Jane Austen's stories have an enduring pull on Hollywood, and it's easy to see why. Two centuries on, her richly drawn characters and timeless themes of love, heartbreak, and misunderstanding continue to captivate audiences. While Pride and Prejudice often steals the spotlight, another Austen favorite is about to get its moment—and this time, it's coming straight to your living room.
Focus Features and Working Title have officially set the home release date for their new adaptation of Sense and Sensibility, starring Daisy Edgar-Jones and Esmé Creed-Miles as the Dashwood sisters. The film will be available to watch at home starting November 3, 2026, giving fans a chance to revisit the beloved story of Elinor and Marianne as they navigate love, loss, and the rigid social expectations of Regency-era England.
In an exclusive sneak peek, we get a glimpse of the film's gorgeous period setting—think elegant ballrooms, sweeping costumes, and the quiet tension of a society where every glance and gesture carries weight. The clip focuses on Elinor (Edgar-Jones) as she tries to make sense of the shifting social dynamics around her, a task made all the more complicated by her own guarded heart.
The story follows Mrs. Dashwood and her daughters after the death of their husband and father, forcing them to leave their grand estate for the modest Barton Cottage. As Elinor and Marianne adjust to their new circumstances, they each find themselves drawn to very different suitors—Elinor to the reserved Edward Ferrars (George MacKay), and Marianne to the dashing but unpredictable John Willoughby (Frank Dillane). Along the way, they learn that their bond as sisters is the one constant they can rely on, no matter how different their approaches to love and life may be.
The cast is a who's who of rising talent, with Herbert Nordrum (The Worst Person in the World) as the steadfast Colonel Brandon, Fiona Shaw (Killing Eve) as the meddling Mrs. Jennings, and Bodhi Rae Breathnach as young Margaret Dashwood. The supporting ensemble includes Stacy Martin, Tom Brooke, Turlough Convery, Chloe Pirrie, Ceara Coveney, Eliot Sumner, Bethany Slater, and Forrest Bothwell.
For those who can't wait to see Edgar-Jones and Creed-Miles bring Austen's heroines to life, the film's theatrical run is already underway, but the home release means you can enjoy it from the comfort of your couch.
