Bridgerton season 3 still has yet to premiere on Netflix, but we have something similar for you to watch in the meantime. It's the new historical drama miniseries, Mary & George. The first episode has already aired and is currently streaming on the Starz app. There are still many more episodes left to be aired/released, so you don’t want to miss them. Luckily, you have us at Show Snob to provide you with the release schedule. That way, you don't even have to worry about this being an issue.
Mary & George is being described as a historical psychodrama. It was created by British playwright and television screenwriter, D. C. Moore, with episodes being directed by Oliver Hermanus, Alex Winckler, and Florian Cossen. Moore also wrote one of the scripts and is an executive producer on the series. Joining him as an executive producer are Hermanus, Julianne Moore, and Liza Marshall.
Based on the non-fiction novel The King's Assassin by Benjamin Woolley, Mary & George follows a scheming mother-and-son duo who come up with a devious plan to claw their way into the Court of England to secure their future. Their target is King James I, and the first step in securing their future is seducing and winning him over.
Academy Award-winning actress Julianne Moore stars in one of the leading roles as Mary Villiers, Countess of Buckingham, a treacherous mother who schemes her way up the royal ranks by having her son seduce the King. Red, White & Royal Blue star Nicholas Galitzine takes on the other leading role as George Villiers, 1st Duke of Buckingham, Mary's son whom she molds to seduce King James I. The rest of the talented cast is made up of Tony Curran, Laurie Davidson, Trine Dyrholm, Nicola Walker, and many others.
