About The Great (2020 TV series) in brief
The Great is an American comedy-drama television series loosely based on the rise of Catherine the Great. The series stars Elle Fanning and Nicholas Hoult as the Empress Catherine II and Emperor Peter III of All Russia, respectively. All 10 episodes of the first season were released on Hulu on May 15, 2020. In July 2020, Hulu renewed the series for a second season. The Great is based upon Tony McNamara’s play, which premiered at the Sydney Theatre Company in 2008.
It was initially pitched as having six seasons, having planned to introduce key historical figures in Catherine’s life as the series continued. Hulu has described ‘The Great’ as ‘anti-historical’ and has described the show as ‘gorgeous, if gratuitous, The Great can’t quite live up to its namesake, but delicious performances and a wicked sense of humor make it a pretty good watch’
