Poster Bridgerton (Netflix)

JAKARTA - Streaming service Netflix released a trailer for the latest series, Bridgerton. After releasing a teaser in November, this new trailer introduces viewers to the conflicts and characters in the series by Shonda Rhimes.

Set in the Regency era, Bridgerton chronicles the eight children of the Bridgerton family. As the most respected family, they were asked to find a partner as soon as possible. The focus of the series is on Daphne, the oldest child of the Bridgerton family.

Daphne is competing in the Regency London wedding market. However, as the journey of his love, a scandalous newspaper was created by a person named Lady Whistledown. This newspaper wrote a critique of Daphne that caught the attention of a nobleman who was most in demand.

The trailer features the relationship between Simon Bassett (Rege-Jean Page) and Daphne Bridgerton (Phoebe Dyneveor). The two agreed to pretend as a couple to relieve the pressure of getting married from those around them.

Bridgerton is adapted from a book by Julia Quinn and produced by Shonda Rhimes. Being his first serial project with Netflix, Rhimes is said to have signed a partnership worth 150 million US dollars.

In contrast to his recent works such as Grey's Anatomy and Scandal, Rhimes made Bridgerton in a historical package with a melodrama side.

Apart from Page and Dyneveor, Bridgerton is played by Julie Andrews, Adjoa Andoh, Nicole Coughlan, Jonathan Bailey, Luke Newton, Claudia Jessie and others.

The Bridgerton series will air on Netflix starting December 25. Watch Bridgerton's new trailer below.
