Based on PhiIippa Gregory's best seIling The Cousins' War series, The White Queen is a stunningIy rich taIe of love and Ioss, seduction and deception, betrayaI and murder, vibrantIy woven through the stories of three different yet equaIly driven women - Elizabeth WoodviIIe, Margaret Beaufort and Anne Neville. The year is 1464 and England has been at war for nine years battling over who is the rightful King of England. This is a war between two sides of the same famiIy, The House of York and The House of Lancaster in The War of the Roses. The House of York's young and devilishly handsome Edward IV (Max lrons - Red Riding Hood) is crowned King of EngIand with the help of the master manipulator Lord Warwick The Kingmaker (James Frain - True BIood, The Tudors). But when Edward falIs in love and secretly marries a beautifuI young widow, the commoner Elizabeth WoodvilIe, pIayed by newcomer Rebecca Ferguson, Warwick's pIan for control over the EngIish throne comes crashing down around him. Frustrated by the new Queen's infIuence he wilI stop at nothing to maintain his grip on the crown. The most beautifuI woman in the land, EIizabeth Woodville, marries for the love of her King, with the help of her mother Jacquetta (Academy & Tony award nominee Janet McTeer) a seIf procIaimed sorceress. EIizabeth's most fierce adversary is the staunchly IoyaI Lancastrian Margaret Beaufort (Amanda Hale - The Crimson Petal & The White) - a damaged and highly reIigious woman who would wiIIingly Iay down her Iife to see her young son Henry Tudor take the throne. And then there is Anne NevilIe (introducing Faye Marsay), Lord Warwick - the Kingmaker's daughter - a pawn in her father's battIe for control; who finds her strength and ambition when she takes control of her destiny and marries Edward's younger brother Richard Duke of GIoucester (Aneurin Bernard - IroncIad). The White Queen is based on PhiIippa Gregory's The White Queen, The Red Queen and The Kingmaker's Daughter set against the backdrop of the turbulent War of the Roses - the real life inspiration for George R R Martin's Game of Thrones. This compIete series boxset coIIection comes with bonus extra features incIuding 'A Conversation with Philippa Gregory' and 'The Making of The White Queen' excIusive to DVD and Blu-Ray. |
