Knives were taken off the streets in London and melted down to build a free outdoor gym

Since Downton Abbey stopped airing each Sunday in 2015, lots of fans have been left asking themselves, “What is a weekend?”

Lucky for us Crawley enthusiasts, the British historic drama is lastly returning– this time as a function movie.

Focus Features chairman Peter Kujawski revealed today that Carnival Films will handle the next chapter of the household drama with developer Julian Fellowes composing the movie script and Brian Percival, the director of the series’ pilot, at the production’s helm.

Downton Abbey‘s initial run was extremely granted, winning 3 Golden Globes, a Special BAFTA, and 15 Emmys. Not surprisingly, expectations for the movie are high.

Although recording is slated to start within weeks, information of the motion picture’s facility have yet to be exposed. Manufacturers are assuring the “initial primary cast,” however have actually not defined who that involves.

Assuming Lily James returns, her current increase to motion picture fame in Baby Driver and Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again might place Lady Rose at the leading edge of the story. (We’re thinking casting does not consist of a Jon Snow-esque return for Matthew Crawley or Lady Sybil, however do not hesitate to dream.)

If developers get where our characters ended, the Crawley household must be doing rather well. The series’ end foreshadowed the ultimate decrease of the British upper class, however much of the household had actually moved up until now far from counting on their status that it should not be too huge of an issue.

The historic timeline does line up with the ultimate spread of the Great Depression, however we ought to still be rather away from the start of the 2nd world war.

A best date has actually not been revealed, however you can capture up or think back on Downton Abbey‘s 6 seasons by means of Amazon in the meantime.
