Finally got castings new for that “My Lady Jane” comedy series they’re making at Amazon and I’m so excited to see that they’ve added some of my favorite British actors like Dominic Cooper as Edward Seymour, Rob Brydon as John Dudley, and Anna Chancellor as Jane Grey’s mom. They’ve also added a few other actors in unnamed roles but some are young enough that I think they are adding Queen Elizabeth I and Robert Dudley as they weren’t originally in the book but 2 of the younger cast look like them. The book again is a supernatural comedy AU about Jane Grey if she lived and her marriage to Guildford Dudley.

I bet Dudley would’t have dared to answer like this to King Henry VIII...:)

“Since we have received nothing from our first parents wherein we may glory”, Edward wrote in a telling statement of how he had come to view the tyranny and excesses of Henry VIII’s reign, “I am compelled, reverend father, since I have been called, by Divine Goodness and your agency and ministry, to this connection in Christ and a partaking of the gospel, daily to give thanks to God for his infinite and unbounded (though underserved) bounty towards me.”
—Edward VI, King of England (1547-1553), to reformer Martin Bruce. In: SKIDMORE, C. “Edward VI: The Lost King of England”.

Edward VI: Henry VIII's Overshadowed Son by Stephanie Kline #NetGalley #ARC #BookReview
When discussing the history of Tudor England, King Edward VI is often overlooked, but one historian thinks that' a mistake. #EdwardVI #HenryVIIIsovershadowedson by #StephanieKline #NetGalley #ARC #BookReview #TudorEngland #HenryVIII #queenelizabeth
For too long, King Edward VI has been pushed to the very edges of Tudor history – overlooked in favour of some of the more vibrant personalities of his family members, such as Henry VIII and Elizabeth I. Known as the ‘boy king’ of the Tudor dynasty, he is often remembered for little more than the ambitious councillors who governed England during his minority. His reign, however, and the…

So funny seeing Amazon Prime is making a show about Lady Jane Grey but it’s based off the “My Lady Jane” historical fiction-fantasy novel where it’s not the story we know but more like “The Princess Bride” with Jane, Guildford Dudley, and King Edward VI. Guildford and the Dudley’s also apparently have magical powers and from what I can tell Elizabeth, Robert, Mary, and the others we know from history and currently seeing on “Becoming Elizabeth” are there. It’s already announced the 3 leads and Guildford is played by Edward Bluemel, who in real life is actually good friends with Jamie Blackley so I’m very curious who is going to play Robert in this. LOL They should be annoying the rest of the cast soon as it sounds like it’s starting filming going by Deadline’s article. This is something I didn’t know I wanted but will totally check it out.
