Luke Newton is one of the actors of the moment, especially after the release of the new episodes of Bridgerton, which belong to the recently added third season of the popular TV show on Netflix.

The young star portrays Colin Bridgerton, one of the older brothers in the aristocratic family, and he stars in a passionate love story with Penelope Featherington (played by Nicola Coughlan).

As expected, the series has opened doors for him in the entertainment industry, and he will soon be involved in some interesting projects, in addition to the second part of the romantic period drama.
