FIRST IMAGES OF WILL SHARPE AND PAUL BETTANY IN SKY'S PERIOD SET SERIES AMADEUS ON THE FAMOUS 18TH CENTURY COMPOSER

 SKY'S AMADEUS SERIES 
1ST WILL SHARPE AND PAUL BETTANY IMAGES
Sky has revealed first images with Will Sharpe in the lead role in their AMADEUS mini series set within the musical hub of bustling Vienna at the end of the 18th century, where 25 year-old Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart arrives in the city no longer a child and determined to carve his own path. Recently unemployed and without the management of his father, Amadeus finds an unlikely ally in a young singer who will become his wife, fiery Constanze (Gabrielle Creevy). Her connections help bring him into the orbit of the court composer Antonio Salieri (Paul Bettany), setting the three of them on a collision course that will ultimately define their lives and their legacies for years to come. Hero of his own story but villain to history, Salieri’s envy turns vengeful as he uses any means necessary to thwart Mozart and protect his position in the establishment. The five part drama will air later this year on Sky. 
 
WHO ELSE IS IN THE CAST?  
 Rory Kinnear stars as Emperor Joseph, Lucy Cohu as Cecilia Weber, Jonathan Aris as Leopold Mozart, Jessica Alexander as Katerina, Hugh Sachs as Von Strack, Paul Bazely as Von Swieten, Rupert Vansittart as Rosenberg, Anastasia Martin as Aloysia Weber, Nancy Farino as Josepha Weber, Olivia-Mai Barrett as Sophie Weber and Viola Prettejohn as Princess Elizabeth with Jyuddah Jaymes as Franz Süssmayr.

  1. Two Mozart based miniseries are on the making. Wonder who will show them in America?

    1. I imagine nobody will show the German one as Beta Film does not have partners in USA, either for Sisi, for Rise of the Raven (which strangely enough has a Canadian broadcaster) nor for Mozart Mozart.
