This week's entertainment lineup includes a fresh adaptation of Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility and a new action comedy starring Catherine Zeta-Jones, according to a guide published by the Guardian.
Daisy Edgar-Jones takes on the role of Elinor Dashwood in director Georgia Oakley's new adaptation of the Austen novel, a part long associated with Emma Thompson's performance in Ang Lee's Oscar-winning 1995 film.
Rather than inviting direct comparison, the Guardian notes that Oakley — known for directing Blue Jean — brings a fresh cast and places renewed emphasis on the relationship between sisters Marianne and Elinor.
Elsewhere in the week's releases, Catherine Zeta-Jones stars in Kill Jackie, described as a madcap action caper in which her character battles assassins.
The guide forms part of a regular roundup of new film, television and cultural releases for audiences planning their week ahead.
