'Mayor of Kingstown' Star's 'Downton Abbey' Parody Wines and Dines a New Streamer

If there is one thing the current film and TV landscape is teaching us, it's that people love British period dramas. On Netflix, the most popular show right now and one of the streamer's flagship shows is the Shonda Rhimes-created Bridgerton, with the gripping romance of Benedict Bridgerton (Luke Thompson) and Sophie Baek (Yerin Ha) enticing many millions of viewers. At the box office, the release of director Emerald Fennell's third feature film, an adaptation of Wuthering Heights, proved immensely popular, with Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi's steamy story earning almost $200 million already.
