Bridgerton fans have been spoiled of late. The second season of Shonda Rhimes’s Regency romp landed on screens on March 25—replete with secret assignations, lavish balls, and bees—and now, there’s already more news on the show’s upcoming spin-off centered on the formidable Queen Charlotte. Though the scheming, extravagantly dressed monarch, believed by many to be Britain’s first Black queen, is played by Golda Rosheuvel in the first and second seasons, it’s been revealed that newcomer India Amarteifio will portray her as a teenager in the prequel.
The actor, who’s had small roles in Doctor Who, Line of Duty, and Sex Education, will be joined by a host of other new additions to the Bridgerton universe: Corey Mylchreest as the young King George; Michelle Fairley as Augusta, the dowager princess who will do whatever it takes to secure her son’s position; and Arsema Thomas as the young Agatha Danbury, who uses Charlotte’s arrival to find her own way into high society. Adjoa Andoh, who embodies the latter in Bridgerton, will also appear, as will Rosheuvel and Ruth Gemmell, the original show’s Lady Violet Bridgerton. Rounding out the cast are Hugh Sachs and Sam Clemmett as the older and younger iterations of Brimsley, the queen’s trusted secretary; Rob Maloney as the royal doctor; and Cyril Nri as Lord Danbury.
