Jodie Turner-Smith Stuns as Anne Boleyn in New Psychological Thriller
The British actress and model will be portraying Anne Boleyn in a three-part psychological thriller, Anne Boleyn, from Channel 5, Fable Pictures, and Sony Pictures Television.
On February 11, Jodie Turner-Smith took to Instagram to share an image from her latest project. The Queen and Slim actress will be portraying Anne Boleyn, one of Henry VIII’s wives. Turner-Smith is seen wearing a headpiece, veil, and a black dress, along with a gold pendant attached to a pearl necklace. Turner-Smith is seen gazing into the camera with sad eyes, desperately trying to tell viewers a tale of despair.
Turner-Smith took to Instagram with the caption, “Le Temps Viendra, Je Anne Boleyn” which translates to “The Time Will Come, I Anne Boleyn.” This appears in Boleyn’s Book of Hours. Turner-Smith is paying homage to the late Boleyn with her Instagram post.
The show will follow the Tudor dynasty in a fascinating new way. Unlike many period pieces, the story will focus more on being a psychological thriller to expose the history of the monarchy, instead of the typical drama-centric story many other period pieces take on. With writer Eve Hedderwick Turner, the show will give a more feminist viewpoint to the era.
