The BBC has partnered with Working Title for a new television adaptation of Charlotte Brontë's novel, *Jane Eyre*. Emmy-nominated actress Aimee Lou Wood will star as the titular heroine.

Deadline exclusively revealed that the BBC is joining Working Title’s production. This collaboration brings together a major broadcaster and a prominent production company to reimagine the classic literary work for television audiences.

The adaptation was previously announced earlier this year, with Aimee Lou Wood, known for her roles in *The White Lotus* and *Sex Education*, cast as Jane Eyre. She is set to portray the “indomitable heroine” of Brontë’s novel. Details regarding other cast members or a release date have not yet been disclosed.

The project aims to bring a fresh interpretation of *Jane Eyre* to television, building on the established reputation of both Working Title and the BBC in producing high-quality drama.
