New Sense and Sensibility Reimagining Casts Daisy Edgar-Jones in Autumn Release

Vogue debuts the first look at Daisy Edgar-Jones (Elinor Dashwood) and Esmé Creed-Miles (Marianne) in Georgia Oakley’s Sense and Sensibility for Focus Features. The cast also includes Caitríona Balfe, George MacKay and others, with Diana Reid penning the screenplay. Oakley aims for authentic, timeless period detail as the Dashwoods move from Norland Park to a Devon cottage, crafting a story centered on sisterly love rather than glossy 19th-century fantasy. The film arrives in theatres October 16, 2026.

'Blue Jean': A Powerful Portrayal of the Struggles Faced by Queer Teachers in 1980s Britain.

"Blue Jean," a film by Georgia Oakley, follows a lesbian gym teacher in suburban England in 1988 as she grapples with her queer identity and the "culture of silence" surrounding homosexuality in schools due to Section 28. The film, based on Oakley's own experiences, stars Rosy McEwen and premiered at the Venice Film Festival last fall. Oakley hopes the movie will encourage viewers to reflect on their own ability to make a difference in the world.
