Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) steps away from the world of wallflowers and into the spotlight in Bridgerton Season 3. As Penelope embarks on a mission to marry, she has a style metamorphosis. In the first episode of Part 1, Penelope steps out in a stunning, one-of-a-kind emerald green gown, unlike anything she (or anyone else) has worn before. TV Insider spoke with Bridgerton costume designer John Glaser and hair and makeup artist Erika Okvist about Penelope’s Season 3 makeover. “It was chosen for a lot of reasons,” Glaser said about Penelope’s emerald green dress. “One, is that we followed Erika’s hair color. If you look at that dress, the inner layers are copper and teal, and we didn’t want to give up her connection to the Featherington colors right away. It’s also something that the modiste helped her pick, so the modiste would have held on to the old Featherington colors.

British historical comedy Seize Them is getting a physical media release, with the movie set for DVD and Blu-ray next month.
As much as we wanted to, and tried for many months on and off to do so, we weren’t able to cover the British comedy Seize Them! much in the end. Credit to its distributors though for putting the film out in cinemas, and now for backing that up with a physical media release as well.
Seize Them!, we’ve now had confirmed, will be arriving on DVD and Blu-ray in the UK on 24th June 2024. No 4K option, but we weren’t really expecting one. A good solid Blu-ray sounds like it might be just the ticket.
The film is available for preorder now. You can find more information on it, and order a copy, right here.

Pitbull reacted on Tuesday to his song’s feature in Bridgerton‘s carriage scene, which hit Netflix along with the first half of season three last week.
“This again shows the world how music is the international language that transcends over boundaries,” Mr. Worldwide wrote on Instagram beneath a clip of the scene.
Netflix’s Bridgerton has featured instrumental covers of hit pop songs since season one. Part 1 of season three included titles from BTS, Nick Jonas, Sia, Billie Eilish, Taylor Swift and more. In episode four, a cover of Pitbull’s “Give Me Everything” featuring Ne-Yo and Afrojack played during a carriage sex scene with stars Colin (Luke Newton) and Penelope (Nicola Coughlan).

Exclusive: Derry Girls and Bridgerton star Nicola Coughlan, who last year also played one of the Barbies in Greta Gerwig’s box office smash Barbie, has booked the starring role in feature drama-thriller Love And War about a woman who must travel to Syria to find her abducted daughter.

As you’ll probably know, Bridgerton is one of Netflix’s most popular series. The erotic period drama has captured the attention and imagination of many fans around the world, proving once more that sex – indeed – does sell! The series is based on the eponymous novel series by Julia Quinn, with the first season premiering on December 25, 2020. The series is currently in its third season, whose first part was released only recently, and in it, the series has continued to push boundaries like it did in previous seasons. In Season 3, Irish actress Nicola Coughlan has become one of the leads and this has caused a lot of controversy.
Namely, the former Derry Girls star has been criticized because of her appearance, and many thought that Bridgerton had gone too far with making her the female lead in Season 3, especially in light of the large number of erotic scenes in the series.

Nicola Coughlan is nowhere near done with “Bridgerton,” but the star of Season 3 can’t help looking down the road. After making the seamless jump from wallflower to leading lady with Penelope’s story, she recognizes that her character will move to the periphery after Parts 1 and 2 premiere this summer.
“I was talking to Luke Newton about this the other day,” Coughlan told IndieWire the day before “Bridgerton” Season 3 – Part 1 premiered. “There’s something nice about kind of going back to the drawing board thing as an actor. You’re not going back to point zero, but it’s nice to go ‘Now I’ve got to work my ass off again to get a job.'”
Coughlan was conscious of the fact that a lot of actors reach a point where they no longer accept auditions, just offers, but she feels it’s too important to test the waters...

This article contains spoilers for Bridgerton season 3 part 1.
In the new season of Bridgerton, Penelope (Nicola Coughlan) and Colin (Luke Newton) twirl among tacky fake columns. They argue while gazing not-so-subtly into each other’s eyes. Penelope’s skirts swish over a Roman mosaic of two winged gods. The resident mean girl Cressida quips, “Eros and Psyche, battling it out.”
What on earth is Cressida on about? How do Eros and Psyche mirror Colin and Penelope? Most crucially, how does this myth predict the rest of season 3? Dearest gentle reader, this author shall explain all.
Who Are Cupid and Psyche?
Eros is the Greek name and Cupid is the Roman name for the same god of love. His dramatic romance with Psyche appears on ancient Greek vases and statues from the 4th century Bce onwards. The longest written-out version is from a smutty Latin novel called The Golden Ass, by the North African writer Apuleius.

The first four episodes of the season three of “Bridgerton” dropped on Friday and sent fans of Penelope and Colin (#Polin!) into a carriage-induced frenzy. Anthony Ahn, who directed episodes 3 and 4 (yep: those episodes), replied to a few fan questions on Twitter/X, including one about a key ballroom scene that’s left people in tatters.
Tension between the longtime friends began to build in the first episode, after Colin returned to the ton fresh off a journey that took him through 17 cities, where he presumably… learned a few things. Still hurt after the season two ender in which Colin told friends he would never pursue a relationship with her, Penelope is simultaneously happy to see her friend is back, and mad as hell.
By the end of the first episode, Colin has suggested he help Penelope, who is in her third year of the marriage market, with her quest to get married.

“I specifically asked for certain lines and moments to be included,” Coughlan said of working with intimacy coordinator Lizzy Talbot. “There’s one scene where I’m very naked on camera, and that was my idea, my choice. It just felt like the biggest ‘fuck you’ to all the conversation surrounding my body; it was amazingly empowering. I felt beautiful in the moment, and I thought, ‘When I’m 80, I want to look back on this and remember how fucking hot I looked!'”
She added of collaborating with Talbot, “You go, ‘Ok, what do I want to show? What don’t I want to show? What’s scripted,...

Two “Bridgerton” superfans are getting the wedding of their dreams in the Netflix reality special “The Event of the Season: A Bridgerton Wedding,” airing May 21.
In honor of Season 3 of “Bridgerton” premiering, the streamer dropped a teaser for the spin-off on Friday. The special stars Tiffany, 27, and Shanti, 28, as the lucky couple who experience all the luxury and decadence of the Regency Era in a lead-up to their big day.
The New Yorkers, who first met in high school, have been together for 10 years.
“I wasn’t really looking for someone, and Tiff wasn’t really looking for someone. We were really just in our own bubble in life, going through life and finding ourselves,” Shanti told Tudum. “We were having those tough conversations as friends. We got a stronger connection through that. So that made us be like, ‘Wait a minute, actually, I could see this person as my person.

The slow-moving first season of Amazon’s sci-fi Western “Outer Range,” ostensibly about a void in the middle of a pasture owned by Royal Abbott (Oscar nominee Josh Brolin), didn’t answer many (or really any) of the questions it put forth. By the end of Season 1 we knew for certain that the gaping hole in the ground allowed people to travel through time, but little else was revealed or explained. The show was comfortable to let viewers quietly ponder the meaning of life, the universe, and everything as its many interconnected subplots unfolded. It was also a stunning advertisement for New Mexico (standing in for Wyoming) thanks to the wide sweeping vistas that acted as the show’s backdrop. But new showrunner Charles Murray knows we can’t subsist on beautiful scenery and vague discussions about time forever, so Season 2 — the seven episodes of which are now streaming on...

For any “Bridgerton” fans who relished in Kanthony’s slow burn from Season 2, Season 3 has delivered its fair share of screentime with the newlyweds.
“We wanted a little more time with them to see what it felt like when they’re just playful and in love,” showrunner Jess Brownell told TheWrap. “I think they deserved to have that screentime.”
After Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey) and Kate Sharma (Simone Ashley) jumped through every hoop to suppress their attraction to one another due to Anthony’s romance with Kate’s sister, Edwina, Brownell noted the couple “worked so hard to earn their happy ending.”
Season 3 picks up following Kate and Anthony’s honeymoon, with Kate enjoying her new title as viscountess, while Anthony shares his excitement to “make an heir” with his new wife. The couple’s spotlight in Season 3 extends the tradition kickstarted by Phoebe Dynevor reprising her role as Daphne...

Get in the carriage, it’s time for Bridgerton Season 3. Part 1 is now streaming, bringing all the swoons — and surprises — with it.
At the center of the ballroom will be wallflower (and secret scandal sheet writer) Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) and her longtime crush, world traveler Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton). That means this spring will officially be filled with #Polin, as fans have nicknamed the duo, and you’re about to see Penelope and Colin in a whole new way when they step into the spotlight. As the trailer reveals, there may just be more than “friendship” brewing between them. Keep reading below for all the juicy Season 3 details worthy of Lady Whistledown’s next dispatch, including the photos and video clips from the now-available episodes and hints of what’s to come in Part 2, which will be available later this summer.

Spoiler Alert! This post contains details from Season 3, Part 1 of Bridgerton.
Dearest gentle readers, the time has come for more Bridgerton.
Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) and Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) finally take center stage in Season 3 of the Netflix series. Fans have been chomping at the bit to see Polin’s love story unfold on screen, and this season does not disappoint.
But, of course, Polin isn’t the only source of drama this season. Things are still quite tense between Eloise (Claudia Jessie) and Penelope after the former discovered that the latter is in fact Lady Whistledown. Considering some of the less-than-favorable comments Whistledown has made about the Bridgerton family, and even Eloise herself, it appears it’s going to be near impossible for Penelope to get Eloise’s forgiveness.
Then there’s the question of what will happen when Colin inevitably finds out this secret as well? Will...

While Bridgerton is first and foremost a love story, the relationship between the siblings and their mother plays a very important role in each season. And although viewers have only seen the first 4 episodes of season 3, it is already apparent that the family bond plays a major role in the way each Bridgerton views the world.
Two characters who offer the most support and parental advice are Violet Bridgerton, the matriarch of the family, and her older son Anthony, who had to step into the role of viscount and find the strength to raise his siblings at the age of 18. However, there was another sibling who could have provided a lot of insight throughout the series, but has yet to appear.
Daphne Bridgerton, who is missing from season 3, is one of the show's weakest links.

Penelope and Colin’s relationship blooms in Season 3.
Nicola Coughlan knows you’ve swooned over every sneaky peek of Bridgerton Season 3 ahead of its May 16 premiere. The moment her character, Penelope Featherington, confronts longtime crush Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) about a Season 2 slight? The passion. The time they hop into a carriage together? A winking nod to one of Penelope and Colin’s steamiest scenes in the Bridgerton books. And then there was the video of Polin, as they’ve been dubbed by fans, sharing longing stares in the Bridgertons’ drawing room…
“Luke and I love that clip. But it’s not even in our top five Polin scenes,” Coughlan tells Tudum on a cloudy day in London. “If fans love that, they’re going to lose their minds over Season 3.”
After all, as Coughlan’s friend and co-star Newton says, the Season 3 premiere takes off faster than Kate Bridgerton...

Dearest gentle readers, Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) and Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) finally get together at the end of Bridgerton season three, Part 1.
The couple, often regarded as one of the favorites in Julia Quinn’s novel series that serves as the basis of the Netflix hit show, have spent their whole lives in love with each other — even if one of them didn’t realize it until now. And their relationship seems to be in the best place ever when the first four episodes end. But, for how long?
In the final moments of Part 1 (the season has a two-part release), Colin admits he has feelings for Penelope.

Dearest readers: It’s Bridgerton Week at IndieWire. We’re celebrating the new season by diving deep on one of the best romance shows on TV.
Three seasons into “Bridgerton,” fans of the Regency drama are used to the sweeping romances filled with everything hot and heavy — banter, drama, and above all else sex. Every season has had its “diamond”—Daphne (Phoebe Dynevor) in Season 1, Edwina (Charithra Chandran) in Season 2, Francesca (Hannah Dodd) in Season 3. While Francesca might be of diamond status in the courting process of the season, her brother Colin’s (Luke Newton) long-anticipated romance with Penelope (Nicola Coughlan) might more closely follow the beats of what the “Bridgerton” audience has become accustomed to.
Francesca’s road to romance remains something unlike what viewers have seen before on “Bridgerton” precisely because of her lack of interest in anything romantic or playing the typical heroine. When we first meet Francesca,...

Nicola Coughlan is revealing the prank she pulled on her Bridgerton co-star Luke Newton after learning he was once in a boy band.
During a recent interview with People magazine, the actress, who plays Penelope Featherington, was asked about her favorite behind-the-scenes moments while filming, to which she responded, “We had a fun one in one of the balls where Luke is meant to come in and interrupt a dance.”
She continued, “I had found out a few years previous that Luke used to be in a boy band, and I just thought it was the best thing ever. I had for years wanted to do this prank on him where he comes in to do a dance and instead of the music for the show playing, it would be his song from his boy band, but it took so much planning, it was insane.”

[Editor’s note: The following interview contains spoilers for “Bridgerton” Season 3 – Part 1″ including the ending.]
Oh, my God.
The “Bridgerton” team absolutely heard some fans’ complaints about the lack of steamy scenes in Season 2. This time around, there is no such issue.
“It’s all about character,” showrunner Jess Brownell told IndieWire. “In Season 2, we had a lot of discussions about how much intimacy we wanted to see. And it had everything to do with the fact that Anthony is a very rigid and duty-bound character. His arc is about that rigidity. And so him just willy nilly having intimacy before marriage with someone wouldn’t make any sense. Penelope and Colin are not nearly as rigid as Anthony. So it was much easier to show more intimacy this season, and it is definitely a very steamy season.

At the start of Bridgerton Season 3, Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) feels lonelier than ever. She has never been kissed. Her mother suggests they’ll be a lifetime spinster-widow pair. And Penelope isn’t even talking to her best friend, Eloise Bridgerton (Claudia Jessie), to keep her mind off of her mounting obstacles.
Yet, by the end of Part 1, Penelope is on top of the world — and effectively fielding her second marriage proposal in a single evening. After years of pining, Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) has finally proposed to Penelope, leaving her (and fans) breathless. She also still might be a little flush from the pair’s emotional declarations that led to a romp in the back of a carriage set to a Pitbull tune.
“It takes Penelope until the end of their conversation to go, ‘This guy really loves me,’ ” Coughlan tells Tudum. “I think it’s a very slow...

He’s preparing to propose to Penelope when he figures out Penelope’s true feelings. During an emotional moment at the ball, Lord Debling confronts Penelope about Colin. He won’t marry someone who is in love with someone else. “Whatever it is you are searching for, I do hope you find it,” Lord Debling says to Penelope before walking away, leaving Penelope and Colin to finally confess their feelings for each other in that heated carriage moment.

Dearest readers: It’s Bridgerton Week at IndieWire. We’re celebrating the new season by diving deep on one of the best romance shows on TV.
A few days before “Bridgerton” Season 3 premieres worldwide, an eager fan muscled her way through the small crowd hovering around star Nicola Coughlan at the world premiere in New York City.
That fan would be this author’s mother, delighted to see her favorite character from one of her favorite shows (and she said as much in the moment). When Coughlan arrived at the IndieWire offices a couple days later, I expected the confident, funny, and affable actor now in month four of an international press tour — but I had also already witnessed her attentiveness and compassion firsthand in the best way.
“I believe strongly that everyone needs to do a year in retail,” Coughlan said as we discussed her journey to “Bridgerton.” “That...

When Bridgerton first broke through, it felt subversive. As sex has disappeared from film, Bridgerton featured some of the most intimate and erotic sequences on television. Placing this eroticism in a period drama gave the series a unique link. It immediately felt closer to Weathering Heights or Dangerous Liaisons. Now, after two seasons and a spin-off, the novelty has partially worn off. However, Season 3 of Bridgerton does not falter due to complacency. Rather, Shondaland and the showrunners overload the season. While Nicola Coughlan and Luke Newton finally take the spotlight, their story sags under the weight of carrying more than a half-dozen subplots.

[This story contains major spoilers from Bridgerton season three, Part 1.]
Bridgerton‘s third season has hit the Ton, and the final moments of the Part 1 release will have fans of the book and show alike on the edge of their seats, awaiting what comes next in Part 2.
Four episodes (and two seasons) of romantic buildup on the Netflix period drama between Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) and Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton) culminates in the famous carriage scene from Julia Quinn’s novel Romancing Mr. Bridgerton (of which this season is based), where the two engage in a steamy makeout scene and make it to second base.
Before they know it, the carriage arrives at the Bridgerton family house, and they need a moment to figure out what to do. Colin steps out of the carriage and extends his hand toward Penelope. “Are you coming with me?” he asks. “What? Your family will see me,” she responds. “For God’s sake, Penelope Featherington.

Change is afoot in Bridgerton, dear reader. Season 3 has been split into two parts, a consequence of last year's Hollywood strikes and Netflix's evolving approach to their traditional release model. And with this new season also comes an inevitable change in focus. It's finally the turn of Penelope (Nicola Coughlan) to take centre stage, a change that's most welcome indeed. Coughlan has always been a scene-stealer and she continues in that fashion here, as Penelope begins to prioritise her own happiness over the lives of others. Colin (Luke Newton), Penelope's long-time friend and the secret object of her affection, has also changed a great deal, with a near-unrecognisable glow-up that's made him the talk of the town.
A flash of Colin's newly chiselled abs in the first five minutes, not to mention the return of Jonathan Bailey's perpetually shirtless Anthony, remind us that...

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for Bridgerton Season 3 Part 1.] It’s been a long time coming—Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) and Colin Bridgerton’s (Luke Newton) first kiss, that is. Bridgerton’s latest loves spent the first two seasons in the friend zone only to quickly flip the script just two episodes into Season 3. While Bridgerton set up the friends-to-lovers arc from the very beginning, Season 3 made way for the story to break free when Colin offers to help his “very good friend” learn the ways of wooing through various courting lessons so she can find a husband. But when their scheme is blown up after Eloise (Claudia Jessie) blabs at a ball, Penelope feels hopeless about her prospects, leading to one big ask from her bestie. Reasoning that she could die tomorrow and remain un-kissed, Penelope pleads with Colin to change that status, leading to a surprisingly sweet and poignant first kiss for the couple.
