Judi Dench, Donald Sutherland and Brenda Blethyn have signed on to the cast of Working Title’s big screen production of PRIDE AND PREJUDICE.

Several big-name actors have signed on to the upcoming version of Jane Austen novel Pride and Prejudice, which will star Keira Knightley as Elizabeth and Matthew Macfadyen as Mr. Darcy. Donald Sutherland, Judi Dench, Brenda Blethyn, and Penelope Wilton have all joined the cast.

Sutherland and Blethyn star as Elizabeth’s parents, and Dench will play Mr. Darcy’s aunt. Joe Wright directs, from a screenplay by Deborah Moggach and Lee Hall.

They don’t say which role Penelope Wilton will have. Perhaps Aunt Phillips?
