Released in 2019, Downton Abbey continued the story of the Crawley family, the wealthy owners of a large estate in the English countryside in the early twentieth century. The film ended with a ball the Royal Family could be proud of. When the sequel finally prances into theaters, fans can expect more gorgeous costumes, elaborate set design, and, of course, drama.
Be sure to brush up on your manners before Downton Abbey 2 comes to theaters on March 18, 2022.
