India Amarteifio plays young Queen Charlotte

Who is young Queen Charlotte? The young queen is pretty much like any teenage girl: she's opinionated, sarcastic and hilarious in equal measure. She doesn't quite understand why she's being told to marry a man who she's never met but would do anything for her older brother, who raised her after the death of their parents. She comes from the small German town of Mecklenburg-Strelitz but how will she fare as the new Queen consort of Great Britain and Ireland?

Where have I seen India Amarteifio before? While this may be Amarteifio's first major leading TV role, she has starred in multiple well-known dramas. She featured in season 4 of Line of Duty as Roz Huntley's (Thandiwe Newton) daughter Sophie, in the Doctor Who season 9 episode The Magician's Apprentice and in Sky crime drama The Tunnel. More recently, she has starred in 2019 film Military Wives and in the 2022 sci-fi series The Midwich Cuckoos.

Corey Mylchreest plays young King George III

Who is young King George III? When we meet the young king, he has recently inherited the throne. His somewhat overbearing mother has arranged his marriage to Charlotte, which has been deemed "the great experiment" but is ultimately a politically advantageous personal union for both Great Britain and Germany. Even so, it's clear that the king and queen have undying love for each other but will other aspects of their lives get in their way?

Where have I seen Corey Mylchreest before? Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story is Mylchreest's first major TV role, but the actor has starred in various Shakespeare productions throughout his time at iconic British acting school RADA. He has also starred in Netflix's Sandman and short film Mars.

Golda Rosheuvel plays Queen Charlotte

Who is Queen Charlotte? The formidable, elegant and no-nonsense queen returns for this prequel series in some clever crossover to Bridgerton.

She wants one of her many children to produce an heir, but will she get one?

Where have I seen Golda Rosheuvel before? Rosheuvel is known for her multiple roles both on stage and on screen, she has appeared in popular British dramas like Luther, Eastenders and Death in Paradise while also starring in feature films Lady Macbeth and Dune. But of course many will know her for her series regular role in Bridgerton, a role she's held since the series' inception back in 2020.

Arsema Thomas plays young Agatha Danbury

Who is young Agatha Danbury? The young Agatha Danbury is someone who is quite unlike the older version of the character that fans know and love in Bridgerton.

Who is Lady Agatha Danbury? Lady Danbury is one of the high society flyers that has appeared throughout the two seasons of Bridgerton.

Where have I seen Adjoa Andoh before? Andoh has starred in Doctor Who as Francine Jones, but has had many starring and feature roles in her time as a stage, screen and film actress. She has also starred in Law & Order: UK, Line of Duty, Death in Paradise, Silent Witness and The Witcher, to name a few.

James Fleet plays King George III

Who is King George III? While Bridgerton fans obviously know King George for being Queen Charlotte's husband and the reigning king, he has remained a somewhat mysterious character throughout the two seasons of the original series. While the shows may be fictional, King George III was a real monarch who, at the time of his death, was the longest-lived and longest-reigning British monarch.

Where have I seen James Fleet before? Fleet is a well-known actor who is perhaps best known for his roles in iconic British romcom Four Weddings and a Funeral and The Vicar of Dibley. He has also starred in Outlander, Unforgotten, Belgravia and stars in ITV's latest period drama, Tom Jones.

Ruth Gemmell plays Violet, Dowager Countess Bridgerton

Who is Violet, Dowager Countess Bridgerton? Violet Bridgerton is the loveable, doting matriarch of the Bridgerton clan.

Connie Jenkins-Greig as young Violet Ledger

Who is young Violet Ledger? Before she was Violet Bridgerton, the optimistic teen was Violet Ledger who was curious, close to her father and unknowing of the way high society was set up. She's on the cusp of her own debut into society but is the hopeful, doe-eyed woman we know her to be later in the original series.

Where have I seen Connie Jenkins-Greig before? The young actress has starred in Mr Selfridge and The Take Down, as well as various short films and video games as a voice actor.

Kier Charles as Lord Ledger

Who is Lord Ledger? Violet's father, Lord Ledger is friendly and amiable and may be a Lord, but isn't an archetypal figure of high society. Instead, he spends his time trying to educate his daughter about life and making sure they have good experiences together. But he is also hiding a secret of his own, that is revealed later in the series.

Where have I seen Kier Charles before? Charles has starred in many dramas throughout his career including The Salisbury Poisonings, Quiz, Flesh and Blood, Shadow and Bone and Death in Paradise, to name a few.

Katie Brayben plays Lady Vivian Ledger

As well as starring in films like Cherry and The War Below, Clemmett has also guest starred in British dramas like Holby City, Doctors, Foyle's War and The Musketeers.

Freddie Dennis plays Reynolds

Who is Reynolds? Reynolds is to the king what Brimsley is to the queen. He's equally as no-nonsense but is also tasked with making sure that the king's secret doesn't get made public, or even gets back to his wife. It's a difficult job but is one that Reynolds obviously takes very seriously.

Where have I seen Freddie Dennis before? Dennis has also starred in HBO's The Nevers.

Cyril Nri plays Lord Danbury

Who is Lord Danbury? Because we know Lady Danbury to be a widow, it may come as a surprise to viewers to see her married to an older man. Lord Danbury is much older than Agatha, but is oblivious to the fact they're in a loveless marriage.

Where have I seen Cyril Nri before? Many will likely recognise Nri for his role as Superintendent Adam Okaro in long-running police drama, The Bill. More recently, he has guest starred in Devils, The ABC Murders, Holier Than Thou and The Power.
