Daisy Edgar-Jones showed off her toned abs in a grey strapless crop top as she joined Sense and Sensibility co-star Esmé Creed-Miles at FocusFest 2026 on Sunday.

The British actress, 28, looked incredible in the floral top which she teamed with a vibrant green and black patterned midi skirt. 

The Normal People star elevated her frame in a pair of black heels and styled her dark tresses loose as she beamed for photos with Esmé. 

The Hanna actress, 26, looked effortlessly cool in a plunging black flannel shirt dress which she paired with coordinated stilettos. 

Daisy and Esmé were all smiles as they posed for photos on the red carpet held at The Commons, Universal Studios in California. 

The pair later took to the stage to discuss their new film with the crowd.

Daisy has been busy travelling the world to promote her new movie, which is the latest movie adaptation of Jane Austen's 1811 novel of the same name.

The movie has been met with a series of lacklustre reviews with the Daily Mail's Brian Viner and The Times' Kevin Maher giving just two stars.

Of the movie, Kevin wrote: 'This is Austen by numbers, emotionally flat, dramatically uneven and bizarrely, bafflingly, conventional.'

In stark contrast, however, The Telegraph gave a rare five stars, with Robbie Collins writing: 'The performances have historically appropriate poise, but also feel fresh and unrehearsed. This is Austen with the bonnets blown off – and all the better for it.'

Sense and Sensibility currently has a critics score of 79 per cent on Rotten Tomatoes.

Speaking about her role as Elinor in the film, Daisy said: 'I’ve always been attracted to women that are sensitive and strong-willed, but also deeply kind of internal...

'And I think she is somebody that feels a lot and just knows how to govern it...

'She’s often described as the sense in the film, and Marianne the sensibility, but actually I think what I love most about Elinor is that she’s full to the brim of sensibility, she’s just able to kind of control it.'

She recently opened up about stepping into the role and how she related to the character during an interview with the BBC.

'When it comes to love, I think I am very much more Elinor in every sort of way,' she expressed to the outlet. 'I definitely lead a lot with my head and try and push aside, bury my emotion.'

Daisy added that the character was able to embrace a 'wilder, passionate side', before the actress shared that she felt 'like I learnt to do that, too'.

Are modern adaptations of classics like Sense and Sensibility ruining the originals or making them better?

What's your view?

It comes after Daisy gave a rare insight into her three-year relationship with photographer Ben Seed, aka Pip, in a Vogue interview.

Daisy said their busy schedules make it hard for them to spend time together sometimes, but they try to go no longer than having three weeks apart.

She also touched upon her wish to be a mother and her fears that having endometriosis could make it hard for her to conceive in the future.

Discussing her decision to move to east London, to be near her boyfriend, 37, Daisy said: 'I didn’t know this area well until I met my boyfriend, who lived in London Fields.

'Then I fell in love with east London.'

The pair were first set up on a blind date and Daisy credits him for being a great support in her life.

'With that amount of time, I feel like you get to see each other through so much,' she said. 'He’s so supportive and really champions me in a way that is so magic. I feel very safe and happy.'

Daisy produced Ben's first short film in 2024 and she said she would 'definitely' like to work with him again on bigger projects.
