Bridgerton Season 4: Netflix Accidentally Reveals 2026 Release Plans Early

by

Netflix mistakenly let slip the release date for Bridgerton Season 4, and it’s happening sooner than many thought. Fans have been eagerly discussing when the new season would arrive, particularly since Season 3 ended in June 2024. It’s important to remember that there were significant delays between the first three seasons of Bridgerton, with Season 3 premiering nearly two years after the finale of Season 2.

According to a report from Forbes in April 2025, the production of Bridgerton Season 4 experienced some setbacks, which caused a delay in its release. Thankfully, filming for Season 4 finished in June 2025, so an announcement about Bridgerton‘s return to Netflix should be coming soon. Adding to the anticipation, a novel connected to Bridgerton Season 4 is scheduled to be released on January 6, 2026, leading fans to speculate that the new season might also debut in January.

Netflix Netherlands mistakenly revealed possible release dates for Bridgerton Season 4 when it shared a new poster showing Yerin Ha as Sophie and Luke Thompson as Benedict. The post was quickly taken down after the error.

The poster indicates that Season 4 will be released in two parts. The initial episodes are scheduled to launch on January 29, 2026, with the remaining episodes arriving on February 6, 2026. However, Netflix hasn’t officially confirmed these dates yet.

The announcement of Bridgerton Season 4’s January 2026 release date follows the pattern established by the show – new seasons typically arrive about two years apart. The first season launched in December 2020, and Season 2 became available on Netflix in March 2022. Most recently, Bridgerton Season 3 (which was released in two volumes) was a hit, premiering on May 16, 2024, with the second part arriving on June 13, 2024.

A noteworthy detail from this leak reveals that Bridgerton Season 4 will also be released in two parts, a common practice for Netflix lately. The streaming service likely used this approach to build excitement and create a lot of talk around the show, possibly ending the first part with a dramatic cliffhanger to keep viewers eager for Part 2.

Season 4 of Bridgerton is inspired by Julia Quinn’s novels and centers on the romance between Benedict Bridgerton and Sophie Baek, also known as the “Lady in Silver.” The cast includes Luke Thompson, Yerin Ha, Katie Leung, Michelle Mao, along with returning favorites Jonathan Bailey, Simone Ashley, and Nicola Coughlan.

Bridgerton Season 4‘s January 2026 Release Means a Trailer Will Arrive Soon

Promotion for Bridgerton Season 4 is starting to increase, particularly since Netflix shared a poster featuring the Lady in Silver in September 2025. Along with the poster reveal, Netflix also announced that Season 4 will consist of eight episodes.

Although we haven’t seen a trailer yet, Netflix Netherlands briefly shared-and then removed-a poster hinting at a Season 4 release date. This suggests that the first look at the new season, possibly including footage, will be available online soon, potentially this month (October 2025). We also anticipate the trailer will officially confirm the expected January 2026 premiere dates for Season 4.

This would generate excitement for Bridgerton Season 4 as we get closer to the expected release in January 2026. The new trailer might give fans a first look at the developing relationship between Benedict Bridgerton and Sophie Baek, combining a traditional love story with realistic details. It could also share news about the other couples featured in previous Bridgerton seasons.

Everything suggests that Bridgerton Season 4 will be just as popular as the earlier seasons, which is exciting news because there are still many more stories from the books that can be turned into episodes.
