Luke Thompson as Benedict smiling in Bridgerton season 3
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Bridgerton showrunner Jess Brownell addresses Benedict Bridgerton's exploration of his sexuality in season 3. Based on Julia Quinn's Regency romance novel series, the third installment followed the blossoming romance between Penelope Featherington and Colin Bridgerton , as the former friends fall in love.
Benedict’s sexual identity is not a fixed belief for him. In modern terms, he might be described as pansexual, someone for whom gender doesn’t really matter. We’ve talked a lot about Benedict’s fluidity since season one, and I know that it’s something that people picked up on, and it’s something that we wanted to make a stance on and make clear about the character. Because I do think that he’s a character who would naturally be more about connection than he would be about gender.
Currently, it is difficult to pinpoint who will lead season 4 since several characters are positioned in places that can serve their future arcs. Alongside Benedict, Tilley, and Paul's three-way relationship, Bridgerton season 3's ending also saw Francesca meet Michaela Stirling , setting up a queer romance adaptation of When He Was Wicked. Furthermore, Eloise embarks on a journey of self-discovery in Scotland, allowing her to achieve her own romantic development.
Nevertheless, Benedict's journey and broadening of his mind from Tilley's influence has not only given the character room to explore his own sexuality but put him on course to tackle themes present in his novel, An Offer From A Gentleman. With his own love interest, Sophie Beckett, his story tackles defying the boundaries of society, as the pair engage in a relationship that exists beyond where one may reside in the societal hierarchy, by birth or circumstance.
