Watch Theo James and Rose Williams in First Trailer for PBS’ Jane Austen Adaptation Sanditon

Bringing to life Jane Austen’s final, unfinished novel, PBS has released the trailer for the forthcoming period-drama miniseries Sanditon.

The unfinished novel and subsequent miniseries follow the young and spirited Charlotte Heywood and her fiery romance with Sidney Parker after Charlotte gets sent to a seaside town where secrets are unveiled and Charlotte, ultimately, discovers herself and love.

“All in all, I think you’ll come to regret ever stepping foot in Sanditon,” a character says to Charlotte in the trailer. “I know I do.”

Set to premiere in 2020, the series stars Theo James (War on Everyone), Rose Williams (Medici), Anne Reid (The Aeronauts), Crystal Clarke (Star Wars: The Last Jedi) and Kris Marshall (Love Actually).

Part of PBS’ Masterpiece series, the eight-hour miniseries is being adapted by Andrew Davies, who is no stranger to period pieces: Prior to Sanditon, Davies is best- known for his TV adaptations of Pride & Prejudice and Les Miserables. Davies’ modern take on the story comes after the book remained unfinished when Austen died in 1817.
