《唐顿庄园》可能将拍电影版

The long-rumored movie version of hit show Downton Abbey looks ever more likely as one of the actors has appeared to confirm the involvement of Maggie Smith in such a project. 

 

之前一直有传言称大热英剧《唐顿庄园》要拍电影版，最近，该剧的一名演员隐约确认片中老戏骨玛吉•史密斯会参与其中。看来拍电影这事儿有点谱了。

 

Smith, 81, who won an Emmy for her performance as Violet, Dowager Countess of Grantham in the show, had previously¹ been skeptical² about the endeavor, saying a year ago she feared her character's advancing years ruled her out of such an appearance. 

 

Asked if she would appear in any film, Smith told Graham Norton: "I can't - what age would she be? By the time we finished, she must have been about 110. It couldn't go on and on, it just didn't make sense." 

 

But at a Bafta event in Los Angeles over the weekend, Michael Fox, who plays friendly valet Andy Parker on the show, said that Smith signing on meant the film would not only proceed - but be the better for it. 

 

"The film without her would still be good with all the other actors," he was quoted by MailOnline, "but it puts a stamp of quality with her in it."
