Netflix has released a first-look at the second season of Bridgerton, the hit Regency-era romantic drama.
Inspired by Julia Quinn’s series of Bridgerton novels, season two shifts the focus onto Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey), who swore off romance in the season one finale.
In the first-look clip released during TUDUM, Kate Sharma (Simone Ashley) meets Anthony – and it’s safe to say their interaction is… frosty.
Phoebe Dynevor will return to the role of Daphne in a supporting role. Meanwhile, Rupert Evans has joined the cast as Edmund Bridgerton and Sex Education star Simone Ashley will make her debut as Kate Sharma, Anthony’s potential love interest.
The series, which originally debuted last Christmas, has received rave reviews from viewers and critics alike, including our five-star Bridgerton review.

Showrunner Van Dusen also teased season two, telling Deadline that he’s currently editing the first two episodes.
“I don’t think people are going to be ready,” he said. “It’s everything people love so much about the first season but more.”
