03 Mar 2026

The popular Netflix series Bridgerton could potentially see the return of its original stars, Regé-Jean Page and Phoebe Dynevor, according to the showrunner.

In a recent interview with People, showrunner Jess Brownell expressed her desire to have all the lead actors back for future seasons.

"I would love to one day have all of the leads come back," she said.

'Daphne and Anthony...are such paternal/maternal figures'
Future plans

Brownell believes that the return of Page and Dynevor would be significant for the show, especially in light of Hyacinth and Gregory's stories.

She said, "Daphne and Anthony, and their partners, are such paternal/maternal figures for those younger kids."

"So I would be very interested in trying to get some of those previous leads back for the later run of the show," she added.

Conversations about Page's return haven't happened yet
Discussion pending

Despite her enthusiasm, Brownell has not yet spoken to Page about a possible return.

She stated, "I haven't spoken to Regé about that. The conversations haven't happened, but the ideas are there."

Meanwhile, Anthony and his wife Kate have played a key role in the series since heading Season 2.

They played a larger role in Season 3 as Colin Bridgerton found love in his friend Penelope Featherington.

Why was Anthony absent in Season 4 Part 1?
Character development

Anthony and Kate missed part 1 of Season 4 as they were in India for the birth of their first son, Edmund.

Their absence served a greater purpose for Benedict Bridgerton's character development.

Brownell explained, "For Benedict in particular, it was important for Anthony to be elsewhere in part 1."

"Benedict [had] a moment to struggle with the weight of being the second son who's filling in for the viscount."
