WATCH: ‘Downton Abbey’ prepares for royal visit in new movie trailer
The Crawleys are coming back this September

MANILA, Philippines – The Crawley household is back, and its members are gearing up for a very important home visit from British royalty – King George V and Queen Mary themselves.

The first full-length trailer for the upcoming Downton Abbey movie is here, and fans of the critically-acclaimed historical period drama can’t wait to see their favorite elite family again, this time on movie screens.

 


The Downton Abbey film is set in 1927, following the end of the show’s final season. Aside from the estate prepping for the big royal visit, the trailer also shows tensions rise between the Dowager Countess (Maggie Smith) and the family’s guest Lady Bagshaw (Imelda Staunton), while Branson (Allen Leech) and Bagshaw’s maid Lucy (Tuppence Middleton) form a brewing romance. 

The royal butler played by David Haig is also seen facing off with Mr Carson (Jim Carter), the family’s veteran butler.

Downton Abbey is directed by Michael Engler and written by Julian Fellowes.

It will premiere in the US on September 20.

The award-winning  BBC series ran for 6 seasons, debuting in 2010 and ending in 2015. – Rappler.com
