Los Angeles, British actress Carey Mulligan recalls stepping into the world of acting with “Pride and Prejudice” 20 years ago and says she was “fortunate” to be a part of the film.
Directed by Joe Wright, the film was released in 2005 and stars the actor alongside Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen in the role of Kitty Bennet.
Mulligan later worked on projects such as “An Education” and “The Great Gatsby”.
“I was very lucky to get that job,” the actress said. According to the entertainment magazine People, he said, “I think the thing that always comes back to me is, we talk a lot about luck in this job, and it’s true that if you – there’s a little twist of luck, it means you’re in the right room at the right time. And being a part of that gave me the career.”
The 40-year-old actor said, “So I feel incredibly lucky that I started from a place where I could stay in the shadows, but see talent all around me… There was a lot of heart in it.”
Mulligan also praised the filmmaker. “I remember Joe taking us into the house with the sisters, and we spent a day playing hide-and-seek and sardines in the house to make it feel like it was our house… and a lot was done to make it feel like we had ownership over the story or these characters.”
This romantic film is an adaptation of renowned author Jane Austen’s classic 1813 novel of the same name.
Set in early 19th century England, the film stars Knightley as the spirited Elizabeth Bennet as she tackles issues of class, family and romance.
When the wealthy and isolated Mr. Darcy, portrayed by Macfadyen, enters her life, early misunderstandings and prejudices threaten to keep them apart. However, as the truth comes out, both Elizabeth and Darcy confront their own flaws and assumptions, leading to mutual respect and ultimately love.
It also stars Rosamund Pike, Simon Woods, Tom Hollander, Tallulah Riley and Kelly Reilly.
