Dakota Johnson is set to play Anne Elliot in Netflix’s adaptation of Jane Austen’s Persuasion. Theatre director Carrie Cracknell will make her feature directorial debut with this film that will be written by Alice Victoria Winslow.
Netflix said the latest adaptation takes a modern, witty approach to a beloved story while still remaining true to Jane Austen’s classic novel. Living with her snobby family on the brink of bankruptcy, Anne Elliot is an unconforming woman with modern sensibilities.
