Regé-Jean Page
In his latest interview, elusive actor and star of Netflix's Bridgerton Regé Jean Page opened up about his perspective on the time he spent filming the series as his character Simon Basset, the Duke of Hastings, and how he feels not being a part of the hit show's upcoming second season.
Following reports that Regé-Jean Page decided not to return as a cast member on the hit Netflix show Bridgerton due to "creative differences" with the show's executive producer Shonda Rhimes, the latter is now addressing all the controversy surrounding the actor's departure from the show.
After his departure from the series was announced just over a week ago, Bridgerton fans are seemingly getting more insight as to why Regé-Jean Page won't be returning for season 2 as the Duke of Hastings (a.k.a Simon Basset) on the hit Netflix show.
It has been announced that breakout star Regé-Jean Page will not appear in the second season of Bridgerton. The news was shared on Friday, April 2, making it incapable of being an April Fool's joke -- thus enraging fans of the show, but not the book.
