Bridgerton Season 4 Plot: Eloise Or Benedict- The Next Leading Bridgerton?
Following the book series, Benedict Bridgerton, the third brother, should be in line. However, Shonda Rhimes is known to mix things up, so she might choose Eloise to lead the pack. Benedict’s love story with Sophie had already been delayed, so it will make sense to return to him.
However, Eloise (Claudia Jessie) is also a frontrunner after playing the main character for several seasons. Eloise’s friendship with Penelope is also at stake in season 3, so her storyline could continue into the next season. To Sir Phillip, With Love, the fifth book in the franchise reintroduces Phillip (Chris Fulton) as he develops a connection with Eloise.
Francesca (Hannah Dodd) and her book, When He Was Wicked, are also worth looking into after the character was recast. With Dodd taking over the role following Ruby Stokes’ departure, Francesca is featured more in season 3, preparing her to be the lead. New Showrunner Jess Brownell did say that the hint about who the lead is in season 4 is towards the end of season 4.

Bridgerton Season 4 Release Update
Showrunner Jess Brownell, season 4, began production in April 2024. Filming has not yet begun. She told a news portal, “We don’t know when it’s gonna drop,” Brownell told Refinery29. “We’re still making sure that we write the best possible script that we can before we start production.
