According to starJonathan Bailey, the second season of Bridgerton is going to be just as “brilliant” as the first.
The actor, who plays Lord Anthony Bridgerton in the hit Netflix period drama, discussed the show’s second season during a recent interview withBritish Vogue.
“Well, I feel like the campy, plush spectacle of theBridgertonworld is only going to get more pronounced in the best way possible,” said Bailey, 32. “It’s mad, and it’s brilliant. There are also going to be a lot of brilliant characters introduced in this series — and it’s not just Anthony that we’re going to delve into.”
Bailey also teased that there are “loads of little Easter eggs for all of the characters,” and provided one rather cryptic clue — “I’ll say this: watch out for the bees.”
And, while season 1 followed the first book in Quinn’s series — which tracked the romance between Daphne Bridgerton (Phoebe Dynevor) and the Duke of Hastings (Regé-Jean Page) — book two,The Viscount Who Loved Me, follows the quest of Bailey’s Anthony Bridgerton to find his viscountess.
Netflix announced plans for a second season of the series in January, less than a month after the show premiered on the streaming network.
The exciting news was revealed in the form of one of “Lady Whistledown’s society papers,” which began: “The ton are abuzz with the latest gossip, and so it is my honor to impart to you:Bridgertonshall officially return for a second season. I do hope you have stored a bottle of ratafia for this most delightful occasion.”
“The incomparable cast ofBridgertonwill return to production in the Spring of 2021. This author has been reliably informed that Lord Anthony Bridgerton intends to dominate the social season. I will have my pen ready to report on any and all of his romantic activities,” it continued.
