The Big Picture Inspired by the best-selling book, the Prime Video original series My Lady Jane tells the story of Lady Jane Grey , as she unexpectedly finds herself crowned queen and a target for anyone who disagrees with her selection. This retelling of history set in an alt-fantasy Tudor world sees Jane as less of a damsel in distress and more of a badass woman whose strength and wit work in her favor to help her survive it all.

EMILY BADER: Sometimes they were clear. Clueless is referenced in the first episode with, “As if,” which I loved. And I didn’t know about Crocodile Dundee until afterwards.BADER: I’m sure there is a plethora of pop culture references. Is it also fun to have Jane be the one to save Guildford? How was it to get to have that moment, when it’s typically the other way around? BLUEMEL: Guildford is the damsel.

BLUEMEL: What’s so fun about it is the standoff between them. They are married. They say they’re not gonna do anything and they’re gonna be very sensible and they’re gonna get a divorce. And then, watching them both slowly crack, it’s like a game of chicken between them to see who’s gonna cave first and be like, “Oh, fine. Okay, I really fancy you. What are we gonna do about this?” That’s part of the joy of their relationship.

BLUEMEL: It’s a specifically amazing performance that I’ve never really seen before. She captures something that is so watchable, funny, and vile at the same time. Acting in scenes with her was genuinely terrifying, and then, off-screen, she’s the nicest person you’ve ever met. It’s truly shocking, the range she has.

The list of spoilers for this show includes a line that says not to talk about characters who are murdered, killed, dropped dead, or appear to be dead, which all seems to happen with regularity.
