Firebrand | Official Trailer | Alicia Vikander, Jude Law

In blood-soaked Tudor England, twice married, accomplished, and educated Katherine Parr (Vikander), reluctantly agrees to become the sixth wife of the tyrannical King Henry VIII (Law). Her consent to marry him carries great personal risk, given that her predecessors are either vanquished, beheaded, or dead. When Henry appoints her as Regent, the nation’s ruler during his absence when he departs to fight overseas, he lays a dangerous path for her. Henry’s courtiers, suspecting she’s sympathetic to radical Protestant beliefs that have taken root in the kingdom and are a threat to their power, scheme against her and cast doubts upon her fidelity to the increasingly ailing and paranoid King. Once Henry returns to England, his courtiers convince him to turn his fury on the nation’s radicals, including Katherine’s childhood friend Anne Askew, who becomes one of the scores of people convicted of treason and burned at the stake. Horrified and privately grieving, Katherine finds herself under ever-increasing scrutiny and suspicion. Knowing that even a whisper of scandal might lead to her downfall, Katherine must unleash her own scheme to fight for survival.

Fortunately Henry VIII died before he could kill her. She was not his favourite bunny in the end but a massive influence to Elizabeth I whom she protected as a child. Like so many women she died of sepsis having had a baby with her subsequent husband. She was very influential in her short life.

In retrospect, I think Catherine of Aragon and Catherine Parr are my favorite of his queens. Past portrayals focus overwhelmingly on Katherin of Aragon’s feud with Ann Boleyn, but little to no focus on the fact that she was a queen of militant and won victory for England against Scotland while Henry was abroad. For the record, I am aware of the Spanish princess miniseries. I saw the first season the book was substantially better! Catherine Parr also got to rule as queen regent in the kings absence during the war with France. And if memory serves, she was also also the first woman to be published at Cambridge.

Catherine was not at the battlefield!!!

[@antmagor]

@@RoyaltyFandom- I never said she was! do not twist my words. I said she was a queen militant. That means she took the country to war and won. Elizabeth the first never fought on the battlefield. And she was still labeled a warrior queen. The label does not mean they fought on the battlefield. The label means they went to war and won.

Jude Law and Alicia Vikander....I'm SOLD! They are phenomenal actors.

[@The_Deaf_Aussie]

That's Jude law? Holy crap.. I hardly recognize him!!!!

[@CJ-vw3dt]

I would love to see a show of Anne of Cleves live, hiw she managed to survive the king, not marrying, and becoming one of the richest women in England.

[@karenmartinez3702]

Excellent actors

[@dukeofglasgow9354]

[@bascoaful]

i cried a bit...

[@JesusChristisKingandLord]

Looks like a very nice movie :) Something I can look forward to.

[@maryhamric]

My aunt Catherine! Oh yeah!!!

[@annareiter952]

There are so many movies of this Henry that I simply don't care.

[@mujkocka]

Kate par was a lovely woman. Sadly fell for the bad boy who betrayed her with her step daughter under her roof. I,e a child molester

[@bostonblackie9503]

There is more to English history than Henry VIII and his wives!

[@JR-gh8lp]

Where is Jude Law?

This looks cheap and thrown together.

Hmm the writers are women, but the director is a man. So maybe this will be as feminist as it's trying to sell itself as.

[@sulesahin5]

Fiction means "lies"😅😅

[@Joker-et2je]

So Hollywood now with this Woman 👩🏻 Power/Feminism movement Every movie 🎥 like that now‼️

[@sandywichmann9292]

This is not simply a movie, it’s based on real English history. Cathrine Parr was the one wife who survived Henry, although not very long. If you think this has something to do with feminism- wait till the movie about Queen Mary and Queen Elisabeth I, Henry’s daughters, is released.. 😂😂😂

[@diegocorrea5143]

I wonder how much of that is truth or just a twisted version to make her like a modern woman... so fed up with this woke stupidity and patronising tales...

[@adriannespring8598]

Women have long been a lot more autonomous/active than modern media likes to admit. They were, after all, a big reason why racism is so systemic in America to this day. Daughters of the Confederacy saw to that.

[@purple-kp6mk]

Is it hard for you to conceive that back then, women were also autonomous and well-rounded human beings with fleshed out thoughts? Just because it was the standard for a subsection of humanity to be demure, doesn’t mean they were any less human back then. I promise you, women are so much more interesting and riveting when you accept them as they are, when you realise they think just like you, only the outer appearance is different. They have your same motivations and wishes.

[@TheMotherofTacos]

no, this is literally what happened word for word. I was there. I saw it all. it went down this exact way just to piss you, specifically, off

[@diegocorrea5143]

@@TheMotherofTacos good try lol.. with that nickname you just can make us laugh.. a funny nickname.... a proper grandma skill :))

[@susangarland6869]

@@purple-kp6mk If that's the case, why do movies producers keep making up this nonsense? This movie is just another poorly acted, poorly written, historically revisionist, "strong female" piece of trash. There's absolutely no truth to it whatsoever.
