The BBC is revisting Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice in a new TV spin-off, The Other Bennet Sister, which revolves around Mary Bennet.

Quintrell told BBC that she can’t wait to “bring this beautiful story to screen,” especially for all “the Marys.”specials, will produce The Other Bennet Sister for BBC iPlayer and BBC One. Executive producers include Hadlow, Kate Crowther, Becca Kinder, Jane Tranter, and Rebecca Ferguson.Dan Girolamo is a multifaceted content creator with nearly a decade of experience in pop culture, sports, and entertainment.
