The highly anticipated third season of the hit television series "Downton Abbey" has been grabbing headlines and generating plenty of buzz. Fans of the show can rejoice as new information about the upcoming season has finally been released. Here's everything we know so far.
First and foremost, it has been confirmed that Season 3 will pick up the story in the early 1920s, around 18 months after the end of Season 2. This time jump will allow for new storylines and character development.
One of the most exciting updates is the addition of new cast members. Acclaimed British actress Shirley MacLaine is set to join the ensemble as Martha Levinson, the American mother of Lady Grantham (played by Elizabeth McGovern). MacLaine's character is said to clash with the Dowager Countess (Maggie Smith), leading to some entertaining exchanges.
In addition to MacLaine, several other new actors will be joining the cast. Among them are Nigel Harman, who will portray a visiting valet named Green, and Harriet Walter, who will play Lady Shackleton, an old friend of the Dowager Countess. These new characters are expected to shake things up and create interesting dynamics within the established cast.
