“My Lady Jane” has been axed by Amazon Prime Video following the conclusion of its first season. The series, which premiered its eight-episode season on June 27, was a historical fantasy drama adapted from the novel penned by Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton, and Jodi Meadows.
The ensemble cast featured Emily Bader, Edward Bluemel, Jordan Peters, Anna Chancellor, Dominic Cooper, Kate O’Flynn, Rob Brydon, Abbie Hern, Isabella Brownson, Robyn Betteridge, Henry Ashton, Máiréad Tyers, Michael Workeye, Joe Klocek, Brandon Grace, and Will Keen.
In a unique twist within an alternate universe, “My Lady Jane” offered a reimagined rendition of the life of Lady Jane Grey, the young Tudor noblewoman who briefly held the title of Queen of England before meeting her tragic fate through execution in 1553. Departing from the constraints of historical accuracy, the show presented Lady Jane as an independent figure, weaving together elements of adventure, fantasy, humor, and love into the narrative.
