Quote

Best-selling author Dolly Alderton and director Euros Lyn (Heartstopper) are set to bring Pride and Prejudice to the screen once again, in a brand-new six-part limited series.

The adaptation will hew closely to the original text, reuniting existing fans with the timeless novel, while also introducing a new generation to Austen.

The series will start production in the UK this year.

Published in 1813, Pride and Prejudice is arguably Austen’s most famous novel. The story has previously been adapted into multiple formats, notably with the BBC’s 1995 miniseries that starred Jennifer Ehle and Colin Firth and Joe Wright’s 2005 film that starred Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen. 

Pride and Prejudice will be Netflix’s second stab at an Austen adaptation, following their divisive take on Persuasion back in 2022.

 

CAST:

  • Emma Corrin will play Elizabeth Bennet.
  • Jack Lowden will play Mr. Darcy.
  • Olivia Colman will play Mrs. Bennet.
