The London premiere of the second half of Bridgerton Season 3 has caused quite a stir among fans, especially those rooting for the romantic pairing of Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington. Actor Luke Newton, who plays Colin, describes the upcoming episodes as “quite steamy,” hinting at some romantic developments that fans have been eagerly anticipating. The decision by Netflix to release the new season in two parts has led to some frustration among viewers, who have had to wait weeks to see the continuation of the story. Despite the delay, Newton believes that the spaced-out release allows viewers to savor and appreciate the show more.
Newton, along with co-star Nicola Coughlan, has experienced a surge in popularity as their characters’ relationship evolves from friendship to romance on screen. The actor acknowledges the immense impact of the show’s fandom and the dedicated following it has garnered worldwide. He describes the experience of engaging with fans and traveling to promote the series as incredible and rewarding. The London premiere serves as a moment of celebration for Newton and Coughlan, as they reflect on the journey of their characters over multiple seasons. The on-screen tension and chemistry between their characters have captivated audiences and kept fans eagerly anticipating each new episode.
In addition to the success of Bridgerton, the London premiere also marks a personal milestone for Newton in terms of his evolving sense of style. The actor admits that he has only recently started to enjoy dressing for red carpet events and other public appearances, thanks in part to working with stylist Holly White. White, who has collaborated with Newton on his wardrobe choices, emphasizes the importance of capturing a leading-man energy in their fashion selections. The actor’s newfound appreciation for fashion and his collaboration with White have opened up a new world of creative expression for him, enhancing his overall red carpet presence.
The partnership between Newton and White has been described as a joyous and collaborative process, with both parties fully embracing the opportunity to experiment with different looks and styles. White credits their close working relationship and shared vision for Newton’s fashion journey, which has evolved over time, particularly since their initial collaboration for a Vogue event. The actor’s growth in confidence and enjoyment of fashion has been evident in his recent appearances, including the London premiere, where he sported an Emporio Armani ensemble. As Newton continues to explore and develop his personal style, he remains open to new sartorial possibilities and experiences on and off the red carpet.
