Julianne Moore in Sky, AMC’s ‘Mary & George’: First Images Unveiled (EXCLUSIVE)
variety.comNaman Ramachandran Sky and AMC have unveiled several first look images for the upcoming historical psychodrama series, “Mary & George,” starring Oscar and BAFTA-winning actor Julianne Moore (“Still Alice”), alongside Nicholas Galitzine (“Cinderella”) and Tony Curran (“Mayflies”). “Mary & George” is inspired by the true story of Mary Villiers, who moulded her beautiful and charismatic son, George, to seduce King James VI of Scotland and I of England and become his all-powerful lover.
Through scheming, the pair rose from humble beginnings to become the richest, most titled and influential players the English court had ever seen, and the King’s most trusted advisors.
All this at a time when England’s place on the world stage was under threat from a Spanish invasion and rioters were taking to the streets to denounce the King.
The ensemble cast includes Nicola Walker (“The Split”), Niamh Algar (“The Wonder”), Trine Dyrholm (“The Legacy”), Sean Gilder (“Slow Horses”), Adrian Rawlins (“Chernobyl”), Mark O’Halloran (“The Miracle Club”), Laurie Davidson (“Masters of the Air”), Samuel Blenkin (“Atlanta”), Jacob McCarthy (“SAS: Rogue Heroes”), Tom Victor (“Consent”), Alice Grant (“Anthem”), Amelia Gething (“Emily”), Mirren Mack (“The Nest”), Rina Mahoney (“Happy Valley”) and Simon Russell Beale (“The Death of Stalin”).
