Is there going to be a Downton Abbey movie? It looks pretty likely.

On Sunday, Mirror reported that a film version based on the British drama may end up happening based on what Raquel Cassidy (Phyllis Baxter) had to say about it.

"There have been talks and there is definitely a possibility of a Downton film," the actress said.

Cassidy gave even more of an impression that a movie might take place since others have considered it before.

"There is real hope," she said. "It's been mentioned more than once and there's a lot of commercial and artistic interest. Stranger things have happened, so watch this space."

The actress then dished on Maggie Smith (Violet Crawley) with a number of details on what it's like to work with her.

"Maggie is a force to be reckoned with," Cassidy said. "She is a genuine grand dame of the industry and doesn't suffer fools gladly. She can't stand people who approach her all nervous and intimidated- that immediately gets her back up."

"She wants you to operate on her level or not at all," Cassidy added about Smith. "Then again, if you're like that she probably won't even notice you. At the same time she's very talented and also game for a laugh if she thinks you're worth it. She's intimidating if you're easily frightened. Actors need a thick skin- especially in the presence of somebody as iconic as her."

Downton Abbey Season 5 will air on Sunday, January 4 at 9 p.m. ET on PBS.
