BritBox's upcoming series 'The Other Bennet Sister' has generated buzz for its focus on Mary Bennet, the overlooked sister from Jane Austen's 'Pride and Prejudice.' The show features a love triangle involving Mary, played by Ella Bruccoleri, and Tom Hayward, portrayed by Donal Finn. As of May 3, 2026, no official release date has been announced by BritBox.
The series is based on Janice Hadlow's 2020 novel of the same name, which reimagines Mary's story. The love triangle reportedly includes Mary, Tom Hayward, and another character, though specific details remain unconfirmed. The show is set in the Regency era, consistent with Austen's original setting.
Ella Bruccoleri is known for her role in 'Call the Midwife,' while Donal Finn has appeared in 'The Witcher.' The adaptation aims to explore themes of self-discovery and romance from Mary's perspective. No further casting or plot details have been verified as of this date.
