Prime Video released the official trailer for “My Lady Jane,” an upcoming swashbuckling romantasy series set in an alternate fantasy version of Tudor England. The highly anticipated show will premiere with all eight episodes available on Thursday, June 27, 2024.

Based on the best-selling novel, “My Lady Jane” offers a radical reimagining of English royal history. This fantastical tale diverges from the tragic fates of historical figures: King Henry VIII’s son Edward survives his illness, Lady Jane Grey escapes her grim end, and her roguish husband Guildford Dudley avoids execution. The series centers on the sharp-witted and resilient Jane, who is astonished to find herself crowned queen and targeted by various villainous plots aiming for her crown and her life. It promises to be an epic saga filled with true love and thrilling adventures.

Emily Bader, a fresh face, stars in the titular role of Jane Grey. Edward Bluemel, known for “Killing Eve,” plays Guildford Dudley, while Jordan Peters from “Pirates” takes on the role of King Edward. The cast also includes Dominic Cooper (“Preacher”) as Lord Seymour, Anna Chancellor (“Pennyworth”) as Lady Frances Grey, and Rob Brydon (“The Trip”) as Lord Dudley. The legendary Jim Broadbent (“The Duke”) portrays the Duke of Leicester, Jane’s uncle.

Additional cast members include Henry Ashton (“Outlander”) as Stan Dudley, Isabella Brownson (“Napoleon”) and Robyn Betteridge (“Wheel of Time”) as Jane’s sisters, and Kate O’Flynn (“Landscapers”) and Abbie Hern (“Enola Holmes 2”) as Princess Mary and Princess Bess, the King’s sisters. The series also features Máiréad Tyers, Joe Klocek, and Michael Workeye.

The creative force behind “My Lady Jane” includes co-showrunners and executive producers Gemma Burgess, known for the “Brooklyn Girls” trilogy, and Meredith Glynn from “The Boys.” Executive producers Laurie MacDonald (“Men In Black,” “Gladiator”) and Sarah Bradshaw (“The Mummy,” HBO’s upcoming “The Hedge Knight”) bring their expertise to the series. Jamie Babbit (“Only Murders in the Building,” “But I’m A Cheerleader”) directs five of the eight episodes, serving as producing director and executive producer.

Fans of alternate history and romantic fantasy can look forward to “My Lady Jane” offering a blend of historical intrigue, romance, and swashbuckling action, coming soon to Prime Video.
