Bridgerton and Netflix are a gift that keeps on giving which brings us to their new adventure Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story. This upcoming royal series will focus on the story of Queen Charlotte, as the title suggests, and will serve as a prequel to the Bridgerton series that is currently on-going. Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story will also be a spin-off of sorts, because it doesn’t directly impact the current Bridgerton timeline, but only gives us a glimpse into the some of the characters that we have witnessed, and how their story began.
Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story is set to be a limited series, and will be written by Shonda Rhimes, and that already makes it more than promising. Netflix has a lot of making up to do after canceling some of your favorite shows, and if that means a spin-off series of one of their more popular endeavours right now, then we are excited about it! Keep reading this article to find out everything you need to know about Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, from the plot to the cast to the release date and more:

Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story will focus on Charlotte’s origin story, and here is the official synopsis of the upcoming limited series:
“Centred on Queen Charlotte’s rise to prominence and power, this Bridgerton-verse prequel tells the story of how the young Queen’s marriage to King George sparked both a great love story and a societal shift, creating the world of the Ton inherited by the characters in Bridgerton.”
King George and Queen Charlotte were the ones who aimed to create a more modern and equal world where people of all race, colour and gender were treated equally. Of course, none of that happened overnight and Queen Charlotte had to go through to accomplish what she wanted to, and that’s the story we will witness in Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story. It is time to take a step back to the very beginning, and see how everything came into being in Bridgerton.
Not a lot has been revealed about the little detailed subplots that we will witness in Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, but we do know that this story will be uplifting for people all across the world who are in a constant battle of trying to fight for power which is rightfully theirs. We are very excited for Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, even more so because of the cast, which we will talk about in the next section of the article.
The focus will remain on Queen Charlotte in Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, since her name is right there in the title. India Amarteifio will be playing the role of young Queen Charlotte in Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story. India has previously appeared in The Evermoor Chronicles, Gangsta Granny, and Military Wives. At 21, she is still finding her place in the movie and television industry, and her role as Charlotte will most definitely be her biggest role so far. We can’t wait to see what India Amarteifio has in store for us. While she will be young Queen Charlotte, the beloved Golda Rosheuvel will be reprising her role as the older Queen Charlotte, and you will recognize her from the Bridgerton series.
Corey Mylchreest is set to play the role of King George in Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story. Corey is best known for his work in Elevator Pitch and Mars, and most recently, The Sandman. He is an up-and-coming actor, so to a land a role on Netflix this early on in his career is definitely a win!
The other cast members who will be joining Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story are Adjoa Andoh, Ruth Gemmell, Arsema Thomas, Connie Jenkins-Greig, Hugh Sachs, Michelle Fairley and Tunji Kasim amongst other talented actors and actresses.
We know that everyone is wondering if Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story will release before or after Bridgerton Season 3. While there is no release date for Bridgerton Season 3, it can be safely assumed that you will get to watch Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story sooner than expected. Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story is officially slated to release on the 4th of May, 2023, so you can go ahead and save the date for one of the most important and exciting days of the year! Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story will be exclusively available to stream on Netflix and is supposed to have a total of six episodes with a run time of just under one hour for all of them.
As of now, Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story is set to be a limited series, as we mentioned before. But as of late, limited series tend to break that pattern and come out with another season, like The Watcher. So, keep your fingers crossed and if the viewership is good enough, Netflix might just renew Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story for another season.
So far, Netflix has only released a teaser of Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, but hopefully we will have the official trailer closer to the release date, which will give us a better idea of the plot. Until then, the teaser looks more than promising and we are more than happy that there is more of Bridgerton in store for all of us. We catch a glimpse of Charlotte and George, and everyone is ready to fall in love. The comments under the teaser have been very positive and this is something that the viewers always wanted, and have finally received. We can’t wait until Netflix releases the official trailer to give us a better insight of what we can expect from all the episodes.
We are very excited to watch Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story because anything that brings us royals with beautiful dresses and a history, we are sold! Let us know in the comments what you think about Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story!
