While the highly anticipated installment isn’t expected to hit screens until 2026, the casting of veteran actress Susan Brown as Mrs. Crabtree has already sparked intrigue among fans.

Known for her roles in Game of Thrones and The Iron Lady, Brown’s addition to Bridgerton Season 4 is set to bring depth to a pivotal character in Benedict Bridgerton’s love story.

Filming in Full Swing

Production for Bridgerton Season 4 has been underway since September 2024, with Netflix steadily building anticipation for the next chapter of the hit series.

This season will shift its focus to the fourth Bridgerton sibling, Benedict, played by Luke Thompson.

Inspired by Julia Quinn’s novel An Offer from a Gentleman, Benedict’s storyline takes on a Cinderella-like twist, promising to enchant viewers with its blend of romance, drama, and societal conflict.

Netflix’s announcement video in July 2024 confirmed that Bridgerton Season 4 would delve into Benedict’s relationship with Sophie Beckett, portrayed by Yerin Ha.

Sophie, the noble-born daughter forced into servitude by her stepmother, captures Benedict’s heart after a fateful encounter at a masquerade ball.

Susan Brown as Mrs. Crabtree

The latest casting news introduces Susan Brown as Mrs. Crabtree, a key character who plays a vital role in Benedict’s romantic journey.

Brown, a seasoned actress with a storied career, is no stranger to playing nurturing and wise figures, as seen in her portrayal of Septa Mordane in Game of Thrones.

Mrs. Crabtree, the housekeeper at Benedict’s Wiltshire residence, My Cottage, serves as a quiet yet significant force in the story.

Alongside her husband, Mr. Crabtree, she becomes a crucial supporter of Benedict and Sophie’s burgeoning relationship, offering guidance and encouragement amidst the societal pressures of Regency-era England.

A Pivotal Character in a Pivotal Season

In Julia Quinn’s third novel, Mrs. Crabtree’s role, though limited to that story, is essential in shaping the dynamics of Benedict and Sophie’s relationship.

Her wisdom and warmth create a safe haven for the couple as they navigate the disapproval of the ton, who remain staunchly divided by class distinctions.

By casting Brown, Netflix has ensured that Mrs. Crabtree’s character will be brought to life with the depth and nuance it deserves.

Brown’s extensive experience in portraying strong, maternal roles suggests she is well-suited for this part, adding an extra layer of authenticity to the series.
