Jane Austen has long passed, but studios refuse to put Pride and Prejudice to rest. It would be a challenge to adapt a story that has been told on film more than a dozen times, but The Other Bennet Sister by BritBox is a spinoff unlike any other. There are no gimmicky zombies involved, and it’s no simple Bridgerton-ified remake of the original plot. Instead, the BritBox series follows Mary Bennet—one of the least popular Bennet sisters.
Screenwritten by Sarah Quintrell, The Other Bennet Sister was adapted from the fictional spinoff novel by Janice Hadlow.
