Benedict, the second-eldest Bridgerton brother, is loath to settle down -- until he meets a captivating Lady in Silver (or -- spoiler alert! -- as book fans will know her, Sophie) at his mother's masquerade ball, as per The Hollywood Reporter.

Season three of the show, which aired this summer and was led by Coughlan and Newton's "Polin," as it is known among the stans, smashed records as one of the streaming service's most watched shows.

Showrunner Jess Brownell told The Hollywood Reporter in June that it'll be a two-year wait before the season four airs. "We are working to try and put the seasons out more quickly, but they do take eight months to film and then they have to be edited, and then they have to be dubbed into every language," she said. "And the writing takes a very long time as well, so we're kind of on a two-year pace, we're trying to speed up, but somewhere in that range." ‘Bridgerton Season 4’: Netflix Show To Revolve Around Benedict Bridgerton’s Romantic Tale With Mysterious ‘Lady in Silver’ (Watch Video).

Season 4 of Bridgerton is set to have eight episodes. The drama, adapted from Julia Quinn's books and produced by Shonda Rhimes' master company Shondaland, also stars Claudia Jessie, Golda Rosheuvel, Adjoa Andoh and Ruth Gemmell.
