The Great Season 2


The Great Season 2

Created by Australian Oscar®-nominated writer Tony McNamara, the hilarious dramedy series marches on with stars Elle Fanning, Nicholas Hoult and Australia's own Belinda Bromilow, with Gillian Anderson also guest-starring.

 

Stan announced that Catherine will continue her reign when the second season of Emmy Award-nominated comedy drama The Great debuts 20 November, the same day as the US and only on Stan.

The comedy drama, led by Elle Fanning (Super 8) and Nicholas Hoult (Stan's True History of the Kelly Gang), will return for another 10-episode run after it's first smash-hit season, joined by acclaimed actress Gillian Anderson.

In season two of The Great, Catherine finally takes the Russian throne for her own " but if she thought coup-ing her husband was difficult, it's nothing compared to the realities of 'liberating' a country that doesn't want to be. She'll battle her court, her team, even her own mother (played by guest star Gillian Anderson) in a bid to bring the enlightenment to Russia. Meanwhile she'll also battle her heart as Peter slowly transitions from much-hated husband, to prisoner? Ally? Lover? Ultimately Catherine will learn that to change a country, you must let it change you, that there is a fine line between idealism and delusion, and that becoming 'Great', will ask more of her than she could have imagined. 
 
The series stars Elle Fanning as Catherine, Nicholas Hoult, Phoebe Fox, Adam Godley, Gwilym Lee, Charity Wakefield, Douglas Hodge, Sacha Dhawan, Bayo Gbadamosi and Australian Belinda Bromilow. 

The Great is created, written and executive produced by Australian Oscar®-nominated writer Tony McNamara and executive produced by Marian Macgowan, Mark Winemaker, Elle Fanning, Nicholas Hoult, Echo Lake's Brittany Kahan Ward, Doug Mankoff and Andrew Spaulding, Thruline's Josh Kesselman and Ron West, and Matt Shakman. The project is produced by Civic Center Media in association with MRC Television.

The Great Season 2 premieres 20 November, same day as the US and only on Stan.
