Netflix Releases First Trailer for Pride and Prejudice Miniseries

It signals Netflix’s plan to blend a faithful Jane Austen adaptation with a contemporary tone to draw streaming audiences before the December launch.

Overview

  • The first trailer, which Netflix released Wednesday, October 28, confirms Emma Corrin as Elizabeth Bennet, Jack Lowden as Mr. Darcy, Olivia Colman as Mrs. Bennet and Rufus Sewell as Mr. Bennet.
  • Showrunner Dolly Alderton and director Euros Lyn are credited in the trailer, which presents a six-episode miniseries written by Alderton and directed by Lyn.
  • Netflix has set a global premiere date of December 3, 2026, with all six episodes arriving on the platform the same day.
  • The trailer includes the novel’s famous opening line spoken on screen by Olivia Colman’s Mrs. Bennet, a choice Alderton says fits the character’s match-making focus.
  • Emma Corrin takes an executive-producer credit and the production teams include Lookout Point and several executive producers, as Netflix leans on star power and careful marketing to position this version alongside past adaptations.
