Amazon Sets Premiere Date for Drama 'My Lady Jane' Starring Emily Bader, Edward Bluemel and Jordan Peters

Amazon has today announced the premiere date for its upcoming original drama series My Lady Jane starring Emily Bader, Edward Bluemel and Jordan Peters.






All 8 episodes of the first season will be available on Thursday, June 27.

The series serves as a radical retelling of English royal history, in which King Henry VIII's son Edward (Peters) does not die of tuberculosis, Lady Jane Grey (Bader) is not beheaded, and neither is her rascal of a husband Guildford (Bluemel). At the center of this rollicking new story, the brilliant and headstrong Jane is unexpectedly crowned queen overnight and finds herself the target of nefarious villains coming for the crown (and her head). The series is an epic tale of true love and high adventure, where the damsel in distress saves herself, her true love, and then the Kingdom.

In addition to Bader, Bluemel and Peters, the drama stars Dominic Cooper, Anna Chancellor, Rob Brydon, Jim Broadbent, Henry Ashton, Isabella Bronwson, Robyn Betteridge, Kate O'Flynn, Abbie Hern, Máiréad Tyers, Joe Klocek and Michael Workeye.

Gemma Burgess developed the drama and serves as co-showrunner alongside Meredith Glynn. They executive produce with Sarah Bradshaw, Laurie MacDonald and director Jamie Babbit. Amazon MGM Studios produces.
