Bridgerton season 4
The third season of Bridgerton is only just behind us. But fans are already ready to swoon over the story of the next brother. Those who have read the Bridgerton book series know that Benedict falls in love with a woman named Sophie Beckett in his book. In the book, written by Julia Quinn, Sophie is also known as ‘the lady in silver’. At the end of the third season, there was already talk of a masked ball. This was probably a huge hint for fans of the books that made it clear that Benedict is the next Bridgerton who will find love. During this ball, Benedict will meet his great love for the first time. The only thing is, Sophie is not a woman of high standing. This promises a lot of good for the new season of the Netflix series. The only pity is that we will have to wait a little longer. There is no release date known for the next season yet.
Yerin Ha as Sophie Beckett
But now comes the most important news: who will be the actress who will play the role of Sophie? The makers of the series have not yet officially confirmed it, but the role of Sophie will be played by Yerin Ha. This Australian-Korean actress will accompany actor Luke Thompson in the fourth season of Bridgerton. She is 29 years old and already has a number of major roles to her name. Previously, Ha played in the series Halo, which was made by director Steven Spielberg. You may also know her from the miniseries Bad Behaviour. But the biggest role that the actress has to her name is her role as the young version of Kasha in Dune: Prophecy.
With Herin taking on the role of Sophie, Shondaland is adding more diversity to the series. Previous seasons have featured many actors of color playing the Bridgertons’ love interests and friends. Herin Ya will be the first major love interest to have an Asian background.
