Following yesterday’s first photos of Gillian Anderson in the series, Hulu has released the trailer for the second season of its anti-historical dark comedy series “The Great” returning November 19th.
The Tony McNamara-created series satirizes the story of Russian empress Catherine the Great (Elle Fanning) and her rise to power as well as her marriage to Emperor Peter III (Nicholas Hoult).
The ten-episode second season will see Catherine coup Peter and take the throne for herself, after which she must fight everyone in her life to bring the ideology of the Age of the Enlightenment to her reluctant country.
Anderson, Phoebe Fox, Adam Godley, Gwilym Lee, Charity Wakefield, Douglas Hodge, Sacha Dhawan, Bayo Gbadamosi, and Belinda Bromilow also star.
