The film, set in 1927, depicts a royal visit to the Crawley family’s stately home in Yorkshire. A sequel, ‘Downton Abbey: A New Era,’ was released in 2022.
The film is currently under production in the UK. Focus Features and Carnival Films have collaborated for ‘Downton Abbey 3’, which will be written by Julian Fellowes, who created the acclaimed TV show that ran from 2010-15.
