Cast of Other Bennet Sisters Love Triangle: Ella Bruccoleri and Donal Finn

BritBox’s The Other Bennet Sister is already creating a buzz online, but who comprises the steamy love triangle in this Regency drama?

Adapted from the novel by Janice Hadlow, The Other Bennet Sister conveys the narrative of Pride and Prejudice through the eyes of Mary Bennet (Ella Bruccoleri). The storyline then shifts to follow Mary as she journeys to London and the Lake District, as the often-ignored Bennet sister embarks on a romantic escapade in Regency England.

Alongside Bruccoleri, The Other Bennet Sister features Ruth Jones, Richard E. Grant, Indira Varma, Richard Coyle, Róisín Bhalla, Reggie Absolom, and Jasmine Sharp. Additional appearances are made by Laurie Davidson, Dónal Finn, Varada Sethu, Aaron Gill, and Maddie Close.

Poppy Gilbert, Molly Wright, Grace Hogg-Robinson, Tanya Reynolds, Anna Fenton-Garvey, Ryan Sampson, and Lucy Briers complete the cast. The series made its debut in the U.K. in March, available for viewers on BBC iPlayer.

In the U.S., period drama enthusiasts can catch The Other Bennet Sister starting May 6. The series will be accessible on BritBox in both the U.S. and Canada, with a week-long free trial available via Amazon Prime as well. Ahead of the U.S. premiere, BritBox has released the official trailer, allowing romance fans to begin investing in this fictional love story.
