Starz has released a teaser trailer for Mary and George, a seven-part limited series created by playwright D.C. Moore and inspired by Benjamin Woolley's book, The King's Assassin: The Secret Plot to Murder James I, according to IndieWire.
The cast includes Julianne Moore, Nicholas Galitzine, Tony Curran, Nicola Walker, Niamh Algar, Trine Dyrholm, Sean Gilder, Adrian Rawlins, Mark O'Halloran, Laurie Davidson, Samuel Blenkin, Jacob McCarthy, Tom Victor, Simon Russell Beale, Amelia Gething, Mirren Mack, Rina Mahoney, and Alice Grant.
Oliver Hermanus is lead director of the show, which is produced by Hera Pictures in association with Sky Studios, and will premiere in 2024 as a Starz original series in the U.S. and Canada.
"Mary and George is the perfect complement to Starz's provocative slate and we're thrilled to partner with Sky Studios to bring this extraordinary series to U.S. audiences," said Alison Hoffman, president of domestic networks for Starz. "We can't wait for the world to discover the untold story of Mary Villiers, who mastered the art of sexual and political conquests in a male-dominated society. And to have Julianne leading this remarkable cast is a dream."
