According to the streamer, the fictional six-episode mini-series centers "on Queen Charlotte's rise to prominence and power," and "tells the story of how the young Queen's marriage to King George sparked both a great love story and a societal shift, creating the world of the Ton inherited by the characters in Bridgerton."
In the official teaser trailer, viewers are introduced to a young Charlotte, played by India Amarteifio, who arrives in London during its regency-era. She meets her husband George in a garden, and clips follow of the two of them in the ups and downs of their marriage.
The teaser ends with a voice-over of Charlotte saying, "I am the queen."
In classic Bridgerton fashion, the teaser also includes ballroom scenes, dances and romantic, steamy scenes between the series' main stars.
