The best part is she's not Korean American, Korean Canadian or Korean British she is Korean Australian! Out of all the Western Korean Diasporas this is one of the lens' we see the least along with Korean-New Zealanders.
Surprisingly I am not upset. Sorry to all my blonde out there but I am glad that Sophie is different! Kind of tired of how many blonde are in the books 😅. So this is a nice surprise. No hate just a nice change.
I kind of expected them to pick an asian actress, actually (and I'm glad I was right). We had not yet seen one, and polin's was a quite unrepresentative season (at least if we look at the main characters), while this show - as any big money-making machine - uses trendy politics to create shallow shock value. It was quite predictable, I'd say. Nice pick, nevertheless, really. Doesn't feel random at all. Cindarelly is probably a Chinese story in origin, so I expected them to pick either a Chinese, Korean or Japanese actress (as most Americans barely tell the difference). And the ideas of delicate beauty and art associated to Korean culture suit the mood of the upcoming season (and match Benedict's personality quite well). That makes it also clear why she would stand out so much among all of his... acquaintances. Shondaland production team is def one step ahead: the care for such small details, from casting to costumes and makeup, is impressive. They managed to turn such low quality stuff into a show appealing to a more highly-educated audience precisely thanks to that.
I'm excited for this season. The story of Sofie and Benedict was actually the beginning of Brigdethon. A Cinderella retelling that gave us this whole universe! And yea I know that that is the third book, not the first. But if I remember correctly I did read that the Author formed the family and the series by thinking to write about a Cinderella story
@@sandramara4394 I read the book. What's wrong? Also, speak English on the Internet, please. I am also not a native English-speaker, but out of respect for others, I don't write in my language on YT.
I hope they capture her beauty. Pictures here are great but like sometimes the angle makes her face crooked. Or maybe it’s just my eyes. I’ll take a look later hahahaha. Woohooo she looks good.
I mean having a black actress as the queen Charlotte should say a lot about diversity. So let's accept diverse casting, please. Also i think the story might take place not in years, maybe sophie will start in the brrigerton household from the beginning.
Has this been official confrim yet by shonaland and the Bridgerton show producers i wouldnt get to excited just yet i would wait for the official news from the proper channels to come out and watch the video that Bridgerton will create introducing sophie which i am guessing will be out next week at some point as they are starting to film September 16th i think they will announce sophie first like they should do then after a few weeks introduce the new characters as they need to announce which young actor will be playing colin and penelopes son the new lord featherington and reveal his name and with Antony and kate returning they will also need to show us who will be playing thier son or daughter and thier name
I knew they were gonna cast an Asian. Just as they casted a 2 black men (Simon and John), and Indian (Kate) and an Irish (Okay even though Pen isn’t Irish but the actress is 😂)
I have waited Beckett and Sophie love story, but why they don't make Sophie as she is in the book? I mean how she is described in the book. Light brown hear, not black.
@@Lissemt Yup exactly and I feel like that's great as does Julia Quinn and it's what Shonda Rhimes wants. Sad we never got to see Still Star Crossed continued but perhaps it was wise for Shonda to get it produced by Netflix instead of ABC
Im not hatibg diversity bcs i loved it however i guess they want to speed run doing "woke" things instead make it slower and giving every "woke" have good introduction. Just with Francessca true love introduction in s3 really too fast and changing focal point of the books. And this series no going be adaptation anymore but fan/series itself thing. I love if they want to change it to black but its too strong if we change to oriental one. Just like cast turkiye actress or mixed asian actress who really can balance it. Don so sudden change with gad introduction more like season 3. If want to do it any race, people should know in Asian we also have other Asian not only Big 3. If they do that its just like pointing diversity into one branch again. White, black, and asian (the big three + india). Bruh, not fair for the rest of race that supposed be they giving "woke" because woke is diversity and beside indian plus big 3 we have other asian as well. Im not hating on indian and big three. Just hating the peole who do diversity but they only just pointing and give it common representation.
Ma per carità... Ci siamo finite le attrici bionde con gli occhi azzurri, Bella come nella descrizione del libro. Mi dispiace ma questa Sophie non rappresenta quella del libro... Sono delusa anche perché Benedict é meraviglioso.... Delusione delusione totale
It is so hard to cast an english lady that look like an english lady in the regency period? I am so tired of this catch them all cast. Yes, it is fantasy but they already diverted Eloise character so much that her story would look forced. And Sophie was described once as an English rose if I remember right how a pretty clearly oriental lady would be described as an English rose when she looks nothing like an English lady in regency? Really... It is so hard to cast English looking people for an English serie debelped during the English regency period?
I get your frustration but you’re also foolish for still hoping for character accuracy this far into the Netflix series of the books .,. Starting from the very first season, Simon supposedly had icy blue eyes in the book ,. But we all know how he looked in the Netflix series.. that should have gotten something through your thick head .,idk why you are acting so betrayed

Nice comment

As a blonde person i can say, i do not care if a person is blonde or not it doesn't effect the story and we have Legally Blonde for rep.

This news just made my day, can't wait to see them in 2 freaking years 😅
Omg it’s so painful to imagine how far we are now from the episode 1 😭😭

She is beautiful.
She is perfect for this role!
Não é não E só você ler o livro!

I love all the diversity! The more the merrier.
they also wanna ride the Korean wave
Why not? It'll bring in more viewers.
I love the way they are adding diversity! It is actually what has given the series an edge in my opinion. It is so refreshing!❤
I’m excited for S4 it looks interesting.
I hope they capture her beauty. Pictures here are great but like sometimes the angle makes her face crooked. Or maybe it’s just my eyes. I’ll take a look later hahahaha. Woohooo she looks good.
Pretty sure it's AI generated 😅
@@briannathompson2864 maybe that’s why hahahaahhaahah

I’m so excited
Remember in the book when Benedict blackmailed her to work for his mom
adding the diversity is their marketing magnet..
Look isn’t the issue the issue is are they true to the story.
Sounds interesting.
I hope he finds his interest in art again, this season he said he had no interests! Wtf 😂
I wonder if she's going to be from Australia since her actress is from there

As final result, Chris Colfer not play as Sophie Beckett but hopefully Sophie marries Ben at end of season 4
I think everyone predicted this. The only ethnicity they didn't cover 😂
finally the show has an asian. I am really looking forward to Benedict's season
I hope it would not be too much of a pain finding a Asian-like woman in mask in a Western context 😅 I genuinely don't know how this will go
whatt so soon
I knew they were gonna cast an Asian. Just as they casted a 2 black men (Simon and John), and Indian (Kate) and an Irish (Okay even though Pen isn’t Irish but the actress is 😂)

The character is not woke enough! Just saying!
Oh boo hoo. Simon was also meant to be blonde haired and blue eyed but he is not
It’s hard to get the idea this is Sophie. I just hope that when I start watching the story I like it
@@SaraLedID4dlike this is the 4th season most of them are not cast as the books
@@Lissemt Yup exactly and I feel like that's great as does Julia Quinn and it's what Shonda Rhimes wants. Sad we never got to see Still Star Crossed continued but perhaps it was wise for Shonda to get it produced by Netflix instead of ABC
It's not Polin

Not particularly like Ben character anyway.
Sophie is going to be a Sam. I don't trust any of these reveals. It's a 2 year wait they are going to keep changing things up 😑
😅😅 no I think here we can be sure ❤️🫶🏼

Yep, it is that hard! They didn't have an Asian in the series yet 🤡

이런 야동같은 드라마 출연이 좋은건지..
Lol
