Fans have been waiting with bated breath for filming updates on Bridgerton Season 5. So, when will Season 5 begin production? Cameras are all set to roll in March 2026, right after Season 4 lands on Netflix in January and February.
If you want all the latest production details and what this filming timeline actually means for fans, here is everything you need to know.
A new filming window brings fresh hope for Bridgerton Season 5 fans
After months of speculation about whether Netflix would delay the release further, it has now been revealed that production for Bridgerton Season 5 is slated to start in March 2026.
This is important because Season 4 is planned for 2026. Part 1 debuts on January 29 and Part 2 releases on February 26. With Season 5 starting filming just a month later, fans are hopeful that they won't have to wait long for the next season.
This shift feels like a win for the fandom because the wait between Season 3 and Season 4 has been almost 18 months.
What’s On Netflix reported that this start date is earlier than the usual TV meaning of spring, since spring often points to April or May. So even though there is no exact filming day announced yet, March is still a step forward.
Even with this update, Bridgerton Season 5 will probably reach screens sometime in 2027 because post-production and filming take time. Still, knowing cameras will start rolling right after Season 4 drops feels like the show has finally found its rhythm again.
And for fans who love planning their binge sessions early, this timeline actually makes things feel a lot more stable.
Which Bridgerton sibling will Season 5 focus on
Another fun part of the Bridgerton Season 5 updates is knowing exactly which sibling takes the spotlight next. The new season will likely focus on Eloise and Sir Philip Crane. Their love story will be based on Julia Quinn’s book To Sir Phillip, With Love.
It follows Eloise unexpectedly starting a letter exchange with Sir Philip, which slowly grows into something more emotional and surprising. Their story is different from the past seasons because most of their connection builds through letters.
Since Season 4 will highlight Benedict and his magical masquerade storyline, the switch to Eloise in Season 5 keeps the book order going again. Fans have been waiting for Eloise’s season because she has always been the curious and sharp sibling who speaks her mind.
Seeing her jump into a long-distance style romance brings a whole new vibe, especially because this story eventually leads her to visit Sir Philip after his proposal.
The timing of production also matters for the story. If filming for Bridgerton Season 5 runs smoothly through 2026, there is a good chance Netflix won’t push the release too far beyond 2027.
The goal seems to be shortening the big pauses between each season, and this earlier start gives fans hope that the long breaks might finally become smaller.
