For Regé-Jean Page, it was his ambitions to pursue a career in Hollywood, and not in television series, which made him snub such a delightful offer. 

The page might be out, but Shelley Conn and Calam Lynch are all set to feature in Bridgerton.

However, you can never say never, and Regé-Jean Page might be a part of the show in the later seasons if it continues to be as good as the first one.
