The wonderful Romola Garai plays Emma:
Jonny Lee Miller plays Mr. Knightley:
Michael Gambon plays Mr. Woodhouse: (I adore this man)
Blake Ritson plays Mr Elton. Oh dear, I love this guy too.
And *drum role please* Rupert Evans is to play Mr Frank Churchill. *sigh* I've been dying for this guy to be in another period role since playing Fredrick in North and South. Now I'll most likely fall for him instead of Mr. Knightley. Why do they always pick my favorite actors for Frank Churchill? Oh well...perhaps he'll astound us all and make us reel with hatred. We shall see.
oh I know I'm so looking forward to seeing this! I too adore Michael Gambon, and I'm glad you mentioned that Rupert Evans was from North and South, I recognized him but couldn't place him. :)
ReplyDeleteThat pink dress of Emma's is amazing! It nearly took my breath away. Maybe I should make another regency too-it's been over a year...:)
