‘Downton Abbey’ movie trailer gets royal treatment
    2019-05-24  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

IT will soon be time to revisit the halls of “Downton Abbey.” The full trailer for the eagerly awaited movie based on the popular television series dropped Tuesday.

While little of the plot has been given away, the story is known to take place in 1927, a couple of years after the end of the TV series, and centers on the royal visit of King George V and Queen Mary to Downton Abbey. The trailer shows the Crawley family and their army of servants preparing for the unexpected visit, which prompts Michelle Dockery’s Lady Mary to ask retired head butler, Carson (Jim Carter), to return to the estate. Exhibitors got a first look at the new trailer at CinemaCon in April.

The movie sees the period drama’s biggest stars, including Hugh Bonneville, Maggie Smith, Laura Carmichael, Penelope Wilton and Elizabeth McGovern, as well as Dockery and Carter, all return. New additions to the cast include Imelda Staunton and Tuppence Middleton. Bonneville unveiled a look at the cast, including Staunton and Middleton, on Monday in a tweet to highlight the upcoming trailer release.

Set at the turn of the 20th century, the beloved British series ran for six seasons until 2015. It followed the lives of the aristocratic Crawley family and the servants who worked for them, beginning in 1912 and concluding at the end of 1925, in an Edwardian English country home. It won numerous awards, including three Golden Globes, 15 Primetime Emmys, and a BAFTA Special Award.

There was much mourning among devotees of the show when it ended and the tag line of the film will be a welcome one for those who miss the show: “We’ve been expecting you.” The “Downton Abbey” movie will debut in Britain on Sept. 13 and then hit U.S. theaters Sept. 20.
