'Bridgerton' showrunner Jess Brownell discussed her plans to introduce more prominent LGBTQIA+ characters into the show
The creative team behind Bridgerton has big plans to offer more LGBTQIA+ inclusion on screen.
“This is a show about love in its many forms, and I think that it's only right for us to foreground queer love and to tell queer stories,” Brownell told Pride in an interview published on Thursday, April 18. “I want to see more queer joy on my screens, and that was definitely a priority for me when I stepped into the showrunner role.”
“I'm desperate for it. I cannot wait. I think it will be so beautiful,” Coughlan, 37, who plays Penelope Featherington, told the outlet. “The wonderful thing about Bridgerton is it's an invented world that has never existed. It's a Regency London in which we wear all these mad bright colors, it's really diverse, there's glitter eyeshadow. So I think there's so much space there for queer love stories and I think all love stories deserve to be celebrated.
'There's eight Bridgerton siblings so there are eight books. We are definitely planning on following each one of their romantic stories,' Rhimes shared with Entertainment Tonight in March 2022. 'We are not necessarily going in order. But we are going to be seeing each of the siblings and their story.'
