Benedict “Twerp” Bridgerton’s love story is written in the stars — by which we mean, Netflix has spoken. Yerin Ha will play Sophie Beckett, Benedict’s love interest in season four of Bridgerton, per a report in Variety. She’s b-b-b-beautiful! Plus, if they base the character on the version of her that’s included in the novels, then she’s got a perspective on the real world Benedict, rather notably, lacks. What does Benedict have? A predilection for MILFs? A predilection for breaking up with MILFs after an MMF three-way because he has commitment issues? Sophie is known throughout the book as “the Lady in Silver,” which plays out like a Cinderella story from the POV of the Prince. Benedict doesn’t know who she is when they meet at Violet Bridgerton’s masquerade ball. What we know is that he better grow up if he wants to be worthy.
Once they do get together, the Bridgerton family won’t be Ha’s first time in a sisterhood. She’s also starring in the upcoming Dune spinoff series, Dune: Prophecy, previously titled Dune: The Sisterhood, which will focus on the early days of the Bene Gesserit. So, yeah, this girl’s got range — from the 1800s to the 10,000s.
