Martin Sarreal played the roles of Lord Basilio and Lord Barnell.
