Bridgerton's Luke Newton: From Boy Band Member to Regency-Era Heartthrob
Bridgerton Season 3: Behind-the-Scenes Prank on Luke Newton
The Heartthrob's Past: Luke Newton's Boy Band Days
Luke Newton, the charming actor who portrays Colin Bridgerton in the popular Netflix series, has recently captured the hearts of many fans. However, before his rise to stardom in the Regency-era drama, Newton had a rather different musical experience.
In an interview promoting Bridgerton season three, Nicola Coughlan, who plays Penelope Featherington, revealed a prank she had played on Newton. She brought up his past as a member of the boy band "Roadtrip." Newton's youthful passion for music and his time in the band were a surprise to some Bridgerton viewers.
Before embarking on his acting career, Newton was a quarter of the vocal group Roadtrip. The band gained recognition through its appearances on the British TV talent show, "The X Factor." Newton's talent as a singer and performer was evident from an early age, but his path ultimately led him to the world of acting.
Bridgerton fans may be amused to discover the actor's musical roots. The contrast between his current role as a sophisticated Regency gentleman and his past as a boy band member adds a unique dimension to his character.
