re: Where Downton Abbey Cast Are Now & New Movie
Downton Abbey Movie Sequel Gets Release Date as Dominic West Joins Cast
The Crawleys will be back for another film this Christmas!
RadioTimes, 19 APR 2021.
ITV’s period drama hit Downton Abbey is getting a sequel to its 2019 film, set for release this Christmas, Universal Pictures has announced on Twitter.
The studio revealed that the entire show’s cast are returning for Downton Abbey 2, with Hugh Dancy (Hannibal), Laura Haddock (Guardians of the Galaxy), Nathalie Baye (The Assistant) and Dominic West (The Affair) also set to star in the upcoming picture.
“We’re thrilled to announce that Julian Fellowes and the entire Downton cast are back for #DowntonAbbey2,” Universal Pictures wrote on Twitter, before adding that the film will arrive in cinemas this Christmas.
The official announcement was hot on the heels of Hugh Bonneville’s tweet teasing the sequel, featuring the Earl of Grantham himself posing in front of a Downton Abbey poster.
“Good to be back,” he wrote on Twitter. “#DowntonAbbey2.”
The cast returned for a film in 2019, which saw the King and Queen visit the Crawley family’s country house while the loyal Downton staff dealt with an incoming royal entourage and widower John Bates tried to prevent an assassin from killing the monarch.
Downton Abbey 2 arrives in cinemas this Christmas.
