Inspired by the best-selling book, ‘My Lady Jane’ is a radical retelling of English royal history, in which King Henry VIII’s son Edward does not die of tuberculosis, Lady Jane Grey is not beheaded, and neither is her scoundrel of a husband Guildford. At the centre of this swashbuckling new series is the brilliant and headstrong Jane, who is shocked to be crowned queen and finds herself the target of nefarious villains coming for the crown (and her head)… ‘My Lady Jane’ is an epic tale of true love and high adventure.
The cast is led by newcomer Emily Bader in the titular role of Jane Grey. Starring opposite her is Edward Bluemel (‘Killing Eve’) as Guildford Dudley. Jordan Peters (‘Pirates’) plays King Edward. Dominic Cooper (‘Preacher’) plays Lord Seymour, Anna Chancellor (‘Pennyworth’) plays Jane’s mother, Lady Frances Grey, and Rob Brydon (‘The Trip’) plays Lord Dudley, Guildford’s father. Jim Broadbent (‘The Duke’) plays the Duke of Leicester, Jane’s uncle.
Henry Ashton (‘Outlander’) plays Guildford’s brother, Stan, and Isabella Brownson (‘Napoleon’) and Robyn Betteridge (‘Wheel of Time’) play Jane’s sisters. Kate O’Flynn (‘Landscapers’) and Abbie Hern (‘Enola Holmes 2’) portray theKing’s sisters, Princess Mary and Princess Bess, respectively. Additional cast includes Máiréad Tyers (‘Extraordinary’), Joe Klocek (‘The Dry’), and Michael Workeye (‘This is Going to Hurt’).
