Bridgerton<\/em><\/a> fans think author Julia Quinn<\/strong> hinted that Hyacinth and Gregory could be recast in the future.<\/p>\n

Eagle-eyed social media users pointed out that Quinn\u2019s website listed Florence Hunt<\/strong> as a the \u201cYoung Hyacinth Bridgerton\u201d while Will Tilston is referred to as \u201ca young Gregory Bridgerton (years before his love story).\u201d<\/p>\n

Based on her book series, Bridgerton<\/em> centers around the different members of a wealthy family as they each search for love in 19th century London. Season 1 of Netflix\u2019s Bridgerton<\/em> centered<\/a> around Daphne Bridgerton (Dynevor) and Simon Basset (Page), who were the leads of the first book, The Duke and I<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Season 2 took inspiration from The Viscount Who Loved Me<\/em>, which followed Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey<\/strong>) as he found love with Kate Sharma (Simone Ashley<\/strong>). Despite Benedict Bridgerton (Luke Thompson<\/strong>) being the subject of the third novel \u2014 An Offer From a Gentleman<\/em> \u2014 his love story with newcomer Sophie (Yerin Ha<\/strong>) wasn\u2019t explored until season 4.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tBridgerton has gone through some onscreen recasts and book changes, which has caused some fans to worry that more main characters will look different in future seasons of the hit Netflix series. Based on Julia Quinn\u2018s book series, the Regency show follows different members of a wealthy family as they each search for love in [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The third season instead focused on Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton<\/strong>) and Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan<\/strong>) as seen in Quinn\u2019s book Romancing Mister Bridgerton<\/em>. Brownell recently confirmed that Eloise and Phillip Crane or Francesca (Hannah Dodd<\/strong>) and Michaela (Masali Baduza<\/strong>) are next in line.<\/a><\/p>\n

Quinn previously addressed recasting concerns, exclusively telling Us Weekly in February, \u201cIt\u2019s funny because they were, like, 12 and 13 when they started. If you asked me that back then [about the same actors playing them as adults], I\u2019d be like, \u2018I don\u2019t know.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

She continued: \u201cBut when I saw them again at the premiere, they were both drinking wine. They\u2019re both 18 now and Will was there with his girlfriend.\u201d<\/p>\n

The author pointed out that there were still a few years before It\u2019s In His Kiss<\/em> and On the Way to the Wedding<\/em> will be featured with their own seasons.<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tAs soon as Netflix debuted Bridgerton, fans became invested in the stories still yet to be told. Based on Julia Quinn\u2018s novels of the same name, the series began with the love story of Daphne Bridgerton (Phoebe Dynevor) and Simon Basset (Reg\u00e9-Jean Page). Season 2 of Bridgerton told the story of Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey) [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201c[Showrunner] Jess [Brownell] has said the next two seasons will be either Eloise and then Francesca or Francesca and then Eloise, which makes sense. It takes a few years to film, so by the time we get to Hyacinth and Gregory, the actors are going to be well into their 20s,\u201d Quinn explained. \u201cSo I think it\u2019ll probably be OK. Will it be weird that we knew them when they were 12? We see child stars grow up all the time.\u201d<\/p>\n
