Bridgerton’s Regé-Jean Page Is Returning to Netflix in What Could Be His Sexiest Role Yet
Regé-Jean Page may want to leave the ton for good.
Five years after he made headlines for exiting Bridgerton following one season, Regé shared a head-turning response to whether he’ll make a return to the series in the future.
“Listen, I don’t know if you’re on the internet, but a lot of people are saying we need you back on Bridgerton,” Leah Henry asked the British actor at the ESSENCE Black Women in Hollywood Awards March 12. “Is there a chance you would ever return?”
To this, Regé replied, “You know it’s funny you say that because I’m not on the internet,” later adding that he’d have to take the interviewer’s “word for it” that fans want to see his character Simon Basset onscreen once again beside Daphne Bridgerton, played by Phoebe Dynevor.
After Leah tried once more, asking “Maybe we’ll see you again?” Regé replied, “Thank you very much,” before exiting the interview.
His comments come weeks after showrunner Jess Brownell revealed that the Netflix show has no plans to recast Regé or Phoebe in future seasons.
