The casting director for Bridgerton, the popular Netflix period drama, has recently opened up about her shocking experiences with the audition process. Kelly Valentine Henry, who has been working on the show since its launch in 2020, has been bombarded with unsolicited audition tapes that are crossing the line into the realm of X-rated.
It seems that in their quest for fame, aspiring actors and actresses are going to extreme measures to stand out and catch the attention of the casting team. With the show's reputation for steamy scenes, it's not surprising that some hopefuls are taking their auditions to a whole new level.
According to Henry, she receives these X-rated tapes on a daily basis, and they are not for the faint of heart. While they may not show actual sex, they are certainly pushing the boundaries and are quite "punchy." These tapes are not just limited to suggestive photos, but some are even sending in almost-nude pictures.
With the recent focus on characters Penelope Featherington and Colin Bridgerton in season 3, it seems that the auditions for the upcoming seasons are also reflecting this trend. Henry is currently in the process of casting for season 4, which is set to revolve around the character of Sophie Beckett and her relationship with Benedict Bridgerton.
Despite the overwhelming amount of interest in the coveted role, Henry was left baffled by one particular applicant who went to great lengths to stand out. This person sent a massive, heavy-duty plastic banner of herself in a Regency-style costume. While it may seem extreme, it highlights the fierce competition and desperation to secure a role on the hit show.
However, fans of Bridgerton may have to wait a while for season 4, as showrunner Jess Brownell revealed it could be up to two years before it hits screens. With each season taking around eight months to film and extensive post-production work, it's a lengthy process. But the team is working to try and speed up the process, with the goal of releasing new seasons more quickly.
In the meantime, fans can continue binging the first three seasons and eagerly anticipate the next installment. If you have a celebrity story, video, or pictures, you can get in touch with the entertainment team at The Agency by emailing them or calling their hotline. Who knows, you may just have what it takes to be the next breakout star of Bridgerton.
