Emma Corrin (Nosferatu, Black Mirror), Jack Lowden (Slow Horses, Benediction), and Olivia Colman (The Favourite, The Crown) are set to play Elizabeth Bennet, Mr. Darcy and Mrs. Bennet, respectively in Netflix’s Pride and Prejudice limited series.

The series is written by Dolly Alderton (Everything I Know About Love) and directed by Euros Lyn (Heartstopper), who also executive produces with Corrin, making their EP debut, Laura Lankester, Will Johnston and Louise Mutter for Lookout Point. Lisa Osborne produces.

Jane Austen’s classic novel follows “Elizabeth Bennet, an unmarried woman and the second of five daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Bennet from Hertfordshire, near London. Their home can only be inherited by males in the family, so the pressure is on for the daughters to marry well or risk losing everything. While out in society, Elizabeth interacts with single men like Mr. Darcy, an outwardly curmudgeon who is misunderstood.”

Deadline first reported on the casting news for Pride and Prejudice.
