Bridgerton Season 2 production has had almost as much drama as the series after being abruptly halted twice due to COVID-19 cases. But, the Netflix show is back in production.

“We are back under way. We had to delay because of COVID, but we’re back in it,” showrunner Chris Van Dusen told Variety. “Right now I’m in post, editing our first couple episodes, which are looking great.”

Back in July, the show was shut down indefinitely after a second confirmed case. Bridgerton was one of several high-profile projects shooting in the U.K. that was impacted by the pandemic. Another notable one was Game of Thrones prequel series House of the Dragon.

Season 2 will focus on Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey), the family’s eldest son, and his journey to find a suitable partner.

“We pick up Anthony after we’ve seen what he’s been through with his mistress. He’s thinking, ‘Was that love?’ Some would call it that, others would not. We’re exploring those concepts of duty and honor once again,” Van Dusen teased.
