Pride and Prejudice Netflix Release Date: Dec. 3, 2026, Plus a 35-Day Reading Plan

Netflix’s six-part Pride and Prejudice series, written by Dolly Alderton and starring Emma Corrin and Jack Lowden, premieres Thursday, Dec. 3, 2026, Netflix Tudum said on Oct. 28, 2026, the day it released the trailer article. Netflix’s title page labels it a “Limited Series.” Below are the cast, what Netflix has not yet announced, and a free 35-day plan to read the novel before the premiere.

When does Pride and Prejudice come out on Netflix?

Netflix Tudum’s article “Pride and Prejudice: Teaser, Cast, Photos, Release Date” says the series “debuts on Dec. 3.” Dec. 3, 2026 is a Thursday. Alderton announced the date at the Jane Austen Festival in Bath, England, according to a second Tudum article from Oct. 28, 2026.

How we keep this accurate

The series facts come from three Netflix Tudum articles dated Oct. 28, 2026 and Netflix’s title page. The chapter count comes from Project Gutenberg. Netflix can change a date, so check the title page near Dec. 3. When Netflix announces a time or an episode plan, this story will change.
