In their Telegraph article titled, "Jane Austen to be Latest Teenage Sensation," Hastings, Jones and Plentl argue that a Jane Austen revival is about to splurge upon the media scene as six forthcoming films and television series, along with plans for new editions of her works, will be released beginning next month.

The most interesting thing about this 19th century literary frenzy? It's being targeted to the teenage market. Starring young actors, including the young actress from The Devil Wears Prada and The Princess Diaries, Anne Hathaway, who will portray the fiesty Jane Austen herself in the upcoming film, Becoming Jane.
