Great News for the Crawley family’s fans! Downton Abbey is coming back with its sequel “Downton Abbey: A New Era” on the big screen. Firstly, we know about the Crawley family from the multi-award-winning legendary TV drama series Downton Abbey which spans six seasons and came to an end in December 2015.
The series was centered on the personal dramas of the Crawley family and the notable historical events played out on the world stage. The Crawleys were affected by various historical moments like the Spanish Influenza, Titanic sinking, several wars, and more. Then, in 2019, Downton Abbey returns but on a big screen.
It would take place in post-Edwardian England and show the British aristocracy’s early 1900s lives and events. Also, the 2019 film depicts the Crawley family and Downton staff receiving a royal visit from the King and Queen of Great Britain. Now, the story of the Crawley family has not finished here; it will be continued in its sequel 2022 movie, namely, “A New Era.”
Julian Fellowes, the historical drama series creator, has written both movies with Emmy and BAFTA-winning Gareth Neame and Emmy Award-winning Liz Trubridge producing. BAFTA and Emmy-nominated Simon Curtis has directed the “A New Era,” while Michael Engler directed the 2019 film.
This historical British Drama, “Downton Abbey: A New Era” will show the Crawley family and their household staff on a journey to the South of France for a new adventure as they reveal the mystery of the Dowager Countess (Smith) who has come into the possession of a villa. It is going to be great fun for the Crawley family.
A trailer also shows the wedding scenes of widower Tom Branson (Allen Leech) and maid Lucy Smith (Tuppence Middleton). It would look like America will be experiencing a British attack a few decades early. It may also be possible the Crawley family and their household staff may move to Canada. Downton Abbey: A New Era is the perfect gift for their fans as it would provide a unique, behind-the-scenes, and an-in depth experience of the magic and grace of Downton Abbey.
