Production[]

After the release of the first film in 2019, creator Julian Fellowes and the cast stated that they already had ideas about doing a sequel.[10] In January 2020, it was reported that Fellowes would begin working on it after he finished scripting drama series The Gilded Age.[11] In September 2020, Jim Carter, who plays Carson, said that the script for the sequel had been written,[12] and in February 2021, Hugh Bonneville, who plays Robert, stated in an interview with BBC Radio 2 that once the cast and crew had been vaccinated for COVID-19, the film would be made.[13]

Principal photography was originally scheduled to take place from 12 June to 12 August 2021, in Hampshire, England,[14] but Deadline Hollywood confirmed production started in mid-April 2021.[4] On 16 July 2021, Elizabeth McGovern announced on Instagram that she had completed filming.[15] On 25 August 2021, the film's title Downton Abbey: A New Era was announced.[16][17]

Casting[]

The principal cast of the first film are expected to return. Joining the cast are Hugh Dancy, Laura Haddock, Nathalie Baye and Dominic West.[4]

Release[]

Downton Abbey: A New Era was initially set to be released in cinemas on 22 December 2021,[18][19] before subsequently having its release date moved to 18 March 2022.[3] It will be streamed on Peacock 45 days after its theatrical release.[20]
