Nancy and Ace end up together in the series finale of Nancy Drew, acknowledging that they can't be apart. Director Amanda Row wanted to capture the special moment between Nancy and Ace by keeping the framing still and echoing a previous conversation. The scene is about relief and joy, rather than being a dramatic first kiss. It captures the bubbly, butterfly feeling of being with someone you love.

The fate of Nancy Drew and Ace is explained by the series finale director. Returning for its farewell outing, Nancy Drew promised to bow out with its signature blend of spooky scares and romantic conflict. The show's final episode, "The Light Between Lives", delivers both in spades. In the end, Nancy (Kennedy McMann) and Ace (Alex Saxon) end up together. But the journey to get to that point came with a few sacrifices,...

How has it only been one year since Kate Drew died as of Nancy Drew Season 4 Episode 8?

The only explanation is that this is TV time. Sometimes that involves time jumps of months or years. And sometimes, a series that airs over years only spans a very short period of time for the characters involved.

But it felt jarring that after all Nancy and the Drew Crew have been through, it's all taken place in one year.

The Freaky Friday style twist of having the crew swap bodies was strangely amusing as I had to keep reminding myself who was in whose body.

That is except for Bess being in Nick's body. Tunji Kasim was phenomenal at making me believe Bess now inhabited Nick's body. The voice and mannerisms were spot-on and really funny.

But speaking of Nick, was turning down the town council seat the right move? Wouldn't it...

Arsema Thomas had not seen the Netflix hit Bridgerton before she sent in an audition tape to play young Lady Agatha Danbury in its prequel series, Queen Charlotte, while doing her master’s degree in fine arts in London. But even without having seen the show that has captivated fans globally, she knew she wanted the role.

“There was something interesting or different about this type of storytelling because it’s clearly grabbing people,” Thomas tells THR. “There was something about the fact that I have never seen a character written like this for a Black woman before. Usually, if she’s supporting the main narrative, she doesn’t have a three-dimensional narrative of her own — she only exists in the realm of the lead. And to see that this woman was just so engaging, so mysterious — but in a way that didn’t detract from her complexity, but rather...

In addition to McMann, the cast of Nancy Drew includes Alex Saxon, Leah Lewis, Maddison Jaizani, Tunji Kasim, Riley Smith, and Scott Wolf.

Although the show has built a dedicated fanbase, it was confirmed that Nancy Drew would end after season 4, which premieres May 31, and the latest extended trailer posted by The CW offers a glimpse of what to expect.

Released by The CW, a new trailer for Nancy Drew season 4, which debuts on May 31 on The CW, looks to make good on that promise. Check out the trailer below:

The trailer leans into Nancy Drew's horror aspects, with giant spiders, spooky ghosts, and demons. The adaptation still maintains its sunny presentation and humor otherwise, and the episodes will also be available to stream the next day on The CW's app.

Here’s how “Grey’s Anatomy” and “Bridgerton” creator Shonda Rhimes thinks about sex scenes: carefully.

In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly in support of her just-launched Netflix series “Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story,” the doyen of steamy TV expounded on her philosophy for writing sexy sequences, telling the outlet she really doesn’t “write them any differently,” no matter if they are for broadcast or streaming TV. “I really don’t. I’m kind of a prude,” she said. “So, what I write into the scenes is what I want the audience to get in terms of the character emotion or the character story that’s playing out. I basically write like, ‘This is how we want them to feel.'”

And she’s found plenty of key assistance along the way, including the use of intimacy coordinators on set, of which Rhimes is a major fan. “I’m...

With Netflix’s Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, which debuted all six episodes on Thursday, we know exactly how the titular monarch’s marriage to King George III sparked the diverse world presented in Bridgerton.

It all began with an arranged marriage in the series premiere. A young, strong-willed Charlotte (played by India Amarteifio) was not happy to learn that her brother Adolphus (Tunji Kasim) set her up to marry the King of England (Corey Mylchreest). On the carriage ride to the palace, she threatened to leap from the moving vehicle and impale herself with her delicate and sharp corset made of whalebone.

One of the visual pleasures of Netflix’s “Bridgerton” has been the series’ enthusiasm for bolder colors and costumes inspired — but never limited — by the styles of the Regency era. Clothing is how the show makes clear not just who has the social upper hand but each character’s approach to social climbing and self-confidence.

In the prequel series “Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story,” costume designers Lyn Paolo and Laura Frecon (both Shondaland alumni) use the characters’ clothing to achieve those same ends from the moment we first meet the soon-to-be Queen (India Amarteifio) on her way to marry a man sight unseen. But for inspiration, they looked beyond the series’ era to something far more modern: the Met Ball.

“Laura and I are very conscious of being very respectful of the world that [Season 1 costume designer] Ellen Mirojnick created. It’s quite a wonderful world. But our story is an origin story,...

As one of Netflix’s most popular series, it was only a matter of time before Bridgerton got a spinoff. Created by Shonda Rhimes, Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story changes gears, turning its attention toward the titular character and her love story with King George III. The series jumps between two time periods, balancing multiple storylines. The historical fantasy series sets up a lovely central romance, and gives focus to Lady Danbury’s story, among several others. The prequel series gets too caught up in establishing the monarchs’ love as the bridge between their society’s divide when it could have focused more on the romance itself, but Queen Charlotte has plenty of charisma, heart, and dramatic tension to make it worth recommending.

Decades before she becomes the royal Bridgerton’s characters interact with every social season, a young Queen Charlotte (India Amarteifio) is thrown into a marriage she did not consent to,...

In the first season of the hit Netflix series “Bridgerton,” Lady Agatha Danbury (Adjoh Andoa) proclaims: “We were two separate societies divided by color until a king fell in love with one of us.” It is the first time race is ever overtly mentioned on the show. Since then, many have wondered to what extent race factored into the fictional Regency-era series, especially as it relates to Queen Charlotte (Golda Rosheuvel).

“Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story” not only fills in the gaps of how “Bridgerton’s” Queen rose to power, but it also shares how she navigated that rise through the hazardous terrain of politics, royalty, mental illness and race. It achieves this through a humanizing character portrayal that delivers a surprising emotional punch. In addition, Shonda Rhimes’ six-episode prequel gives agency to supporting characters of the Bridgertonverse.

The series transitions back and forth from the Georgian period, where a...

Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story is a series from Netflix directed by Tom Verica, starring India Ria Amarteifio y Golda Rosheuvel.

If you’re a fan, you’re going to love it. And if you are not, you will discover a wonderful fairy tale with an excellent production and a dynamic that, in our very humble opinion, surpasses the original series at the level of treatment.

Netflix has discovered a niche market (that’s its job), and it knows how to take advantage of it. This time it does it with a stylish spin-off, delving in a deeper story, full of humor and with the magnificent India Ria Amarteifio heading the cast and putting all the irony that the character requires.

Witness the birth of the "Bridgerton"-verse, dear reader!

There's been a lot of buzz about "Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story," a prequel series that will explore the early days of the titular queen's rule. Queen Charlotte, as portrayed by Golda Rosheuvel, has already stolen the show a thousand times over in "Bridgerton"; her marriage to King George III (James Fleet) has stirred an equal amount of curiosity.

Netflix has unveiled the official trailer for its forthcoming “Bridgerton” prequel series, “Queen Charlotte.”

The first full trailer of the upcoming season introduces viewers to a young Queen Charlotte (India Amarteifio), who goes on a journey of self-discovery and love. After being paired in an arranged marriage to King George, a worried Charlotte opens the nearly three-minute clip wondering why she was chosen by the royal family to ascend the throne as the wife of England’s young leader.

“Centered on Queen Charlotte’s rise to prominence and power, this ‘Bridgerton’-verse prequel tells the story of how the young Queen’s marriage to King George sparked both a great love story and a societal shift, creating the world of the Ton inherited by the characters in ‘Bridgerton,'” reads the show’s official logline, per Netflix.

Queen Charlotte is a woman forced into marriage in the full-length trailer for Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story.

“There is reason they wanted me. Why me?” India Amarteifio’s young Charlotte pleads on her way to Buckingham House. “Charlotte, there are worse fates than marrying the King of England,” she’s told.

Throughout the trailer, Bridgerton fans get a look at young versions of several of the characters from the original series, including Lady Agatha Danbury (Arsema Thomas), King George (Corey Mylchreest) and Brimsley (Sam Clemmett).

The prequel to the hit Netflix series Bridgerton, Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, has a release date, cast information, trailers, and more. Bridgerton started off as a series of eight romance novels by Julia Quinn about British nobility in Regency-era London. The book series was adapted for a Netflix show in 2020, and it follows the eight children of the eponymous family as they navigate London high society. Bridgerton has been a huge success for the streaming service, with a second season in 2022, two more seasons planned, and the prequel spin-off Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story.

The London of the television series is an alternate racially integrated version, which allows for a much more racially diverse cast than other period piece shows like Downton Abbey. Notably, recurring character Queen Charlotte is a Black woman in Bridgerton, and she’s played by Golda Rosheuvel, a Guyanese-British actor. Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story...

For everyone experiencing a "Bridgerton"-sized void in their lives since season 2 wrapped up in March last year, there's plenty to look forward to with the franchise cranking out new installments. Aside from seasons 3 and 4, which have already been ordered by the streamer, Netflix's latest addition to the "Bridgerton" franchise is a prequel series centered on Queen Charlotte's rise to prominence and power. The show is already shaping up to be an exciting expansion of the "Bridgerton" universe as evidenced by a first glimpse video shared by Netflix. Now, while the clip might not contain the usual steamy bodice-ripping in the middle of a rain-soaked field, there's a charming, romantic meet-cute between Queen Charlotte and King George when he finds her trying to escape an arranged marriage situation dangerously.

Here's all we know about the show including its cast, release date, trailer, and more!
