00:00O fenômeno da Netflix, Bridgerton estreia sua quarta temporada, agora estrelada por Luke Thompson,
00:05que dá vida a Benedict Bridgerton e Erin Ra, intérprete da jovem criada Sophie Baeck.
00:10Com uma trama à la Cinderela, a nova fase da produção consegue ser tão envolvente quanto as temporadas anteriores.
00:16E eu conversei com o elenco de Bridgerton. Confira!
00:26I wanna first of all ask you, look, Benedict has been this notorious rake throughout the four seasons,
00:32but now he meets Sophie. In your opinion, do you believe, like, that true love can really change a man
00:38in that way?
00:39Yes, I think, like, true love has to change someone. I think that's what it is.
00:45I don't believe that it can happen without, like, blowing sort of someone's world apart.
00:53Like, that is sort of what it is. So, yeah, no, I mean, and he's a great one to, because
00:58you're right,
00:59I get what you're saying about the rake thing. I think he's been a bit smart with that in that
01:02he's disguised his
01:04maybe sort of rake-ish behaviour with a lot of charm and goodwill and ease, and he's actually managed to
01:10sort of,
01:11you know, make himself very palatable in that sense.
01:15which has worked for him, and then there are some things in life that you do that work for you
01:19for a while,
01:20and after a while they stop you changing, and they stop you getting a little bit further, and they stop
01:26you growing,
01:28I guess, is what it is, you know, maturing.
01:30Good. And, Nery, Sophie's story is like a Cinderella one, I guess. And do you, what are your perspectives of
01:39this kind of narratives
01:40on a romance series like Bridgerton?
01:43Yeah, I think what's so great about Sophie's story is, yes, it's Cinderella-based, but it's not quite that, is
01:50it?
01:50It's actually more about self-discovery and acceptance.
01:54And I think that is what's so brilliant about Bridgerton, and especially with Benedict and Sophie, it is about bringing
02:02out the qualities that they don't necessarily like in themselves, in one another, and actually see the flaws and the
02:08beauties of each other,
02:10because they're both imperfect people. And I think that's what's different about it, and also what's so great about Bridgerton
02:19as a season, as his show, yeah.
02:23Great. And look, one of the things that I liked most about Benedict is that the show shows us his
02:29bisexuality, how he's like this person who likes to navigate through all kinds of relations.
02:35And I wanted to know if the, we can expect like this, this aspect of him, of him will like
02:43interfere in his relationship with Sophie in the aftermath, or there's something that doesn't concern?
02:51Yeah, I don't think it has interfered. I think it's just that it's actually been some sort of force in
02:57his life that's enabled him to sort of explore and stuff.
03:01But I think, but explore sort of like outside, I think what Sophie has done to Benedict, I think is
03:11realised that there's an awful lot to discover inside. And I think he's not, you know, he's not someone who
03:16thinks too, who has thought deeply about what's going on inside him, which means that, you know, a couple of
03:21times in the show, you see him being sort of shallow, in the sense that he gets it very wrong.
03:26He's not sort of like, perfectly attuned to what's what's going on, or he's blind, or he doesn't recognise Sophie.
03:32So he's, he's flawed. And I think, yeah, I do think, you know, so Sophie, it could, it doesn't, you
03:40know, it could have been anyone, but I think it didn't matter whether it was a man or a woman,
03:44I think it was specifically Sophie, I think, and something in Sophie, that brings out something surprising in him, I
03:51think, makes him change.
03:53Great. And Yeren, Bridgerton has this amazing way of bringing more representativity to tenacity to the screen, I guess. That's
04:05something that lacks in the original books. Do you believe that this, this aspect of the series improved the narrative
04:13of the way to connect to the audience of a more global way, I guess?
04:18Yeah, absolutely. I mean, it definitely was the way, the reason why I watched Bridgerton. I didn't really watch a
04:25lot of Regency or period dramas, actually, because I didn't feel like I could connect in a way. And I
04:30think what Bridgerton did so well is, actually, there's no over explanation as to why these people are in positions
04:36that they are, and it is just a representation of the world we live in today.
04:40We are a melting pot of cultures, you know, we walk on the street and we see people from all
04:45walks of life. And that's why I think it reaches such a global audience is because people see themselves in
04:53different characters. And they can relate to them. And I'm very, very proud and fortunate that I can be in
05:00this position and hopefully have more people see themselves in in Sophie. Yeah.
05:13I want to first of all ask you, Claudia, Eloise has always been this independent woman who doesn't care about
05:19marriage and these convinces of society. Do you believe that changing that aspect of her, like maybe giving her a
05:28future love interest would like diminish her character in some way?
05:33No, because I think that would then presume there's only like one way to be feminist, which isn't true. I
05:39think that'd be more of a red herring, like making sure that everyone's experience gets accepted. And I think, if
05:49anything, it's a sign of like, a well rounded character for them to be able to do for more than
05:54one thing to be true at a time.
05:57Yeah, because I think I don't think she's anti love. I don't think she's anti romance. I just think right
06:01now she wants choice. And that feels fair. Because also I keep saying I'm really excited for her to one
06:07day maybe find someone really fit. Be nice.
06:11Great. And Hannah, when it was revealed that Francesca's future love interest would be a woman, the fans of the
06:19books went wild on the internet because it didn't make sense to her story and everything. As playing Francesca, how
06:27do you see this matter exactly? How is for you to play this new version of Francesca?
06:32We're just so excited. And it's the same Francesca. You know, we this show is a celebration of people and
06:38everybody deserves the chance to see themselves on screen and their love story on screen. So if and when I
06:46ever get the chance to tell that story, I'm really, really excited to do that. But right now, we're still
06:51very happily married to John. So ready to go. But we're just super excited to tell that story at some
06:57some point.
06:58And look, Colin is living like an eternal honeymoon in this moment of the show. What can we expect from
07:06the development of his character throughout the season?
07:10Yeah, he definitely is. He's a very happy husband at the moment. I think he's now feels he's somewhat of
07:19an expert with matters of the heart. So now he's trying to impart some wisdom on his younger brother.
07:26And maybe by chance, some of that indirectly gets passed on to Benedict at some point. So yeah, he's just
07:35trying to be be Cupid and like help everyone out because he seems to have everything figured out this year.
07:42And for the three of you, when you guys look to the development of all of the three characters, which
07:49one would you say that has like matured the most throughout these four seasons?
07:56Four or four? Four or four? Wow.
07:58The thing is, we're all quite mature in different ways as characters, because Eloise has got so much self-confidence,
08:06which is something that like Francesca really lacks and the ability to have an opinion and stand on our own
08:12too.
08:12Yeah, it has to be one of you too, though, because I think, yeah, I think it's I think that
08:19Francesca's got a long way to go, but she's matured in a lot of ways as well.
08:24Yeah, they've all had huge lessons each season, haven't they? So, yeah, I don't know.
08:29I suppose Floral, Hyacinth and Gregory. Yeah, they've literally matured the most. Yeah.
08:37I love seeing Hyacinth's story because there's similarities between Hyacinth and Eloise in the way that they approach things.
08:45But they're like the things that they desire and they're quite different, but they have like this sort of like
08:54spunky attitude that they both share.
08:57Yeah, like you'd want to hang out with both of them. They're just like, yeah.
09:01Good. And this particular season is like a Cinderella story. And I wanted to ask you if that kind of
09:08story is like one of, was it your favorite at some point of your life?
09:13Or do you guys like prefer another classic love story to play on in the series?
09:19Wow. I do like the comparison of the Cinderella story because I think people that maybe don't know of the
09:27show, it's like quite an easy way to give them a summary of like what, how we're going to start
09:32off the season.
09:33And I would also say that I feel like the season starts with like a Cinderella sort of vibe, but
09:39then there's so much more to it and we really expand on that world.
09:43And yeah, I think it's, it's really exciting. I don't know if there's any other, if we've had any yet,
09:49maybe there will be in the future, but I don't think there are in the books.
09:53They're all kind of classic tropes, aren't they? So if you've got a trope that you love, there's probably a
09:59series for you at some point, but yeah.
10:06I want to first of all ask you a Joa. We see in this season that Lady Danbury is trying
10:12to kind of break free from this position of being Queen Charlotte's best friend.
10:17And since she's been so loyal to the Queen since from the beginning and through the years, did you see
10:25that coming for them at some point throughout the season?
10:29You never know what's coming with Bridgerton and that's what I love about it. If it ever got predictable as
10:36an actor, I would hate it.
10:37And so I love that. And I think the logic of it, I really understand the minute that her brother
10:45comes back into the story.
10:48Lady Danbury has to think about her childhood, her family, who she wants. She doesn't have to think about any
10:55of that normally.
10:55It's like, I'm an independent woman. I'm on my own. My kids are far away. It's just me. And I'm
11:00just controlling this.
11:01And now he's back in the picture and annoyingly with Violet, who is her friend.
11:07Don't take my friends away from me. And, and, and she has to think about who was I?
11:12And I, you know, we, we understand from the, from the prequel that she was brought from Sierra Leone at
11:19age four.
11:20She was raised in this country so that she could marry an old man and have his children.
11:24Nothing about love or romance or any of that stuff. And I think she's, she's done all that stuff.
11:29She's had a good life. She has a good friendship with the queen.
11:32She knows who she is in the court and all of that stuff. But suddenly she's like, but who was
11:37that four year old?
11:39Where did that four year old come from?
11:40What did the country look like when she was three, when she was two, who were her people?
11:45And she can't move forward in her life until she addresses that, you know, these days, maybe we'd have therapy.
11:52But for her, she has to get on a ship and go there. And I think that's really important for
11:59her.
11:59But it's also going to prove a big difficulty for her relationship with the queen.
12:07So I think that's where Danbury is this season. And I did not see that coming in that way.
12:13And I really love the dilemma that it's thrown up and the emotional freedom it's given these two characters to
12:22respond humanly to what's happened with their friendship.
12:28Amazing. And Golda, well, Queen Charlizey can cope with the idea of losing her best friend, her confidence.
12:35And but she's showing like a bit of like a possessive way and a condependence, I guess, towards Lady Danbury.
12:44Yeah. How do you think that will affect the way she lives her life in the case of losing Lady
12:51Danbury in this in the show?
12:53I think it's going to be very difficult. It's a definite shift. It's a change. It's frightening. It's terrifying. It's
13:01emotionally.
13:03Yeah. Will she be alone? You know, she feels alone anyway when her best friend is by her side.
13:09You know, she can't go out and do the things that ordinary people can of that time.
13:14She's in her gilded cage as, you know, Lady Whistledown said. Trapped. She's trapped.
13:19So, yeah, having her best friend come to her and say, I'm going to leave. I need to leave for
13:26myself.
13:27Mm hmm. The way she reacts, you know, as you were, you know, just said she has a childlike reaction
13:35to certain things.
13:36I think the childlike reaction happens for Queen Charlotte as well. You know, no, you can't go.
13:41I won't allow it. You are my subject. I am your queen. And that's the first time that Queen Charlotte
13:47has placed that card.
13:49The, the, the, the, the, what's the word? The status card. Thank you. That's the first time she's played that
13:57card.
13:58And, you know, she hasn't had, there's no kind of, it comes out of nowhere.
14:05It comes out of an emotional reaction to something that has happened with this friendship.
14:11And I think it's going to be very, very difficult. She's, you know, she's going to miss her.
14:15Of course she's going to miss her. Agatha is Charlotte's lifeline to a world of possibility, a world of friendship.
14:26You know, and she's really going to miss that. And because we saw in, in Queen Charlotte, the series, how
14:33much this, this relationship was rooted in, in resistance about a society that doesn't accept those kinds of women in
14:42positions of power.
14:43And this, this was the possible rupture of that. Well, how do you guys think that affects both of them
14:49characters? Would they grow or would they, I don't know, be destroyed?
14:55They have to change. Yeah. I think there, there, there has to be a change because one of the people
15:01in the friendship needs something. Yeah. So it, it has to change physically because one of the people physically needs
15:13to leave. So that's, that's, you know, an obvious change. But then what, how does that affect them emotionally?
15:20Yeah. How does it affect the bond that they have created, the alliance that they've created? As you say, rightly,
15:31these two women of colour having to navigate this world that not necessarily invited them in, you know, that, that,
15:40that wanted to, could have controlled them if they weren't the women that they were.
15:45Exactly. So, yeah, it's, it's, it's a very profound friendship on a survival level, on an emotional level, on a,
15:53actually in temperament, they have a lot of fun. They laugh a lot, you know, and they're, they entertain each
16:00other.
16:01Yeah. And so this, this shift, there's a lot of loss involved, you know, potentially, but you know, friendships in
16:09real life, they go through these changes, don't they? Especially if it's a long friendship, because your life changes. And
16:15how does friendships stay flexible to that? But how do you, you know, I have friends who I might not
16:20see for nine months, because of that's just what happens. But when you see each other, it's, you could have
16:25seen each other yesterday.
16:26And that is a proper, solid friendship, where you are, you know each other, and you are always there for
16:32each other. But sometimes there are shifts, and how do we cope with the shifts?
16:38I want to first ask you, Ruth, Violet has been, has been this woman who only cares about her family,
16:47her children, is, is worried about marrying all of them, but she struggles to finally doing something for herself, such
16:54as opening up to love again. Do you believe that this kind of narrative can inspire women of her age
17:00who are watching the show right now?
17:02I definitely think that yeah, I think, I think, I think it's important to recognize that, you know, you don't
17:08die after a certain age, and that you do have, you know, desires and needs and a need for human
17:15contact. And it's kind of nice to sort of be part of a story that is, is about maturity and,
17:23and, you know, these two people encounter each other, and they both loved and lost.
17:29And I think they have a mutual understanding of that. And I think that is lovely to see. I think
17:35it's important to see people of different ages.
17:38And Daniel, Lord Marcos has took his time to conquer Violet's heart and body. And how do you believe that?
17:48What can you tell me actually about how this relationship will evolve from now on throughout the season?
17:54Yeah, I mean, we'll see, we'll see the roller coaster as it always is. Um, but like you said, yeah,
18:03it's, he's, he's patient and he's genuine as well, you know, and so, um, I think that we'll see more
18:11of that, um, with all its kind of ups and downs and pains as well.
18:18Ruth, uh, those, those scenes of Violet, uh, being insecure about her own body, I guess, is a thing that
18:25women struggles a lot in every way, in every age, actually. Uh, how was the talk to, to do the
18:32scenes where the director and the, uh, the showrunner to, to play this to the audience?
18:37It's very important for the set to feel comfortable. And for me, that comes with the familiarity and the friendships
18:44that you develop with the crew. So, so you therefore feel comfortable around them to make a bit of a
18:50titty of yourself or to kind of be, have a bit of a laugh about it. I think otherwise I
18:56would feel very, very self conscious.
18:58They also, they shoot it in a way where you're, you're comfortable and you don't feel vulnerable. I certainly didn't
19:04have to, um, deal with some scenes like other people have had to do it. Um, so that's fine and
19:13great for me. So, but they're very, they're very accommodating.
19:18You feel safe and comfortable. Um, and you're not doing anything that you don't feel comfortable.
19:24And we didn't feel comfortable as well. Exactly. Exactly.
19:28Good. And Daniel, uh, there's Lord Marcus is a mature man that is searching for love of a mature woman.
19:35That's something that doesn't really happen sometimes because, uh, mature men tend to look younger women.
19:43How do you believe that the, the importance of this kind of plot in Bridgerton to, to show the audience,
19:49there's a, another perspective of love in the mature?
19:52Yeah. I mean, I, I think, you know, there's what, 7 billion people in this world and, and, you know,
20:01there, there are a myriad, um, of different relationship dynamics that, that are out, out and, you know, in the
20:11world.
20:11I think there are certain relationship dynamics that are pushed more than others and are shown and put, had, had
20:17the spotlight shown more than others for whatever reason that is.
20:21Um, but this is, this is a relationship dynamic that does happen. It's not, it's not, it's not an alien
20:27situation, you know?
20:28Um, but, but again, it, it takes, um, a creative team. It takes, um, writers, producers, directors, everyone to actually
20:37say, we're going to show another aspect of reality, you know?
20:41And so, um, I commend everyone for that as well. And it's a, it's a beautiful dynamic to be able
20:46to express.
20:47Thank you so much for the opportunity. It was really nice talking to you both.
20:51You too. Thank you very much.
20:52Quero que comece pelo começo.
20:55Querido e gentil leitor.
21:00E esse foi o Tela Plana. Até semana que vem.
