It hasn't been easy to read scripts over the years, as Newton is dyslexic and was diagnosed with ADHD. It actually made him think when he was younger that he couldn't be an actor. He told Page Six, "If I get sent a project [and asked], 'Can you read this script and tape for it over the weekend?' It would take me four days, while other actors can smash through a script in a couple of hours. It's definitely challenging for me." However, he added that when he originally got his "Bridgerton" scripts, he found it a bit easier to read them, because he was so drawn to the story.
