Elle will soon return to her role as Catherine the Great in Hulu's The Great after a second season was confirmed.

The comedy period show follows Catherine the Great's marriage to Emperor Peter. In the first episode of season one – which debuted in 2020 - she discovered that her dream of married life was entirely wrong and that her new husband is a terrible person.

Elle previously opened up about the role to EW, saying: "Six months of every day something bizarre and exciting is going on on set. So there's definitely never a dull moment on this set and lots of laughter.

"Nick [Hoult] and I both crack very easily, so we had to get it together because we would like have these laughing attacks constantly. So that was something."

Speaking of filming sex scenes, she added: "I think with Peter and Catherine, their scenes are just totally to get an heir. That's it. And Nick has to say some very bizarre lines that most of the time I was biting a pillow laughing so hard.

"I think we both like to challenge ourselves, Nick and I, and we're trying to push each other's buttons and he's trying to make me laugh and trying to go there. So I think it really helps those scenes."
