It is a truth universally acknowledged that a viewer with a taste for Jane Austen‘s Pride and Prejudice is in want of a good onscreen Mr. Darcy. Thankfully, there have been a multitude of epic onscreen versions of the character plucked from the pages of Austen’s Regency-era romance — and the adaptations are ongoing.
Netflix recently revealed plans for a forthcoming Pride and Prejudice television series, leaving many to ponder which actor may land the coveted role. Additionally, with the forthcoming film Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, we can’t help but be reminded of our love for Colin Firth‘s other famous Darcy role as Mark in that franchise.
