The new series takes place decades after the original series in 1871 and will feature new characters and new dramas. It will tell the love story of Frederick Trenchard, played by Ben Wainwright.
On the announcement of the new series, Fellowes said: "I’m so proud of everything this dedicated team accomplished with the original Belgravia series. I cannot wait for the world to return to Belgravia for this new iteration, expertly crafted by Helen Edmundson.
"Old and new fans alike will be swept off their feet with an emotionally engaging story, memorable characters, and brilliant production and costume design."
As the series has been developed by Carnival Films for MGM+, fans are naturally going to be wondering whether the series will be airing in the UK. Read on to find out.
