... in an 8 part Starz miniseries called 'The Serpent Queen'.Charles Dance, Ludivine Sagnier, and Colm Meaney are among the supporting cast. The series will be adapted from Leonie Frieda's book Catherine de' Medici: Renaissance Queen of France - I've read it and it's fascinating! Morton is one of my all time favorite actresses, too, so of course I am super excited for this. Will you be watching?

I was just thinking about how much I want a Samantha Morton renaissance, especially after she fucking crushed it on The Walking Dead a few years back. This is a perfect vehicle (and Dance and Meaney are always excellent).

Of course I'll be watching. A Top 3 actress of the 00s decade + more Mary/Elizabeth/Vatican/de Medici stuff + StarZ channel...... I can't see how this WON'T kick.
Reign is a pretty good show too. Megan Follows played Catherine de Medici on it. Not bad.

Can we all take a moment to marvel at how incredible Virna Lisi was in this role in 1994's La reine Margot?   cherry68 |

oh Tyler, you're giving me too much to read! Thanks for the recommendation though, it looks very interesting. De Medici seems like just sort of protagonist I'm drawn to.  |

This looks unbelievably awful. What is up with period pieces (this, Persuasion, and something else I feel I'm forgetting...) ripping off the Fleabag style. And they're seriously girl bossing a torturing dictator??? And don't even get me started on that jarring and godawful editing. Hard pass in all regards.

Fleabag and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.

I thought after all the muslim hired for this film, that should be worse. But not I still have faith.-
I love all the executions.-
Will be graphical.-
Mrs. Morton and Mrs. Sagnier are great in the trailer, and for my is all that's matter.-
Before the trailer I had no faith on it. Should be another Black Anne Boleyn or a German Elizabeth with Black Spanish Ambassadors. But not the trailer is bloody thirsty. Fortunately I never seen Fleabag, to have another opinion.-
Even when people talking to the audience, was already old fashioned when Mel Brooks used it.-

Better than average, just not good enough for my taste.
Both Samantha Morton and Ludivine Sagnier shine and are the highlights as Catherine and Diane respectly.
