Keep reading to find out more… In a new interview, he confirmed that it’s “probably” the final film in the franchise. “We finished a third — and I think probably final — Downton Abbey film this summer, which will come out next September and that is a wonderful sort of closing off of all the stories, so it’s a proper film for the fans,” Hugh told The Chris Evans Breakfast Show in a new interview.
News that this film will be the final one isn’t exactly surprising information, as it confirms what another cast member previously shared.
He did give a few details, including how they’ll be saying goodbye to the late Dame Maggie Smith. Hugh continued, “It’s very much set in the house and saying goodbye to all these characters and we obviously say goodbye to Dame Maggie, which was very poignant on screen and now in real life.
She’ll be sorely missed. But the final film will obviously be a great lasting tribute to her.” Find out who will and won’t be returning for the third and final Downton Abbey film.
