What is “Downton Abbey: A New Era” about?
When we last left the Downton cast, they’d thwarted an assassination attempt against royal visitors to the Crawley manor in Yorkshire in 2019’s “Downton Abbey: the Motion Picture.”
“Downton Abbey: A New Era,” also written by series creator and head writer Julian Fellows, picks up in 1928, where family secrets coming to light is just scene-setting for what is yet to come.
Soon, a film crew descends on Downton — they want to use the stately manor to shoot their silent film, “The Gambler.” Tensions rise, and fights ensue, as certain family members are unwilling to adapt to Downton’s new guests.
