A new film adaptation of Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility, directed by Georgia Oakley from a screenplay by Diana Reid and starring Daisy Edgar-Jones as Elinor and Esmé Creed-Miles as Marianne, opened in theaters on October 20, 2026. Coverage compares it to Ang Lee and Emma Thompson's 1995 version, noting its faster pace and its foregrounding of the Dashwood family's shabby cottage and lost status, which the earlier film keeps off screen. The discussion now centers on that earthier emphasis and on the sisters' lack of agency, with the 1995 film as the standing point of contrast. Creed-Miles, who plays the younger sister, is Samantha Morton's daughter.
