EIt's Lunch Break, and the internet's got a new favorite argument: Netflix just posted the full Bennet sister lineup for their new Pride and Prejudice. Emma Corrin is Elizabeth.
SWait, Emma Corrin? She was fantastic in The Crown. And it's a six-part series, December third.
ESix episodes. Jack Lowden is Mr. Darcy. So we finally get a new Darcy to argue about.
SDo we need another one? The BBC version with Colin Firth is perfect. Why touch it?
EBecause a whole generation grew up on the 2005 movie and thinks Matthew Macfadyen is the definitive Darcy. We need a new one for the kids.
SYou don't fix what isn't broken. Period dramas are sacred.
ESacred? Come on, every adaptation brings something new. This could be the best one yet.
SFine, I'll watch it. But only because Emma Corrin is actually a great choice.
ESee? Already softening.
SDon't get used to it. Netflix better not mess up the proposal scene.
EThey also cast Freya Mavor as Jane, Rhea Norwood as Lydia, Hollie Avery as Kitty, Hopey Parish as Mary.
SThat's a solid Bennet bench.
EA deep bench, if you will.
SSpeaking of Netflix, one account on X is claiming Gladiator II hit the service on October twenty-first and is already number one in the US.
EThat would be huge. The same movie that disappointed in theaters, now topping streaming.
SThe account says 'Streaming grades differently.' Which is true — people watch at home, no pressure to buy tickets.
EBut let's not repeat it as fact. Netflix hasn't confirmed a release date yet. Could be someone jumping the gun.
SRight, it's just a claim right now. But if it is true, that's a smart move. Gladiator II had a good cast and a Ridley Scott pedigree, just didn't connect at the box office.
EStreaming gives it a second life. And being number one in the US on day one would prove that.
SWe'll find out soon enough. Netflix usually confirms when it's official.
EAnd here's a quick one from Plink on X: Netflix put one film in four theaters and published the box office. Streamers want screens now. Independent filmmakers would take one.
SThat's actually a solid point. A four-theater release is just for awards eligibility, but it still snatches those screens from indie films.
EExactly. It's a flex. They don't care about ticket sales, they want the buzz.
SMeanwhile the indie director is begging for a single screen in Manhattan.
EDifferent worlds, man. Different worlds.
