"Nina Raine is one of the most gifted writers working today, and her wit and emotional intelligence make her the perfect match for Jane Austen. She's a devoted fan of the book, but she's never seen any previous adaptations - so pleasingly the novel only exists in her imagination."

人們談及《傲慢與偏見》時(shí)，總會(huì)抱怨，說它不夠“虐”。

簡(jiǎn)奧斯汀的這部小說描寫了英國攝政時(shí)期（1811-1820年）的社會(huì)風(fēng)貌，家喻戶曉，文筆歡快，據(jù)RadioTimes網(wǎng)站報(bào)道，波爾達(dá)克系列的制片公司Mammoth Screen如今正為這部小說發(fā)展新的劇情，以適應(yīng)英國獨(dú)立電視公司（ITV）的要求。他們表示，一定會(huì)寫出《傲慢與偏見》中“虐”的一面。

另外，Mammoth公司簽下了編劇尼娜雷恩來改寫這部小說，Nina也是今年國家大劇院上演的高分話劇Consent的編劇。

Mammoth 的總經(jīng)理達(dá)米恩·蒂莫說“這是個(gè)特殊的時(shí)代，觀眾們喜歡復(fù)雜的連載劇情，因此，重新改編一下這部劇是有必要的。這部完美的小說在每個(gè)時(shí)代都應(yīng)該有不同的版本?！?/p>

他還說：“尼娜·瑞恩是當(dāng)代最有天賦的編劇之一，她的智慧和情商都足以媲美簡(jiǎn)·奧斯汀。她雖然是《傲慢與偏見》的忠實(shí)粉絲，但卻從來沒看過之前任何改編的版本，因此這部小說只存在于她的想象中，這是令人高興的?！?/p>

新版《傲慢與偏見》的播出時(shí)間還有待進(jìn)一步確定。
