Bridgerton Has a New Francesca: Meet Hannah Dodd, the Actress Playing the Third Bridgerton Sister
A Change in the Bridgerton Family
The highly anticipated third season of Netflix's hit period drama Bridgerton is set to introduce a new face to the beloved Bridgerton family. Hannah Dodd, a rising star known for her roles in the television drama "Anatomy of a Scandal" and the film "Enola Holmes 2," has been cast as Francesca Bridgerton, taking over the role from Ruby Stokes.
Stokes, who played Francesca in the first two seasons of the series, departed from the show after season 2 due to scheduling conflicts. Dodd's casting as her replacement marks a significant change for the Bridgerton family, which has been portrayed by the same actors since the series' inception.

Francesca is the third-eldest Bridgerton sibling and has been a relatively minor character in the series thus far. However, Dodd's portrayal is expected to bring a new depth and nuance to the character.
"Francesca is a complex and intriguing character," Dodd said in a statement. "She's intelligent, witty, and has a quiet strength that I'm excited to explore."
Conclusion
The casting of Hannah Dodd as Francesca Bridgerton adds a new layer of intrigue to the upcoming season of the popular period drama. With her proven acting chops and fresh perspective on the character, Dodd is sure to captivate audiences and leave a lasting impression on the Bridgerton universe.
