Award-winning series creator Shonda Rhimes has found another hit at Netflix with The Bridgerton prequel series, Queen Charlotte. Finding a prominent home within Netflix’s Top 10, the series has proven to be successful and led many to ask whether a second season is in the cards. However, the project was initially billed as a limited series and wasn’t thought to be a long-running story, but Rhimes hasn’t shut the door on the possibility of a second chapter just yet.
“There have been questions, but I’m not having conversations about it yet,” Rhimes told Entertainment Weekly.
“I could live with Charlotte and George forever, but we told a very specific, closed-ended story that I think is a complete tale of this complicated, imperfect love. But I’m not ruling anything out because I never know.”
Rhimes is not the only person within the Queen Charlotte universe who is open to working on a second season. Arsema Thomas, who plays the role of a young Agatha, said that she would also be interested in coming back for a second season.
“I never thought I could love like this until I had my own child. I feel like I gave birth, and Shonda Rhimes is her daddy. I am the mommy. It would be amazing to inhabit that space again,” Thomas said.
“But also where we’ve left her off now, she’s a good space. If that’s the last time I get to be her, she’s empowered and she’s ready to walk on her own two feet. But if I do get a call for doing it again, I will take it.”
