Phoebe Dynevor, aka Daphne Bridgerton, appeared on an episode of The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon to talk about how she almost gave up acting, and what to expect from Bridgerton‘s second season. She told Fallon that prior to filming Bridgerton, “I had been living in LA for about nine months, and I was kind of at that point where I was ready to go home, and sort of throw in the towel. Then I got a call saying ‘can you come in and read with Regé-Jean next week?’ And I was like ‘well that’s annoying, I’ll have to move my flight’, and then the next day they were like ‘well, Netflix will pay for your flight to London because you’ve gotta be in rehearsals the next day.’”

On the topic of her chemistry with Regé-Jean Page, Dynevor explained that “we both had dance rehearsals together, and we were both kind of nervous about the dancing part. I remember we had a few rehearsals and one of them got recorded so we got to watch it back and we were like ‘oh, eye contact really does a lot of the work’ and the dancing.”

The actor also went on to talk about the upcoming second season of the show, which Page will not be a part of. She said that “the special thing about Bridgerton, that I think not a lot of shows really do is that every season centres around a different love story. So season two is centred around Anthony, my older brother, and his coming out into the season and his finding a match, hopefully,” adding that “I’m really excited to watch the show as an audience and see what the show has in store for him.”
