Netflix Might Find a New Mr. Darcy
By Jennifer Zhan, a Vulture news blog writer covering music, web culture, and television.
Charlotte wants she might relate: Netflix turned 27 years of ages this year, and it does have cash and potential customers. Is the banner prepared to court yet another Jane Austen adjustment? According to RangeNetflix is establishing a brand-new Pride and Prejudice series with scripts composed by author Dolly Alderton, who formerly adjusted her narrative Whatever I Know About Love for television. Alderton's take on the traditional story hasn't been greenlit yet, so it may not occur. Still, Netflix has actually taken on an Austen book before; it launched a motion picture adjustment of Persuasion starring Dakota Johnson in 2022 (although we can't state that our critic Alison Willmore was too convinced by it). A brand-new Pride and Prejudice would certainly have some competitors; Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy's enemies-to-lovers love has actually been informed on screen often times, consisting of by Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen in 2005 and Jennifer Ehle and Colin Firth in 1995. There are presently no cast members connected to Alderton's variation. Essentially, it seems like Mr. Darcy diehards have lots of time to fancast the function (or to begin conserving up for future wet-shirt auctions).
