A Downton Abbey star, who joined the cast in season three, has revealed that he hasn’t been asked to return for the film version of the immensely popular show. Ed Speleers, who played the confident footman Jimmy Kent on Downton, has revealed that he hasn’t been asked to star in the film yet.
“I haven’t had the call about that…. but Downton was a big part of my life. I met the mother of my children there, and that place was sort of like a drama school for me in some respects. My career started there and it was a real melting pot with great actors like Hugh Bonneville and Maggie Smith, it was a great place for me to learn. That was a huge part of my life.”
He added that he wouldn’t mind if he wasn’t involved in the film, adding: “[Am I annoyed?] No, not really… no because my journey was complete.”
fellowes never ceases to disappoint us. >_<
