The Tudors: The Complete Third Season

“The racy, richly appointed series” (Los Angeles Times) follows Jonathan Rhys Meyers’ Golden Globe®-nominated portrayal of the young King Henry VIII, a ruler whose reign changed the course of history forever. An artist, musician, theologian and sportsman, King Henry VIII was the perfect Renaissance ruler, but the failure of his wives to produce a male heir brought out his darker side. At the height of his political power during the show’s junior season, Henry is beset by difficulties – both personal and professional. After a series of divorces, beheadings and an internal uprising within the Tudor Dynasty, the season closes with Henry finding a new lover -- Katherine Howard (Tamzin Merchant) – a very young and beautiful woman.

Featuring supporting performances from Henry Cavill as the Duke of Suffolk, James Frain as Thomas Cromwell, and singer Joss Stone as Henry’s fourth wife, Anne of Cleves, THE TUDORS continues to garner critical acclaim receiving a 2009 Emmy Award for Outstanding Cinematography for a One Hour Series, in addition to four other nominations. The show’s fourth, and final season will debut April 11.
