    Honestly the way they casted the actors is the way it should be. Not using a famous actors name to bring success but actually having confidence in your production and giving a chance to lesser known actors to portray characters without already having a set character for them

      They are theatre peeps. Those 3 guys and the queen, not sure about the others. No wonder they act superbly and their stories will be featured first after Daphne since I think hers is the original so you can’t change that in the order. Theatre people are on another level. How I wish we had that kind of school program back in the days lol.

    Now I realize, bridgerton will actually not be like other series where the story might drag on where you would know that the writers are grasping for straws for a new arc. It will not be like other shows where you will get tired of the leads because they have too much screen time. It is formulated to have a different set of lead for every season, a different love story, but the same cast. You may not like one season but you will want to watch the other season just because its basically a new show to get hooked on. 😮

    The way Nicola Coughlan intentionally did things to manage the stress (which is called being proactive not reactive) (going to Therapy once a week, going to workout, doing a relaxation day with massage) makes me think that I should do the same to manage my stress related to studying instead of talking to myself like "I'm stressed, I'm stressed" (being reactive). We think that only people with mental health disorders go to therapy, and we dont realise that if we go in the early stages when we are stressed, we will not get to the point of a mental health disorder.

    I think this video shows what a power house shondaland production company is. I do not think that this would be the case for all shows or tv. But I think they really capture the character in the show and then are better able to identify who will work best play that character.

    This is how casting process should be done. I'm inclined to say i prefer british productions now compared to hollywood. The acting, the stories, are all excellent. Even though I started watching Bridgerton solely due to Nicola because I adore her in Derry Girls, I'm glad i did and have been a huge fan eversince.

    That's very interesting... It sounds like they already pretty much knew who they would want to cast in the roles. I wonder how many audition Tapes they had seen in the process. I can't imagine it would've been too many, when they come to those decisions so easily?
    But isn't it also really risky to give the roles for romantic leads before they had even done a "chemistry reading"? It worked out pretty good in the end, but just imagine Simone and Jonathan couldn't stand each other?

    • @aishahsarfraz
      @aishahsarfraz 4 місяці тому +17

      Yeah exactly my thought SA was hired before the chemistry reading and they were lucky that it worked out!
      Same goes for Nicola and Luke bc apparently they didn’t even bother with a chemistry read between these two. I think bc the actors weren’t that well known before the show they all went the extra mile to familiarize themselves with the material and their screenmates which adds to the undeniable chemistry and bond everyone has with each other

      Are you not tired of seeing the same thing over and over again? Skinny white girl with skinny white man? Please open and expand your mind!! Bridgerton is loved because of its fantasy-esque regency setting and the diversity it brings that no regency show or movie has ever shown. If you want to watch the same bland structure go watch every other regency show/movie. Also Colin and Penelope have the most beautiful/gentle chemistry that people find strange just because it’s not aggressive/enemies to lovers like the first two seasons, if it followed the same pattern the show would be very boring and repetitive. Hope you open your mind and heart so you can enjoy such a beautiful show that so many people resonate with, have a good day :)
