Netflix's Pride and Prejudice Premieres Dec. 3 with Corrin and Lowden

Netflix has released the full trailer for its six-part Pride and Prejudice adaptation, set to premiere on December 3, 2026. The limited series, written by Dolly Alderton and directed by Euros Lyn, stars Emma Corrin as Elizabeth Bennet and Jack Lowden as Mr. Darcy, with Olivia Colman as Mrs. Bennet and Rufus Sewell as Mr. Bennet.

The trailer showcases key moments from Jane Austen's 1813 novel, including Elizabeth and her sister Jane (Freya Mavor) discussing their limited futures on a rooftop, Mrs. Bennet reciting the novel's famous opening line—"It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife"—and a lake scene where Elizabeth observes Mr. Darcy skipping stones. Supporting characters visible in the footage include Jamie Demetriou as Mr. Collins, Daryl McCormack as Mr. Bingley, Louis Partridge as Mr. Wickham, and Fiona Shaw as Lady Catherine de Bourgh, alongside the Bennet sisters: Jane (Mavor), Lydia (Rhea Norwood), Kitty (Hollie Avery), and Mary (Hopey Parish).

Alias screenwriter Alderton penned all six episodes and serves as executive producer alongside Euros Lyn, Laura Lankester, Will Johnston, and Louise Mutter for Lookout Point. Corrin also earns her first credit as executive producer. Alderton has described the adaptation as both faithful to Austen's original text and meticulously period-accurate, while the six-episode format allows for deeper exploration of overlooked plotlines and characters. Corrin stated that the adaptation successfully balances the novel's period authenticity with modern relevance, while Lowden highlighted the story's universal themes of joy, romance, and hope as reasons for its enduring appeal and contemporary significance.
