This new eight-part period drama chronicles the infamous historical figure’s beginnings from a young dauphine to the last queen of France. It follows a young Marie Antoinette as she learns the rules and secrets of the court and attempts to re-create Versailles in her image: free, independent and feminist. But her successes provoke jealousy and rivalry, and her royal enemies will do everything they can to bring her down.
The series stars Emilia Schüle as the title character, with Louis Cunningham as the dauphin of France, Louis XVI.
