This is what fans expect from the actress and even from the new Amazon show. However, Exciting Times' proposal is not to bring a series with period settings.
However, the plot is based on the book of the same name (as with Bridgerton). The program is also a romance full of romantic tensions and must contain spicy scenes.. The series will be directed by Cooper Raiff.
The story recounts the life of an Irish woman who lives abroad and teaches English to rich children. She gets involved in a love triangle filled with passion and obsessions.
It is worth mentioning that the episodes are still in the recording and production phase. Therefore, Amazon did not disclose when the launch will be made on its streaming platform.
Another breakpointcation is whether the actress will continue to appear in Bridgerton after closing a deal with the competitor.
recent interview
While there is some doubt about the future, Dynevor will be present in Bridgerton Season 2. She revealed how her character (Daphne) will look. After all, the fictional husband of the actress in the series (Simon Basset) is not part of the cast of the new season.
The artist gave an interview to The Wrap and made a warning to fans. According to her, the sequel to Bridgerton will be "definitely different". After all, the character Daphne gives way to another protagonist and becomes a supporting character in the story. The spotlight turns to brother Anthony Bridgerton, played by actor Jonathan Bailey.
“I've said this before, but I think fans who have read the books are aware that each season will focus on a different brother's journey […]. And it might be a little bit more, not a shock but a surprise for fans who love Daphne and Simon's story so much,” she said.
The actress highlights an important point. The series is based on the literary work of the same name by writer Julia Quinn. So far, the plot has been pretty faithful to the events of the books. Thus, the continuation of the series on Netflix is expected to remain close to the faithful account.
However, fans really got attached to Daphne, even more so after the character became a mother. At the end of the first season, her baby is born alongside the Duke of Hastings. Although her father does not appear, the series should not abandon the character so soon. Phoebe, however, claims that her focus will be more on the Bridgerton family.
“He [Duque] will certainly be referred to a lot. I think we will see the baby […]. We're going to focus more on [Daphne's] relationship with her family."
