Bridgerton fans around the world were left shocked and upset following the news that Regé-Jean Page would not be returning for Bridgerton Season 2.

Now, the actor has left many fans questioning whether he could return as the Duke of Hastings in a cameo during the forthcoming season.

British GQ asked the star whether he could appear, eliciting the following response:

"You know I couldn't tell you."

Indeed, casting scoop of this caliber would be kept under wraps until transmission.

“Isn’t there something wonderful about being surprised by what you weren’t suspecting?” the actor teased when the outlet asked again.

Could you imagine the reaction if Page did return to the series in any capacity?

Even if it was just a tiny scene, there would be a lot of happy viewers of the series.

Page was one half of the show's romance on the freshman season, starring opposite Phoebe Dynevor.
