monarch, King Charles I, was publicly executed,having been tried and convicted of treason by Parliament. This heralded ten years of Britain as a republic before, in May 1660, the monarchy was restored with the accession of King Charles II. While publicly planning his own lavish coronation to take place the following year, in April 1661, the new king had, behind the scenes, ordered an exhaustive search for the death warrant ordering his father’s execution. On finding it and the 59 signatories appended to it, Charles ordered the biggest manhunt in royal history. Told through dramatic reconstruction, with the actors serving as primary storytellers – Sheila Atim for the Royalists, Jared Harris for the Regicides, and Joseph Fiennes for King Charles II – the mini-series plays out as a Jacobean tragedy detailing the king’s lifelong obsession to hunt down, try and kill all those responsible for his father’s execution and his own desperate flight into exile.

SEE JULIANNE MOORE, NICHOLAS GALITZINE, TONY CURRAN, LAURIE DAVIDSON IN 1ST MARY AND GEORGE 17TH CENTURY COSTUME SERIES! THE THORN IN THE CROWN EPIC HISTORICAL MOVIE ON KING CHARLES I TRIAL AND EXECUTION IN WORKS!

 THE THORN IN THE CROWN 

EPIC MOVIE ON CHARLES I

Well, it was kinda expected after the coronation of our dear Charles III: Mike Medavoy (worked on seven Oscar winning movies) and Keith Chapman (who created Paw Patrol and Bob the Builder) will

King Charles I was quite a dandy tyrant

produce epic historical movie THE THORN IN THE CROWN which tells the story of John Cooke, a humble lawyer and prototype of a human rights campaigner, who in 1649 London accepted the unprecedented and perilous brief to prosecute King Charles I for treason. All but lost to history, this remarkable figure has been plucked from obscurity and pieced together alongside renowned, revered, and reviled historical figures, King Charles I, Oliver Cromwell & King Charles II. In 1660, that same crown which was recently bestowed on the head of King Charles III, was newly forged to rest on the head of his namesake, King Charles II. Eleven years earlier in 1649, Charles II’s father, King Charles I, was executed and the crown that he had worn was destroyed – and the monarchy along with it. Cooke’s aim was to change the world, against the odds and no matter the cost, and somehow succeed.
