This new novelization will cover the third season of THE TUDORS, which will follow the king as he weds third queen Jane Seymour (played by Anita Briem) and then Anne of Cleves . The new SHOWTIME dramatic series THE TUDORS, stars Golden Globe(R)-winner Jonathan Rhys-Meyers ( Mission: Impossible III, Match Point, Elvis ) as a young Henry VIII. Emmy(R) and Golden Globe(R)-nominated actor Sam Neill ( Jurassic Park, Little Fish ), Jeremy Northam (CBS' Martin & Lewis, The Net, Gosford Park ) and Henry Cavill ( Tristan & Isolde ) also make up the cast. THE TUDORS will focus on the rarely dramatized, tumultuous early years of King Henry VIII's nearly 40-year omnipotent reign (1509-1547) of England. In addition to dalliances with famous female consorts Catherine of Aragon and the infamous Anne Boleyn, the series delves into Henry's most notable political relationships, including those with philosopher Sir Thomas More, Cardinal Wolsey, head of the Catholic Church of England during its break with Rome, and Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk and Henry VIII's closest friend.
