The Daily Telegraph’s Spy is reporting that Donald Sutherland, one of my favourite ‘out-there’ actors, has been case as Mr Bennet in the forthcoming film production of Pride & Prejudice.
Spy also reported last week that Rosamund Pike and ex-boyfriend Simon Woods had been cast as on-screen lovers Jane and Mr Bingley, much to her Oxonian boyfriend artist Henry John’s annoyance.
Sutherland, Pike, and Woods are joined by Brenda Blethyn as Mrs Bennet.
