Bridgerton Season 3 Clip, Episode Titles, and Photos Released by Netflix

Happy Valentine’s Day, indeed, Bridgerton fans!

Netflix and Shondaland hosted a fan event for Season 3 fan event, with the writers and the cast spilling as many teases as possible of what’s to come for the characters when Bridgerton Season 3 Part 1 premieres on Thursday, May 16.

The new look at the season, which comes after the sneak peek released earlier this month, included episode titles, photos, and even a new clip for fans.

Among the panelists were executive producer Shonda Rhimes and Season 3 showrunner Jess Brownell, Romancing Mister Bridgerton author Julia Quinn, the season’s leads Nicola Coughlan and Luke Newton, the queen herself, Golda Rosheuvel, Adjoa Andoh, Claudia Jessie, Luke Thompson, and Martins Imhangbe.

Brownell, Rhimes, and Quinn all shared that they wanted to take care of and do justice to the characters and Colin and Penelope’s love story when it comes to adapting the source material and incorporating fan-favorite moments.

But fans didn’t have to wait long for a tease of which big Romancing Mister Bridgerton scenes made the way onto the screen.

The panel revealed that one of the book scenes they can look forward to seeing play out is the moment Penelope tends to Colin’s cut on his hand. Quinn shared that that scene is one of the first truly intimate scenes the pair gets to share.

Netflix has also revealed a still from that specific scene.

Regarding what else viewers can expect, showrunner Brownell shared more insights on Colin and Penelope’s journeys as a couple and as individuals.

“Colin and Penelope are underdogs in many ways…we get to see these characters step into their power this year, which I think will make a lot of people who have ever had an unrequited crush or felt like an underdog before feel very seen,” Jess Brownell said.

Fans at the panel event were also treated to a reveal of the Bridgerton Season 3 episode titles for all eight episodes. The Season 3 Part 1 premiere will be titled “Out of the Shadows.” 

Among the news about Season 3 is the reveal that Lord Debling, previously announced to be played by Sam Phillips, will be “a strong new suitor” for Penelope and Colin’s romantic rival.

From Coughlan’s description during the panel, it seems like he might be a serious contender.

That should make for some exciting viewing, potentially adding another layer to the love story from Quinn’s book.

The panel concluded with a new clip with a rather interesting exchange between Colin and Penelope, leaving fans with little doubt about where things start with Polin after Bridgerton Season 2.
