"There's a movie in the works. It's been in the works for some time," he said. "We are working on getting the script right and then we've got to figure out how to get the (cast) together. Because as you know, people go on and do other things. But we're hopeful to make a movie sometime next year."
We can't wait to see what kind of promotional Downton Abbey soda cups and popcorn buckets they unveil at the various Cineplex locations.
