Then there’s internet boyfriend Louis Partridge as the dastardly Mr. Wickham; Fleabag ’s Jamie Demetriou as the humorless Mr. Collins; Bad Sisters ’ Daryl McCormack as the kindly Mr. Bingley; and the formidable Fiona Shaw as the terrifying Lady Catherine de Bourg, so memorably embodied by Dame Judi Dench in the 2005 version.

Netflix ’s new adaptation of Pride and Prejudice will have a diverse cast. The streaming giant has become known for efforts to increase ethnic representation onscreen, particularly demonstrated in its hit period drama Bridgerton, and has now turned its attention to a British classic.

The first look at Netflix's upcoming adaptation of Jane Austen's immortal 1813 novel 'Pride and Prejudice' is here! Production on the limited series from author Dolly Alderton is now underway.
