The cast of Georgia Oakley's Sense and Sensibility took over London's Leicester Square on Tuesday night for the film's world premiere.

Georgia Oakley's Austen

Oakley directs the latest Jane Austen adaptation from Focus Features, adding a new take to a story that has been filmed many times before.

Two dates, two countries

It opens Sept. 25 in the U.K. and Oct. 16 in the U.S., so American fans wait three extra weeks.

The full cast turned out

Daisy Edgar-Jones, George MacKay, Herbert Nordrum, Frank Dillane, Bodhi Rae Breathnach and Fiona Shaw all worked the media line in their finest.

A famous surname

Esme Creed-Miles joined them on the carpet. She is the daughter of Samantha Morton, currently seen in The Odyssey.

MacKay skipped the homework

Despite starring in the new version, George MacKay still has not watched Ang Lee's Oscar-winning 1995 adaptation.

What to remember

Georgia Oakley's Sense and Sensibility premiered in London on Sept. 15, 2026, and hits UK screens Sept. 25 and US screens Oct. 16.
