The Starz series Mary & George, inspired by the true story of Mary Villiers and her son George, delves into the world of power, wealth, and deadly consequences in the court of England. Nicholas Galitzine discusses his experience working with Julianne Moore and the exploration of the tender love story between George and King James I.
The Big Picture The Starz series Mary & George, inspired by the true story of Mary Villiers and her son George , tells a tale of scheming and seduction in the court of England. Unable to reach the levels of power and wealth that she desires, Mary wants the naïve George to step up and pursue King James I to achieve the prestige that has eluded their family.
GALITZINE: It’s very humbling, and it’s just so exciting. I’ve been working as an actor for a decade now, and there was a lot of hard work to get to this point. I’m very thankful that people are hiring me, and I’m getting these wonderful opportunities. I feel like I’m learning so much from these Academy Award-winning actors.
And then, you show up on a set like Mary & George, with the lavish sets and incredible costumes. Is it ever so surreal that you just need to take a moment? GALITZINE: She was just so sweet and kind to everyone around her, and I think that really settled a lot of people. It was definitely helpful that I’d just come from working with Annie . To be fair, I’ve worked with some really incredible, iconic people over the last few years, like Uma Thurman, Pierce Brosnan, and Minnie Driver, so there was less intimidation going into that experience. Julie is also very opinionated and very focused.
I love how all those moments are not just there for the sake of being there, but they all feel like they’re telling story and furthering story.
