Changes in Netflix: the producers of "Bridgerton" in a dramatic message to the actresses about the continuation of the series Israel today

The British Sun newspaper reports that the producers of Bridgerton, the Netflix romantic period drama from the creator of Shonda Rhimes, have informed the cast that from now on they will not be asked to wear corsets on the set, even though it is one of the hottest fashion items of the period in which the series takes place.

The reason for the decision is mainly related to the complaints of the actresses, according to which the tight corsets that they are asked to attach to their bodies during 12 to 14 hour workdays cause them physical damage, such as blue marks on their bodies, wounds and even breathing problems.

Just last month, for example, actress Simone Ashley, who plays Kate Sharma in the second season of "Bridgerton," complained that she hates wearing corsets because they "push everything to the bottom of your stomach. What this means is that when you take them off, you're left with a little bump there." . I hated wearing those corsets in the photo shoot."

At the same time and in addition to the bruises the actresses are suffering from, it turns out that the liberating move also has a social reason.

A source close to the production of the series, who chose not to identify himself, explained to The Sun that "in today's world, it is not appropriate to create a show in which women are allegedly encouraged to narrow their waists. Perhaps this reflects the period in which the series takes place, but the television channels and streaming companies want to portray themselves as progressive." the source claimed.

"Either way, this is a defining moment for the series."

The third season (and without the corsets) of "Bridgerton" is expected to arrive on Netflix towards the end of this year.

The series was even renewed by the streaming giant for a fourth season, which will be broadcast in 2024 or the year after.
