How can you watch ‘Bridgerton’ spinoff ‘Queen Charlotte’ for free?
Can’t get enough of Bridgerton? Neither can we! Luckily, Netflix has just the thing to quench our thirst and fill the hole that season 2 left. Queen Charlotte: The Bridgerton Story is arriving soon and we’re absolutely overjoyed by the news. But, will our beloved Queen be able to outshine the light cast by Bridgerton or will the show crash and burn?
Here’s everything you need to know about Bridgerton’s spinoff and how you can watch Queen Charlotte: The Bridgerton Story online.
Regency rewind
Bridgerton graced our screens in 2020 on Netflix and Lady Whistledown filled us in on the goings-on of the ton. We were greeted by glitz, glamor, and spoons (yes, we’re still salivating). In season one, Daphne Bridgerton was the talk of the ton and her journey to becoming the Duchess of Hastings was a love story for the ages.
Bridgerton is based on a series of novels by the same name, written by Julia Quinn. Each novel focuses on a different member of the Bridgerton family. Book one, aptly titled The Duke and I is all about Daphne Bridgerton (Phoebe Dynevor) and her relationship with Regé-Jean Page’s Duke of Hastings.
In season two, we were blessed with a Bridgerton boy and his unconventional love story. Season two is all about Anthony, the Bridgerton family’s eldest brother, who is looking to get married no matter what. This isn’t a game Anthony is playing on love, but to finally get his father’s title, he’s looking for a lady to “wed, bed, and bread”.
The Queen is back
Queen Charlotte is back and we’re taking a look at how she became the baddest on the ton. Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story is gracing our screens and we’re already obsessed. According to the teaser trailer, Netflix is gearing up for yet another steamy romance, but this time it’s between Queen Charlotte & King George.
Screen Rant reports, “Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story wrapped filming in the fall of 2022 and is set to be released in the spring of 2023. There has been no news if the prequel will have a second season but as a limited series, the story may only encompass the six episodes of the season.”
Netflix has announced that the Bridgerton prequel will be released on May 4th, 2023 which is great news for fans. It feels like we’ve been waiting forever for season 3 of Bridgerton! You will be able to stream the prequel limited series on Netflix in a couple months and we’re counting down the days.
Returning characters and cast members are Queen Charlotte (Golda Rosheuvel), Lady Agatha Danbury (Adjoa Andoh), Lady Violet Ledger Bridgerton (Ruth Gemmell), and Brimsley (Hugh Sachs). Set to play the younger versions of those characters are, respectively, India Amarteifio, Arsema Thomas, Connie Jenkins-Grieg, and Sam Clemmett.
“With both young and older versions of the characters slated to appear, there is sure to be some time-jumping. Other new characters in Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story include Princess Augusta (Michelle Fairley), young King George III (Corey Mylchreest), Lord Bute (Richard Cunningham), Adolphus (Tunji Kasim), Vivian Ledger (Katie Brayben), and Lord Ledger (Keir Charles) to round out the main cast of characters,” Screen Rant announced.
We can’t wait to see what the writers have in store and we’re so ready to swoon over a young King George and his romance with the icon that is Queen Charlotte.
