Deadline<\/a> is reporting that heading up the cast for this latest attempt will be British actors Lily James and Sam Riley and Australia\u2019s Bella Heathcote with Igby Goes Down<\/strong>‘s Burr Steers directing. James will be playing Elizabeth Bennett, Riley is set as Mr. Darcy and Heathcote will be Elizabeth\u2019s sister.<\/p>\n
