The hit show will be back for two more series, but will Sidney be recast following Theo James' exit?
May 10, 2021 - 14:26 BST Emmy Griffiths Sanditon fans were beyond thrilled to hear the brilliant news that the hit period drama has been renewed for another two series after initially being cancelled back in 2019. However, their elation was slightly short-lived as it was confirmed shortly after that Theo James, who plays the brooding hero Sidney Parker, wouldn't be reprising his role.

The series is being brought back by US network PBS, who confirmed that Sidney Parker will not return for seasons two and three, adding that an"abundance of romance and adventure lies ahead" for the show's heroine. The official synopsis reads:"The drama will continue to follow the high-spirited and independent heroine, Charlotte Heywood as she returns to the picturesque coastal resort of Sanditon.
Theo confirmed that he wouldn't be returning to the show in a statement that read:"Although I relished playing Sidney, for me, I've always maintained that his journey concluded as I wanted it to. The broken fairytale-like ending between Charlotte and Sidney is different, unique and so interesting to me and I wish the cast and crew of Sanditon every success with future series.
