The cinematography already looks soft and atmospheric. If the chemistry hits and the dialogue keeps that classic wit, this could be a standout adaptation.
Period drama season is officially back.

Emma Corrin on the rooftop at sunset, blushing at the sound of galloping hooves… then Jack Lowden as Mr. Darcy rides in. Pure yearning. Dropping later this year — we are NOT ready 🔥
Jack Lowden too has good experience in such kind of dramas. He played Nikolai Rostov in the BBC adaptation of "War And Peace." He won the BAFTA Scotland Award for "Benediction" in 2021. He played the part of poet, Siegfried Sassoon in that project. The success of "Wuthering Heights" has shown that people still like to watch such shows. Fans of Jane Austen's novels are known to be passionate and are curious to see how Lowden fares as Mr Darcy.
