Who Plays Tudor Queen Anne Boleyn?
Jodie Turner-Smith has grown—deservedly—comfortable in a crown. The actress, whose turn as Queen in Melina Matsoukas’s Queen and Slim earned her widespread critical acclaim, is taking it back a few centuries to play Tudor Queen Anne Boleyn in the three-part psychological drama Anne Boleyn for English broadcaster Channel 5. Her death by beheading serves as only one of several colorful moments in her complicated marriage—she was also accused of treason and witchcraft.
She’s endlessly fascinating for that reason,” Turner-Smith told ELLE in her January digital cover story. Turner-Smith said she hopes to “tell the story of the woman who sits at the center of the myth, and make that story an accessible one—one that’s not entirely about class, but about humanity. Here’s what we know so far about Turner-Smith’s newest chapter.
After “failing” to provide her husband with a male heir, she must face not only the king’s wrath (and infidelity), but also stake out a path for her family, even if she must die for it.

After completing filming in Yorkshire in December 2020, the Tudor tale recently aired in the U.K. and is set to be distributed internationally, though a release date is yet to be announced. Despite the show receiving mixed reviews from critics and viewers—and extensive backlash from Turner-Smith’s casting—the actress’s performance has been roundly praised.
Who Is The First Black Actress To Portray The Tudor Queen On-Screen?
Watch : Joshua Jackson & Jodie Turner-Smith Welcome First Child We’re losing our heads over this news! AMC+ today announced that it has acquired the new three-part psychological thriller Anne Boleyn, starring Jodie Turner-Smith in the title role. The drama that is being called groundbreaking for its casting of the first Black actress to portray the Tudor queen on-screen.
Casting Jodie as one of history’s most infamous queens was a topic of debate on social media when the show originally aired on Britain’s public service broadcaster, Channel 5, this summer. As a Black woman, I can understand being marginalized. I have a lived experience of what limitation and marginalization feel like, Jodie said in an interview cited by The New York Times.
Where Was Anne Boleyn Filmed?
The drama series, filmed around the Yorkshire countryside (more on that in our guide to where Anne Boleyn was filmed ), is set to take place during Anne’s final five months prior to her execution, when she was beheaded for treason in 1536. In an exclusive interview with RadioTimes.com, series writer Eve Hedderwick Turner said that she wanted to do Anne’s story “justice”. “I feel sort of quite moved whenever I think about [her] and think, ‘God, I hope I’m doing you [Anne Boleyn] justice’,” she said.
In the first 20-second teaser clip, released by the broadcaster in April 2021, we see Queen & Slim actress Jodie Turner-Smith in the title role, dressed all in black except for a white veil and solemnly striding past assembled courtiers. Read on for everything you need to know about Anne Boleyn. Anne Boleyn release date CONFIRMED: Anne Boleyn is set to premiere on Channel 5 on Tuesday 1st June at 9pm.
The series is directed by BAFTA Award-winning director Lynsey Miller (Deadwater Fell, The Boy with the Topknot) and written by newcomer Eve Hedderwick Turner. Anne Boleyn cast Queen & Slim actress Jodie Turner-Smith plays the titular role, Queen Anne Boleyn, wife to Tudor king Henry VIII (played by Mark Stanley). Trigonometry’s Thalissa Teixeira, who stars as Henry VIII’s mistress Madge Shelton, exclusively told RadioTimes.com that the inclusion of actors of colour in Anne Boleyn was not an example of colour-blind casting, but instead an example of being “identity-conscious”.
“And I think that was probably made bigger by the fact that, you know – she was such an impressive person. And someone who really could dominate at times, which I think for him was a bit of a rarity. Channel 5 Meanwhile Thalisaa Teixeira plays Henry VIII’s mistress, Madge Shelton, who is also a lady in waiting to Anne Boleyn.
Channel 5 As reported by Deadline, the upcoming series Anne Boleyn “shines a feminist light on the final months of Boleyn’s life, re-imagining her struggle with Tudor England’s patriarchal society, her desire to secure a future for her daughter, Elizabeth, and the brutal reality of her failure to provide Henry with a male heir”. As the series covers the final months of her life, it will likely chart her downfall in 1536, including her miscarriage, the rise of her rival Jane Seymour (and Henry’s third wife), and the arrests of Anne’s alleged lovers.

Channel 5 Meanwhile Thalisaa Teixeira plays Henry VIII’s mistress, Madge Shelton, who is also a lady in waiting to Anne Boleyn.
Channel 5 As reported by Deadline, the upcoming series Anne Boleyn “shines a feminist light on the final months of Boleyn’s life, re-imagining her struggle with Tudor England’s patriarchal society, her desire to secure a future for her daughter, Elizabeth, and the brutal reality of her failure to provide Henry with a male heir”. As the series covers the final months of her life, it will likely chart her downfall in 1536, including her miscarriage, the rise of her rival Jane Seymour (and Henry’s third wife), and the arrests of Anne’s alleged lovers.
