1. Creating the package.
Stage one, Downton abbey the movie.
Whilst the family have important guests from the south to visit, Daisy falls for the rich, handsome
son and heir to the visiting family’s estate. Throughout the film their story progresses with
Charlie(the love interest) battling with his social standing and trying to stay away from poor Daisy by
flirting with Lady Edith who is more socially acceptable for him to marry.The rest of the family are
struggling with the family business and are going through a few scenarios of money making
schemes. In the end of the film, the family’s business is settles again and Daisy marries Charlie and
becomes heir to his estates.
Stage two, casting.
Hugh Bonneville- Robert Crawley, Earl of Grantham
Jim Carter- Charles Carson
Brendan Coyle- John Bates
Michelle Dockery- Lady Mary Crawley
Siobhan Finneran- Sarah O'Brien
Joanne Froggatt- Anna Smith
Rob James-Collier- Thomas Barrow
Phyllis Logan- Mrs. Hughes
Elizabeth McGovern- Cora Crawley, Countess of Grantham
Sophie McShera- Daisy Mason
Lesley Nicol- Mrs. Patmore

2. Maggie Smith- Violet Crawley, Dowager Countess of Grantham
Laura Carmichael- Lady Edith Crawley
Stage three, director.
Joe Wright will be the director of this film as he also directed the 2005 Pride and Prejudice film
which was a well presented period drama and I think that style will fit nicely with the Downton
abbey story and setting.
Stage four, funding.
Dear potential investor,
Downton Abbey the series have had a steady 10.1 million viewers over the
course of its long and successful show, so now I am here to do the inevitable but also inventive task
of making “Downton Abbey the Movie.” All the original cast and characters will return for this
blockbuster film, this fact alone will entice mass audiences we haven’t seen since the harry potter
franchise. Along with this there will be an intriguing story of from rags to riches with the beloved
scullery maid daisy falling for the wealthy aristocrat Charlie.
We will have Joe wright as the director, he will be perfect for this job as he was highly successful in
another period drama, Pride and Prejudice which in total grossed $38,405,088 in the US alone.
The film will attract a large audience of not only the committed Downton Abbey fans but also a new
audience of period drama romances. This film will cover a large range of subjects from money to
tricky political and social subjects from the time.
The money will be evenly distributed between props, lighting and the crew. Then there will be the
main actors and director getting a share of the money. The rest of the money will be used to make
the setting as luxurious and authentic as possible.
I hope this letter has given you an idea of the sought after film we are trying to produce, your
investment would mean a lot, yours sincerely
Hollie Farnill.
