Luke Newton thinks Colin and Penelope met in ‘the cutest way possible’
Bridgerton Season 3 is officially happening. The new season will follow the story between friends and lovers of Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington rather than detailing the love story of Benedict. Bridgerton fans know that Penelope has been pining for Colin for some time, but he has only seen her as a friend to her. The new season could return to the moment Penelope met Colin, a story that Luke Newton finds adorable.
The third season of ‘Bridgerton’ moves to the love story of Colin and Penelope
Bridgerton The third season deviates from the order of Julia Quinn’s novels, on which the series is based. Quinn’s third novel, An offer from a gentleman, actually tells the love story of Benedict Bridgerton. Instead, season 3 will follow the novel Romancing Mr. Bridgertonwhich details the history from friends to lovers of Colin and Penelope.
In terms of making a TV show, it actually makes a lot of sense to jump into Colin and Penelope’s romance. Jess Brownell, who will become showrunner for season 3, explained the choice to Variety.
“I feel like, especially in the last season, there are these moments of tension between them where it’s like Colin almost comes to realize that Penelope has feelings for him but doesn’t quite get there,” she said. “Instead of stomping on that dynamic, we wanted to push it into their season. It really seemed like the perfect time to start.
Luke Newton loves the way Penelope and Colin first met
As fans already know, Penelope falls for Colin long before he romantically notices her. The two have been good friends for some time, but Penelope has been in love with Colin from the moment they met.
by Julia Quinn Romancing Mr. Bridgerton opens with a flashback to that same day. Penelope and Colin first meet when she is out walking with her mother and sisters. They stop to talk to Lady Bridgerton and Daphne when Penelope’s cap blows off in a gust of wind right in Colin’s face.
The surprise knocks Colin off his horse, startling Penelope. However, Colin laughs at the whole thing and Penelope falls for him right then. At that time, she is not yet sixteen.
In a Netflix video, Colin actor Luke Newton explained why his character can’t see that Penelope is his true love partner. “Because they met when they were so young, in the cutest way possible. When I was reading the book, it’s such a lovely story, how they met.
“I think there are a lot of things that they can’t really see what’s right in front of him,” Newton continued. “Which is obviously for the fans of the show, very frustrating, and sometimes they take that frustration out on me.”
“Bridgerton” often uses flashbacks to tell his characters’ stories
Bridgerton he’s no stranger to including flashbacks. In the second season, the series showed the horrific moment when Edmund Bridgerton died of a bee sting. Season 1 also included flashbacks to Simon Basset’s childhood.
The cute meeting between Colin and Penelope is an interesting part of their story, and it is very likely that it will be included in Bridgerton Season 3. The third season does not yet have a release date, but it is expected to release on Netflix in 2023. The cast announced that filming for season 3 was underway in the summer of 2022.
