Earlier in December Julianne spoke of her ability to raise a family and continue her creative career, admitting it was always her "intention" to do both. 

"I didn't know that it was going to be possible because it's kind of a longshot, right?" she told Forbes, adding: "It's hard to have a creative career, but I also knew that I wasn't willing to sacrifice having a family for that. That thing that we all hope for – being able to combine work and family, I'm managing to achieve it, so I really value all of it."

Based on a true story, the young George – played by Red, White and Royal Blue's Nicholas Galitzine – used his charisma and beauty, encouraged by his mother, to climb his way up the ladder into British royalty, changing the mother and son's lives forever as he became a trusted advisor to King James, and later King Charles 1. 

"Mary & George is an audacious historical psychodrama about a treacherous mother and son who schemed, seduced and killed to conquer the Court of England and the bed of its King," the synopsis reads. 

Julianne, Nicholas and Spooks actress Nicola Walker are joined by The Wonder’s Niamh Algar, Slow Horses star Sean Gilder, SAS: Rogue Heroes actor Jacob McCarthy and The Nest’s Mirren Mack.
