This trailer seems promising, because it seems to be following the books pretty closely. \n\nOne secret wish:  I hope they don't throw in some shoehorned in romance between Sarah and one of the male leads (like John or Marcus Isaacson.) In addition to being kinda pointless, a key part of Sarah's characterization in the books was that she was a woman in the 1890's (still technically the Victorian Era) who wasn't interested in men or romance; but preferred to focus on her career. At one point in the sequel, she comments how society has made her feel stigmatized as unnatural and an odd spinster lady and less than a woman due to the fact that she is pursuing her career rather than marriage and motherhood. If they show her falling in love with and/ or embarking on a sexual relationship with one of her male costars, I think that this aspect of her characterization will be very much damaged. \n\nI'm not denigrating men or romance as anti feminist; but Sarah's decision to eschew marriage for her career and how society's negative reaction to this makes her feel like an outsider is a key aspect of her characterization. As Kreitzler notes (about Sarah), She told me from the beginning that she wouldn't be interested in romance with me or anyone else. She is an unusual sort of woman; she doesn't need to be with a man. \n\nAnyway, I hope they remain as true as possible to her characterization. It looks as though they are portraying her well here-- intelligent, competent, and assertive, like in the books.  However, having a female protagonist who does not get together with at least one of the male leads is virtually unprecedented in Hollywood, which is what is making me nervous.
