Persuasion is expected to premiere on Netflix on July 15, 2022, at 12.00 AM PT. The trailer for the film, which released on June 14, 2022, offers a peek into the film's vintage setting fans of period romantic dramas would love.

The two-and-a-half-minute trailer showcases several interesting events set to unfold in the film, without giving away too many details that could spoil the viewing experience. Along with the trailer, Netflix shared a brief description of the film on their official YouTube channel, which reads:

''Living with her snobby family on the brink of bankruptcy, Anne Elliot is an unconforming woman with modern sensibilities. When Frederick Wentworth—the dashing one she once sent away—crashes back into her life, Anne must choose between putting the past behind her or listening to her heart when it comes to second chances. Adapted from the Jane Austen novel.''

Viewers can expect a character-driven romantic drama, similar to several other Jane Austen films. The original novel revolves around a young woman named Anne Elliot, who, after seven years, meets her former fiance Frederick Wentworth. The book received widespread critical acclaim and is considered by many Austen fans to be one of the author's finest works.
