Netflix's 'Bridgerton' Season 4 Set For 2026 Release; Season 5 & 6 Confirmed
In a recent announcement, the streaming giant confirmed that the hit series' fourth season will air in 2026. Unfortunately, no exact date was shared. However, in even more exhilarating news, Netflix has also announced that the series will continue with Seasons 5 and 6, ensuring the Bridgerton family saga will carry on for several more years.
'Bridgerton' is a regency-era romance Netflix show based on the well-loved book series published by Julia Quinn, where the setting takes place in London, and it follows eight siblings from a prestigious and wealthy family. Each season has eight episodes that explore the romance of one specific sibling and their respective couple, with several side stories.
Since 'Bridgerton' has taken decisive liberty in terms of which book from Julia Quinn's book series each season is based on, the fourth season will be based on the third book: 'An Offer From A Gentleman'. With the sneak peek, it's revealed that the main focus of the season will be on Benedict Bridgerton, the second son, and Sophie Beckett, a woman born of nobility but reduced to the title of a servant due to circumstance.
Netizens can expect a story where the two main characters are forced to challenge and question the societal expectations of their respective classes and statuses. Furthermore, a few new additions to the cast have the potential to create conflicts within the series.
With the majority of the previous seasons being favourites to many 'Bridgerton' fans, it has so far been well received among netizens, some even frustrated that it isn't coming out sooner. We don't doubt that Season 4 will be one to enjoy. Are you also looking forward to the new season?

#SHOWBIZ: South Korean actor Song Young-kyu found dead at 55
SEOUL: South Korean actor Song Young-kyu, aged 55, was found dead in a parked car in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province, on Monday morning, according to police. The authorities have stated there are no signs of foul play and an investigation is underway, the Korea Herald reported. They plan to interview his family to better understand the circumstances of his death. A veteran actor with a career spanning three decades, Song was well-known for his supporting role as a tough squad chief in the 2019 box office hit Extreme Job. His international recognition grew with appearances in popular streaming series like Netflix's Narco-Saints and Disney+'s Big Bet, both released in 2022. The actor's career had recently come under intense scrutiny following a drunk-driving incident on June 19. Police revealed that Song had been arrested after driving approximately 5km in Yongin with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08 per cent, which is above the legal limit for a driver's licence revocation. The case had been passed on to prosecutors, pending an indictment. In the wake of this incident, Song was swiftly removed from two high-profile dramas currently in production—ENA's The Defects and SBS' The Winning Try—as well as the stage play Shakespeare in Love. This swift industry response is common in South Korea, where public figures are held to strict moral standards.

The renowned opera singer recently appeared on a talk show where he talked about life after his fourth cancer diagnosis. Law Kar Ying revealed his diagnosis during an interview in May 2025. The actor was first diagnosed with stage three liver cancer in 2004, and later had part of his liver removed to save his life. Ten years later, doctors discovered a 2cm tumour in his liver during a routine medical checkup. Later in 2019, Law Kar Ying was diagnosed with prostate cancer. However, Law Kar Ying revealed on the talk show that his savings have depleted after years of battling cancer. During the interview, the 'A Chinese Odyssey' actor admitted to never having insurance because he doesn't believe in them. Therefore, all his medical expenses, including his surgeries to remove his tumours, were paid for with his savings. The show host also asked if his wife, renowned Hong Kong star Liza Wang (汪明荃), has provided him with any financial support throughout his many cancer battles. In response, the actor said, 'I have never asked my wife for help. I don't need her help. Don't ever tell her about it. She hasn't asked to help either because she knows I have savings.' However, Law Kar Ying quipped that he would be happy if his wife were willing to help with his medical expenses. During the interview, the star also candidly spoke about his plans to forgo chemotherapy and radiotherapy for his recent cancer diagnosis. He previously mentioned he won't undergo the treatments because of his old age. He said, 'The cancer is no longer controllable. What can I do? Eight years from now, I'll be in my eighties. After chemotherapy, I'll be half-human, half-ghost. What's the point of living like that?' In the comments, netizens praised Law Kar Ying's positive attitude toward his health issues. Many also extended well wishes for the actor, hoping he'll beat cancer for the fourth time. We also wish all the best for Law Kar Ying and his health.
