Regé-Jean Page Enjoys Recasting As Bridgerton In Netflix Drama that Made him star

This is disappointing news for Bridgerton fans, especially fans of Regé-Jean Page and his beautifully crafted scene-stealing performance in the first season. He has explicitly stated that he will not be returning, stating that he has moved on and inviting Netflix to do the same. The actor says he hasn't seen Shonda Rhimes's second season of the period drama that made him an international star and put him in the forefront of recent James Bond discussions..” At the premiere of his latest film The Gray Man, Page was asked about recasting his Bridgerton character, the Duke of Hastings

"They can do whatever they want. Toward the end of Season 1, Shonda and I had a wonderful conversation. With that one, we were quite pleased with how we landed. We stuck the landing on that one, and I'm still proud of that." In April 2021, Page confirmed that he would not be returning to Bridgerton, which broke Netflix records on its Christmas Day premiere in 2020. The series has always been planned to center each season around a different central romance. There was no sign of the Duke, although his character's wife Daphne, played by British actress Phoebe Dynevor, had a small part in the second season. In his statement last year, Page stated: “It has been an absolute pleasure and privilege to serve as your Duke.

The pleasure of joining this family - on screen as well as off-screen. It has been beyond my wildest expectations to work with such a talented, generous, and committed cast, crew, and fans. It is a real love that will continue to grow." Together with Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans, and Ana de Armas, Page appears in the action thriller The Gray Man, streaming on Netflix as of July 22. In the film, Page described his character as "super bad," but he could have said the same about his time on Bridgerton, and this only enhanced the enjoyment of fans. Any actor who attempts to fill the Duke's highly polished shoes will find it extremely difficult.
