The short trailer is only one minute long, contains no dialogue, and doesn't even give us a good look at any of the main characters as we watch some footage from inside the residence, the procession of a motorcycle messenger up the long drive, and some sweeping footage of the exterior of the Abbey itself. That's it . . . until that familiar score kicks in!

Next year, you are cordially invited to the motion picture event only in theaters. reads a series of title cards that play over the footage.

As Executive producer Gareth Neame told ET: “We had to do everything that all the fans wanted, but we had to do something that was fresh and original,” offers Neame. “We wanted a kind of storyline and sense of scale and production value that exceeded even the very high production values the TV show was remembered for. On the big screen, it just had to look a little bit more lavish and a little bit bigger and better.”

So, there you have it. prepare for your return to the Abbey next fall. Until then you can enjoy the trailer below.
