Hugh Bonneville, Romola Garai, Hugh Dancy and Jodhi May will star in Andrew Davies' three-part adaptation of George Eliot's Daniel Deronda, currently shooting for 11 weeks on location in Somerset, London, Surrey, Edinburgh and Malta. The adaptation reunites Andrew Davies with producer Louis Marks, the team behind the BBC's award-winning and widely acclaimed version of George Eliot's Middlemarch.
