    Wolf Hall Returns: Mark Rylance, Thomas Brodie-Sangster, and Jonathan Pryce Seen on Set of New Series for First Time in Eight Years

    Beloved period drama Wolf Hall is set to return to screens, with the all-star cast getting to work on filming in Bristol on Wednesday. 

    Earlier this week, the BBC announced the return of the popular period drama eight years after the show first aired and work was underway on the series when Mark Rylance, Thomas Brodie-Sangster and Jonathan Pryce were seen on-set.  

    Wolf Hall is set to make a comeback based on the final book in Dame Hilary Mantel’s trilogy, The Mirror And The Light, with Mark playing the lead role of Thomas Cromwell, Thomas as his secretary Rafe Sadler and Jonathan as Cardinal Wolsey . 

    The drama about the life of Cromwell has so far seen his rise to power – and the second and final season will showcase his struggle to hold on to his position as King Henry VIII’s chief minister. 

    The return of the show comes in the wake of author Dame Hilary’s tragic death in September 2022, after she suddenly suffered a massive stroke aged 70.

    Filming is due to begin shortly, with Mark Rylance returning as the lead role of Cromwell, while Damian Lewis stars as Henry VIII. 

    The first six-part season, which followed the first two novels, aired in 2015 and won BAFTA and Golden Globe awards. 

    Fans were elated at news of the show’s return, with one saying on X, formerly Twitter: ‘Wolf Hall is a great series so this is good news.’ 

    A second added: ‘Wolf Hall is probably my favourite period drama of all time and it’s coming back ahhhhhhhh.’ 

    Another exclaimed: ‘Brilliant can’t wait!’ 

    Season one portrayed Cromwell’s rise to power as Henry sought to divorce Anne Boleyn – played by The Crown’s Claire Foy – which at the time was illegal under the Catholic church. 

    Cromwell was responsible for the bill that made Henry head of the Church of England, which enabled him to divorce Catherine of Aragon and marry Anne instead. 

    The end of the series saw Anne’s execution, as well as the downfall of Sir Thomas More. 

    In the upcoming season, the King’s chief minister is immediately placed in a vulnerable position as he came from humble roots with no army of his own.

    The new series will showcase his struggle to hold on to power and the final four years of his life, while Jane Seymour – Henry’s third wife – will be introduced to the court. 

    Kate Phillips will play Jane while Lilit Lesser plays Henry’s eldest daughter Mary.

    The official synopsis for the new series reads: ‘May, 1536. Anne Boleyn, Henry’s second wife, is dead. As the axe drops, Thomas Cromwell emerges from the bloodbath to continue his climb to power and wealth, while his formidable master, Henry, settles to short-lived happiness with his third queen, Jane Seymour.

    ‘Cromwell, a man with only his wits to rely on, has no great family to back him, and no private army. 

    ‘Navigating the moral complexities that accompany the exercise of power in this brutal and bloody time, Cromwell is caught between his desire to do what is right and his instinct to survive. But in the wake of Henry VIII having executed his queen, no one is safe.

    ‘Despite rebellion at home, traitors plotting abroad and the threat of invasion testing Henry’s regime to breaking point, Cromwell’s robust imagination sees a new country in the mirror of the future. 

    ‘All of England lies at his feet, ripe for innovation and religious reform. But as fortune’s wheel turns, Cromwell’s enemies are gathering in the shadows.

    ‘The inevitable question remains: how long can anyone survive under Henry’s cruel and capricious gaze?’

    Director Peter Kosminsky said: ‘The Mirror and the Light picks up exactly where Wolf Hall ended, with the execution of Henry VIII’s second wife, Anne Boleyn.

    ‘I’m overjoyed to be able to reunite the extraordinary cast we were lucky enough to assemble for Wolf Hall, led by the brilliant Mark Rylance and Damian Lewis, with the original creative team of Gavin Finney (DOP), Pat Campbell (Designer) and Joanna Eatwell (Costume Designer).

    ‘We are all determined to complete what we started – and to honour the final novel written by one of the greatest literary figures of our age, Hilary Mantel.’

    BBC Chief Content Officer Charlotte Moore added: ‘A stunning and unforgettable adaptation of Hilary Mantel’s sublime novels, Wolf Hall quickly established itself as one of the all-time great television dramas, with millions of adoring viewers across the UK and around the World.

    ‘Almost a decade on we’re delighted to have reunited this exceptional creative team and lead cast to conclude Mantel’s thrilling saga on the BBC.’

    Wolf Hall series one is available to watch on BBC iPlayer in the UK.
