THE OTHER BENNET SISTER
ELLA BRUCCOLERI TAKES THE LEAD ROLE
BBC One has announced last year that they will produce THE OTHER BENNET SISTER period set series and now we have news that Ella Bruccoleri will take the lead role. Ten half hour episodes will follow one of Jane Austen's most unassuming characters: Mary Bennet, the seemingly unremarkable and overlooked middle sister in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. The series takes as its premise that when it comes to the Bennet 
sisters, while women dream of being Lizzy, in reality most of them are more like Mary. The series 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. It will also stream on BritBox.
