Daisy Edgar-Jones To Topline Adaptation Of Jane Austen’s ‘Sense And Sensibility’ For Focus Features & Working Title
A new 'Sense and Sensibility' movie starring Daisy Edgar-Jones is in the works for Focus Features.
Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner of Working Title Films will produce alongside India Flint of November Pictures and Jo Wallett. Originally published anonymously with the byline reading “By A Lady,” Austen’s Sense and Sensibility follows sisters Elinor (Edgar-Jones) and Marianne Dashwood, opposites in their emotional approach, as they navigate love, loss, and financial uncertainty amid the societal expectations of 18th century England. Best known on the film side for roles in films like Twisters and Where the Crawdads Sing, Edgar-Jones was BAFTA and Golden Globe-nominated for her lead role opposite Paul Mescal in Hulu’s Normal People, also garnering a Golden Globe nomination for her work on Under the Banner of Heaven.
