I agree with angelique, I can’t imagine Armitage as Darcy. I think Elliot Cowan did a good job though. We’ve past the halfway mark of 2011, yet still no news is to be heard upon the release of the film. Even simple information such as description is lacking from the internet. I would really love it if it was released, the tv series was really entertaining to watch. But if Hollywood make it based in New York with an american cast and american backdrop, I shan’t watch it. It won’t be the same as the Hammersmith backdrop.

Nay, Armitage has a pointy nose and an odd smile he should stick with Sir Guy form Robin Hood I think the cast that are in the TV show should do the movie it just wouldn’t be the same its like trying to make Daniel Radcliff play cinderella it wouldn’t be the same

Am I alone in thinking that this is terrible news. The television Lost in Austen was a complete gem of a series. It needs no remake, it is complete and perfect in itself.

So I just finished this on Netflix and I absolutely loved it. Wish they made more TV like this in the States. Elliot Cowan makes a fine Mr. Darcy. And to hear Mr. Darcy say “Amanda” and the meaning of my name made me swoon. I’ve also thought that Richard Armitage would be a fantastic Mr. Darcy since I saw him in “North & South”. He’s absolutely gorgeous. I have bookmarked this awesome site and will return for more updates!!

Omg I really would love to watch that movie. I actually checked out the one for Pride and Prejudice and Zombies and there isn’t much info either. Please, make these films!!!

I read something somewhere about a new modern PP comin up in 2011. Any idea?

Richard Armitage, my god, when I saw the North & South trailer, I instantly thought, “Darcy!!!!!” The woman playing the lead in that series just doesn’t fit into the role. She does not do well at all, acting beside Armitage.

oops, forgot to finish…

…it was nice to see different sides to the characters. caroline “played for the other team;” wickham isn’t the bastard we all thought he was; and apparently, darcy would have fallen for anyone that stood up to him. hahaha. jk.

granted, this wasn’t miss austen’s interpretation. but she can’t exactly chime in.

all in all, well done.

lol, yeah, that’s how 90% of the women population react after seeing him. he’s simply gorgeous, a very talented actor and has a swoon-worthy voice….you should watch North & South, it’s a BBC adaptation of Elizabeth Gaskell’s classic where he plays John Thornton. he’s amazing in it and I dream of him playing Darcy ever since I watched it.
unfortunately I dont have a petition and I know Hollywood will probably go with someone lame, as you said hopefully not Tom Cruise though, lol
