Shondaland, the production company behind 'Bridgerton', and showrunner Jess Brownell have yet to announce which Bridgerton sibling will take the lead in the already-confirmed fourth season. However, it's easy to speculate that it could be Benedict, Eloise (Claudia Jessie), or Francesca (Hannah Dodd).

Netflix has confirmed that 'Bridgerton' has been renewed for a fourth season, but they have not revealed which characters will be the primary focus the first season centered on Daphne Bridgerton's romance with Simon Basset, while the second season focused on Anthony Bridgerton's love story.

The third season, however, deviated from the book order and focused on Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington's relationship. This deviation has led to speculation that the fourth season could spotlight Benedict Bridgerton.

Fans of Netflix's 'Bridgerton' are eagerly anticipating whether there will be a fourth season of the beloved Regency-era drama. The series, produced by Shonda Rhimes' Shondaland, has captivated audiences with its intricate costumes, lush sets, and engaging storylines since it first premiered.

Based on Julia Quinn's popular novels, 'Bridgerton' has consistently delivered romance, intrigue, and drama, becoming a global hit. Recently, Luke Thompson, who plays Benedict Bridgerton, added to the anticipation by sharing his thoughts on the future of his character in the series.

During an interview on 'The View', Thompson expressed his uncertainty about whether his character will lead the fourth season. “The honest answer is, ‘I don’t know,’ but I know it’s so lovely, and one of the best things about TV jobs is you get to really explore a character long-form like that and sort of fill him in slowly," Thompson said.

He continued, “As long as I keep getting to do that,” adding, “Obviously, it’d be great to really dive in at one point, but we’ll have to wait and see.”

While the exact details of 'Bridgerton' Season 4 remain under wraps, the hints from cast members and showrunners suggest that exciting developments are on the horizon. Whether Benedict Bridgerton will lead the next season or another character will take the spotlight, one thing is certain: fans can look forward to more romance, drama, and elegant escapades in the world of 'Bridgerton'.
