Starring Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Natalie Dormer, Henry Cavill, Jeremy Northam, Maria Doyle Kennedy, James Frain, Nick Dunning, and Peter O’Toole

Heads will roll in the second season of The Tudors. Henry and Anne are king and queen, but this stops neither Henry's roving eye nor his suspicion of those closest to him.

GENRE(S): Drama
CREATED BY: Michael Hirst
FIRST AIR DATE: March 30, 2008

Hollywood Reporter Ray Richmond
The acting here is first-rate, the details sharp and the cinematography superb. In other words, Tudors hasn't lost a step.
