Luke Thompson Shirtless, Girlfriend, Bridgerton Hunk

Luke Thompson Shirtless, Girlfriend, Bridgerton Hunk (Updated). Are you excited for Bridgerton coming on Netflix this Christmas? We are looking really looking forward to the show and we are hoping that Shonda Rhimes will deliver something we’ll be talking about for years unlike Ryan Murphy’s Netflix shows which are glitzy but average.

Anyhoo, we’ve been blogging about the hot guys of Bridgerton — see our post on Luke Newton for instance — and this is our latest installment.

Famewatchers, meet British actor Luke Thompson who will be playing the role of Benedict Bridgerton:

More about the role that Luke from bridgerton.fandom.com: “The second eldest of the Bridgerton siblings, Benedict yearns for something other than the endless round of dazzling parties he finds himself attending every evening. Sensitive and endearing, Benedict dreams of turning his artistic hobby into a full-fledged career, and soon finds himself looking far outside the world of the ton in order to achieve it.”

Luke as Benedict with co-stars Jonathan Bailey (as Anthony Bridgerton) and Luke Newton (as Colin Bridgerton).
