The 2026 Georgia Oakley-directed adaptation of Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility, starring Daisy Edgar-Jones and Esmé Creed-Miles, opened in U.S. theaters on October 16 with a Tomatometer at 76% from 98 reviews. Critics highlight strong performances centering the Dashwood sisters’ bond and a grounded, naturalistic tone that differentiates it from Ang Lee’s 1995 version, though some note a muted visual palette and lower energy. Audience scores have reached 90%, reflecting warmer reception. With the film now playing widely, additional reviews and any late shifts in critic consensus will determine whether the certified rating holds or adjusts before locking.
