If you’re wondering whether “Queen Charlotte” keeps with the “Bridgerton” tradition of including string covers of pop songs, the answer is a resounding yes.
These sonic delights became expected after Season 1 of Shonda Rhimes’ adaptation of Julia Quinn’s “Bridgerton” novels, which are set in the Regency Era marriage market. Rhimes has returned to the royal world for a peek at the Georgian Era and the start of the Great Experiment in the prequel series “Queen Charlotte.” After all, Queen Charlotte made way for a multiracial society in a previously whitewashed London, all because she married the king. Not only does the “Bridgerton” spinoff series “Queen Charlotte,” delve into the queen’s backstory, but just as Charlotte (India Amarteifio) learns to navigate her new status, a young Lady Agatha Danbury (Arsema Thomas) figures out what it means to hold title and be in the queen’s court.

Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story is a Bridgerton spinoff series that shows us how life was in the Ton during the early days of Queen Charlotte and King George’s marriage. We get to see how they meet and fall in love, how her reign leads to social change in the Ton, and how she became the strong and influential Queen that we see in Bridgerton’s first two seasons. But just because this series introduces us to younger versions of familiar characters doesn’t mean that it’s stuck in the past. Queen Charlotte also features an arc set in the “present day” Regency era of the original series that focuses on Charlotte, Lady Danbury, and Violet Bridgerton’s friendship.
Between both eras, Queen Charlotte has a massive cast full of new and familiar faces. If you want to be as up to date on the hot gossip of the ton as Lady Whistledown,...

For everyone experiencing a "Bridgerton"-sized void in their lives since season 2 wrapped up in March last year, there's plenty to look forward to with the franchise cranking out new installments. Aside from seasons 3 and 4, which have already been ordered by the streamer, Netflix's latest addition to the "Bridgerton" franchise is a prequel series centered on Queen Charlotte's rise to prominence and power. The show is already shaping up to be an exciting expansion of the "Bridgerton" universe as evidenced by a first glimpse video shared by Netflix. Now, while the clip might not contain the usual steamy bodice-ripping in the middle of a rain-soaked field, there's a charming, romantic meet-cute between Queen Charlotte and King George when he finds her trying to escape an arranged marriage situation dangerously.
Here's all we know about the show including its cast, release date, trailer, and more!
