Bridgerton Season 3’s trailer was released a few days back, sending the fans of this amazing show into a frenzy. This time, the story would focus on Penelope Featherington, played by actress Nicola Coughlan. Ahead of the show’s premiere, showrunners Jess Brownell and Nicola opened up about more LGBTQIA+ representation on the show.
Before Joss, American television producer and screenwriter Chris Van Dusen was the showrunner for the show’s first two seasons. Chris was also associated with the long-running show Grey’s Anatomy from 2005 to 2012. Meanwhile, Joss is best known for his Emmy-nominated series Inventing Anna. The American historical drama is based on the book series by Julia Quinn and is set in the competitive world of the Regency era in the early 1800s. The series’ popularity led to a spin-off series, Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story.
Bridgerton Season 3 showrunner Joss Brownell sat for an interview with Pride and shared his plans to represent the LGBTQIA+ community. Joss explains that the show is all about love in its many forms. Hence it would be the right thing to bring queer love to the foreground and tell queer stories. He said, “I want to see more queer joy on my screens, and that was definitely a priority for me when I stepped into the showrunner role.”
