Wolf Hall

Based on the historically accurate book of the same title, this drama chronicles Cromwell’s ascent to becoming King Henry VIII’s most trusted advisor. In the 1520s, England teeters on the brink of catastrophe. Without a male heir, the King’s death could plunge the nation into civil war. Henry VIII seeks to annul his two-decade-long marriage to wed Anne Boleyn, facing opposition from the Pope and much of Europe. Enter Thomas Cromwell: a unique figure, both charming and intimidating, an idealist and an opportunist, skilled at understanding people and relentless in his ambitions. However, Henry is unpredictable, shifting from affectionate to murderous. Cromwell aids him in overcoming resistance, but what will be the cost of his success?
