We got our first official look at the upcoming Netflix miniseries adaptation of Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice starring Emma Corrin as Elizabeth Bennet, Jack Lowden as Mr. Darcy, Olivia Coleman as Mrs. Bennet... and just announced: Rufus Sewell as Mr. Bennet. We just had to talk about this latest period drama news and casting update.
We share our thoughts on how this new version will hold up to the iconic 1995 BBC miniseries starring Jennifer Ehle and Colin Firth and the 2005 Focus Features movie starring Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen.
We also reference recent casting updates to the upcoming Sense & Sensibility movie by Focus Features.
Will this spark a new generation of Jane Austen and period drama fans? Should we be excited or worried?
