It is a limited series entitled “Pride and Prjudice” with an exceptional cast composed of Emma Corrin (Nosferatu) as Elizabeth Bennet, Jack Lowden (Slow Horses) as Mr Darcy and Olivia Colman (The Crown) as Mrs Bennet.
Behind this new serial adaptation of “Pride and Prejudice” is the pen of the English writer and screenwriter Dolly Alderton and the series is currently in production. Behind the camera, however, there is Euros Lyn (Heartstoppers).
But let’s find out something more about Netflix’s new “Pride and Prejudice”.
Pride and Prejudice: The Plot
The novel Pride and Prejudice tells the story of five sisters struggling to find a husband in the English provinces of the late eighteenth century. The Bennet family, in fact, has five daughters, Jane, Elizabeth, Mary, Catherine and Lydia and the goal of their mother, Mrs. Bennet, is to see each of her daughters married given the lack of a son who could become heir to the estate in Hertfordshire. The story focuses on the love between Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy, an initially conflictual and prejudiced relationship that then turns into something completely different after various family scandals and intrigues, giving space to love, passion and a final marriage.
