The Crawley family and their servants also welcome some new visitors to their great house in Yorkshire UK.

Meanwhile, a film production arrives to shoot a movie at Downton Abbey, which creates excitement for the servants and chaos for Lady Mary Talbot (Michelle Dockery). Downton Abbey: A New Era also features the wedding of Tom Branson (Allen Leech) to Lucy Smith (Tuppence Middleton) after they were engaged in the previousDownton Abbey movie. In A New Era, the Crawleys' lives change forever as the family enters a new decade to face the challenges of modern life.

Remarkably, Downton Abbey: A New Era deftly juggles multiple storylines featuring over 30 characters. The lone holdout who doesn't appear is Matthew Goode, who plays Lady Mary's husband, Henry Talbot. Goode only cameoed in Downton Abbey 2019 and he is absent from the sequel entirely. Otherwise, not only does every major character from the 2019 Downton Abbey return but some familiar faces from the TV series also appear in A New Era.
