Adapted for the screen by “Everything I Know About Love” author Dolly Alderton, the six-episode series — set for release this fall — promises to “faithfully bring Jane Austen’s iconic story back to life for audiences that cherish it, whilst inspiring a new generation to fall in love with it for the first time,” according to a press release.

A short teaser released by Netflix on Tuesday seems to support this vision, with cinematic sH๏τs of Corrin’s Elizabeth watching the sunset atop a roof and blushing when she hears the sound of galloping, followed by a rugged Lowden as Darcy arriving on horseback.

“Heartstopper” helmer Euros Lyn directed the series. Alongside Corrin and Lowden, Netflix’s “Pride and Prejudice” stars Olivia Colman as Mrs. Bennet, Rufus Sewell as Mr. Bennet, Freya Mavor as Jane Bennet, Jamie Demetriou as Mr. Collins, Daryl McCormack as Mr. Bingley, Louis Partridge as Mr. Wickham, Rhea Norwood as Lydia Bennet, Siena Kelly as Caroline Bingley, Fiona Shaw as Lady Catherine de Bourg, Hopey Parish as Mary Bennet and Hollie Avery as Kitty Bennet.

Executive producers include Laura Lankester, Will Johnston and Louise Mutter for Lookout Point, as well as Alderton, Lyn and Corrin in their debut production role. Lisa Osborne serves as producer.

“Once in a generation, a group of people get to retell this wonderful story and I feel very lucky that I get to be a part of it,” Alderton said in a statement when the cast was announced. “Jane Austen’s ‘Pride and Prejudice’ is the blueprint for romantic comedy – it has been a joy to delve back into its pages to find both familiar and fresh ways of bringing this beloved book to life. With Euros Lyn directing our stellar cast, I am so excited to reintroduce these hilarious and complicated characters to those who count Pride and Prejudice as their favorite book, and those who are yet to meet their Lizzie and Mr. Darcy.”
