Downton Abbey: A New Era relocates the Crawleys to the South of France, where the Dowager Countess (Smith) has come into the possession of a villa — apparently thanks to a mysterious man from her past. As Carson (Carter) remarks in the teaser below, “They better be warned — the British are coming.”
Series creator Julian Fellowes wrote the movie, which is directed by Simon Curtis (My Week With Marilyn).
