Washington [US], April 3 (ANI): Focus Features presented an emotional first look at the trailer for 'Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale' at CinemaCon, marking the final installment in the trilogy of big-screen continuations of the beloved British TV drama.

Written by series creator Julian Fellowes and directed by Simon Curtis, the trailer offers a glimpse into the lives of the Grantham family and their loyal servants as they bid farewell to an era.

As per Deadline, the title card reads, 'It's time to say goodbye,' as Hugh Bonneville's Earl of Grantham is seen patting the facade of the manor house.

The trailer also reveals images of the family at the races, Dominic West's Guy Dexter in London's West End, and Michelle Dockery's Lady Mary ascending steps in a stunning red gown.

A poignant tribute to the late Maggie Smith's Dowager Countess is also featured in the trailer, Deadline reported.

The film, set to release domestically on September 12, promises to pay homage to the 'end of an era' with the loss of the Dowager Countess, a storyline that has taken on greater significance following Smith's passing last September.

The main cast, including Bonneville, Dockery, Laura Carmichael, and Jim Carter, returns for the final installment.

Newcomers Joely Richardson, Alessandro Nivola, Simon Russell Beale, and Arty Froushan are also featured. (ANI)
