The Mirror and the Light is the upcoming six-part television series airing on PBS's Masterpiece, following the life of Thomas Cromwell after the events of Anne Boleyn’s execution. Starring Mark Rylance and Damian Lewis, the series continues from where the previous adaptation, which covered the first two novels of Hilary Mantel's trilogy, concluded. This final installment promises to explore Cromwell's complex character and his ascent and eventual downfall in Tudor England, maintaining the original creative team and the rich storytelling that captivated audiences previously.
Mark Rylance sat quietly and alone, his black-capped head bowed, his eyes closed. Nearby in a grand chamber, Damian Lewis stood resplendent in a huge gold jacket, playing King Henry VIII.
The six-part Mirror and the Light, which will air on PBS's Masterpiece starting Sunday, begins exactly where the last one ended, in 1536, as Anne Boleyn is beheaded.
