Bridgerton Season 3 Sets Up One Spinoff That's Been Desperately Needed Since Queen Charlotte

Summary Bridgerton season 3's success prompts potential spinoff, focusing on Violet Bridgerton's intriguing backstory and love story with Edmund.

Queen Charlotte's popularity shows audience interest in exploring other characters beyond the Bridgerton family matriarch role.

Creator Shonda Rhimes hints at Violet spinoff possibility, showcasing Lord Marcus Anderson as a potential new love interest for Violet.

The incredibly popular Bridgerton season 3 has made it clear that one of the show's characters deserves her own spinoff. The Bridgerton series has become one of Netflix's most successful projects, making up 33% of the streaming giant’s most-watched programs at the time of writing. With such a remarkable record and Bridgerton season 3’s talented cast, it is no surprise that the streaming service wants to capitalize on the show’s success by adding another spinoff.

While Netflix hasn't confirmed that there will be another Bridgerton spinoff, Queen Charlotte’s success showed audiences that there is a need for a show that should focus on other characters. Fortunately, there seems to be a huge audience interest in more Bridgerton shows, especially because of the great reviews that Bridgerton season 3 is receiving. While Bridgerton is full of great characters, two in particular offer an intriguing story following the Queen Charlotte template.

Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story’s success helped raise significant interest in a Violet Bridgerton spinoff. The Bridgerton series has mostly focused on Violet's role as the matriarch in the family, but Queen Charlotte showed there is more to her than just her vested interest in finding her eight children a love match. Violet Bridgerton is a multi-layered character with an interesting backstory that deserves further exploration. Her relationship with Edmund and the aftermath of his death could be something a Violet Bridgerton spinoff could delve into.

The first four episodes of Bridgerton season 3 are now available on Netflix.

Although a Violet Bridgerton spinoff is an intriguing possibility, Bridgerton creator Shonda Rhimes still isn't sure if it will ever happen. During the London premiere of Queen Charlotte in Leicester Square, Rhimes stated, “There’s no plan to explore anybody in particular… Although, in writing it I got very interested in Violet’s story. So, we’ll see,” (via Hello). While Rhimes agrees that Violet is a compelling character, she did not write Queen Charlotte with the intention of veering off into other characters’ stories. Nevertheless, her acknowledgment that Violet has potential suggests that her own spinoff would be a natural next step.

Violet Brigerton’s love match with Viscount Edmund Bridgerton has been the talk of the show since it first aired. Unfortunately, her love story was cut short when Edmund died from a bee sting, leaving Violet to raise their children alone. A Violet Bridgerton spinoff could delve into the couple's love story and give audiences a glimpse of what it is about their relationship that made Violet put it on a pedestal. Despite the interest in Violet and Edmund's relationship, Julia Quinn does not currently intend to write a book about them.

After Edmund died, Violet had no intention of focusing on any romantic pursuits. However, it seems like she is ready to love again, since she confided in Lady Danbury that she might be looking for another companion. Bridgerton season 3 has introduced a new character, Lady Danbury's brother, Lord Marcus Anderson, and signs point to him being Violet's new love interest. It's too early to tell if Lord Anderson will indeed be Violet’s new love match, but with a Violet Bridgerton spinoff now a possibility, audiences might get an opportunity to see their romance blossom.

Lord Marcus Anderson is another Bridgerton character who appears in the show but is not featured in Julia Quinn's Bridgerton book series.
