Bridgerton skipped to run for Eight seasons while the creator slammed future plans

Bridgerton could go from an overnight sensation to an eight-season run, according to the creator of the Netflix hit.

The series was canceled on Christmas Day and has been at the top of the list of most watched Netflix for the past two weeks, proving to be a huge success.

And Chris Van Dusen, the presenter, has been thinking that he could have a long life.

Speaking to Collider this weekend, he said: ‘With a family of eight children and eight books, I would like to be able to focus and tell stories and love stories to the sisters. All Bridgerton. For each character, for sure. I would like that. ‘

He explained that season one was ‘specifically about Daphne and her love story with Simon’ but that there is much more to explore.

The show is based on Julia Quinn’s Bridge Quinn novels – the second called The Viscount Who Loved Me.

Book two follows Daphne Bridgerton’s older brother Anthony, who is looking for a wife.

In addition, the story of the marriage of Daphne and Simon Basset would continue, as well as the developments of Lady Portia Featherington after the death of her husband. The mystery of Lady Whistledown’s identity also continues.

Julia Quinn describes her follow-up books as ‘second epilogues’.

They are the Duke And I, the Lord whom I loved, an offer from a gentleman, dancing Mister Bridgerton, to Sir Phillip, with love, when he was evil, he is a kiss, and on the way to the wedding.

There were also two other books focusing on the writings of Lady Whistledown from the Bridgerton series, published in 2003 and 2004.

Bridgerton is expected to pick up more than 63 million views by the end of January.

Netflix hasn’t confirmed further installments but it seems inevitable.
