The Great Season 2 Trailer

The Great Season 2 Trailer

The reign of Catherine The Great is upon us, with the official trailer for the second season of The Great revealed today by Stan offering the first look at Gillian Anderson in the role of Catherine’s mother in the Emmy-nominated comedy-drama by Australian writer, Tony McNamara.

Season two sees Catherine finally takes the Russian throne for her own — but if she thought coup-ing her husband was difficult, it’s nothing compared to the realities of ‘liberating’ a country that doesn’t want to be. She’ll battle her court, her team, even her own mother (played by guest star Gillian Anderson) in a bid to bring the enlightenment to Russia. Meanwhile she’ll also battle her heart as Peter slowly transitions from much-hated husband, to prisoner? Ally? Lover? Ultimately Catherine will learn that to change a country, you must let it change you, that there is a fine line between idealism and delusion, and that becoming ‘Great’, will ask more of her than she could have imagined. 
 
The series stars Elle Fanning as Catherine, Nicholas Hoult, Phoebe Fox, Adam Godley, Gwilym Lee, Charity Wakefield, Douglas Hodge, Sacha Dhawan, Bayo Gbadamosi and Australian Belinda Bromilow. 

The Great is created, written and executive produced by Australian Oscar®-nominated writer Tony McNamara and executive produced by Marian MacgowanMark Winemaker, Elle Fanning, Nicholas Hoult, Echo Lake’s Brittany Kahan Ward, Doug Mankoff and Andrew Spaulding, Thruline’s Josh Kesselman and Ron West, and Matt Shakman. The project is produced by Civic Center Media in association with MRC Television.

The Great Season 2 premieres 20 November, same day as the US and only on Stan.
