Jonathan Bailey Confirms Anthony’s Return in Bridgerton Season 4

Despite his rising movie career, Emmy nominee Jonathan Bailey (Wicked) has officially confirmed he will be returning as Anthony in Netflix‘s Bridgerton Season 4. After finding romance in Season 2, Anthony’s role in the latest season was shorter, as he only appeared in a few episodes. His Season 3 storyline ended with him and Kate going to India for their first baby’s birth.

What did Jonathan Bailey say about Bridgerton Season 4?

During a recent interview with Good Morning America, Bailey revealed that he hasn’t read the scripts for Bridgerton Season 4 yet. However, he teased that they already have a target date for the production star of the next installment, which will now be led by Luke Thompson’s Benedict Bridgerton.

“Well, I look forward to reading the scripts. No, I mean we’re gonna follow the stories,” He shared (via X). “The thing about Bridgerton that is so brilliant is that there’s so many different ways you can fall in love as humans, and that’s what the show will explore, and obviously being the older brother, I’m gonna be there to support the youngsters as we go.”

He continued, “I have a couple of weeks etched out in my schedule for returning, so I’m really excited. And Luke Thompson is gonna be stunning. And who knows who his love interest is gonna be?”

The ensemble cast also includes Nicola Coughlan as Penelope, Luke Newton as Colin, Golda Rosheuvel as Queen Charlotte, Claudia Jessie as Eloise, Hannah Dodd as Francesca, Ruth Gemmell as Lady Violet Bridgerton, Adjoa Andoh as Lady Danbury, Polly Walker as Lady Portia Featherington, Bessie Carter as Prudence, Simone Ashley as Kate, Florence Hunt as Hyacinth, Will Tilston as Gregory, Harriet Cains as Philippa, and Jessica Madsen as Cressida Cowper, with Julie Andrews as the voice of Lady Whistledown.
