Cromwell is as complex as he is unforgettable: a politician and a fixer, a diplomat and a father, a man who both defied and defined his age. The six part series will trace the final four years of Cromwell’s life, completing his journey from self-made man to the most feared, influential figure of his time. The BBC and Masterpiece PBS have announced Wolf Hall: The Mirror and the Light, based on the final novel in Hilary Mantel’s trilogy. Mark Rylance, Damian Lewis and Jonathan Pryce will return for a second and final season of Wolf Hall, to begin production in the UK soon.
