A spinster no more. BritBox is commemorating Jane Austen‘s 250th birthday by putting Pride and Prejudice‘s Mary Bennet in the spotlight in a story where she finally finds love. The Other Bennet Sister is officially in production as of June 17, and it has a star-studded cast of familiar faces including Bridgerton‘s Ella Bruccoleri (see above) as Mary Bennet, Richard E. Grant and Ruth Jones as Mr. and Mrs. Bennet, Game of Thrones‘ Indira Varma, Doctor Who‘s Varada Sethu, and more.

The Other Bennet Sister follows Mary as she steps out of her sisters’ shadows in search of her own identity and purpose – finding herself in the middle of an epic love story along the way. Her journey will see her leave her family home in Meryton for the soirees of Regency London and the peaks and vales of the Lake District, all in search of independence, self-love, and reinvention.
