OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Downton Abbey 3’ will be released on September 12th, 2025.
Universal Pictures UK took to Instagram to confirm the third instalment of the film franchise will hit the big screen in autumn next year.
The caption read: “A new motion picture event. The third film in the beloved #DowntonAbbey franchise will be released only in cinemas September 12, 2025.”
Hugh Bonneville, Dominic West, Elizabeth McGovern, Michelle Dockery, Laura Carmichael, Jim Carter, Phyllis Logan, Robert James-Collier are to return for the hotly-anticipated movie.

“We’re so happy to announce that we’re in production for the third ‘Downton Abbey’ movie. We can’t wait to see you.”
