Karen Gillan To Play Mary Tudor & Patsy Ferran Her Jester In Guy Jenkin’s Historical Comedy ‘Fools’; Altitude Launching Sales At EFM
Karen Gillan will play Mary Tudor, in Guy Jenkin's Fools, an upcoming period comedy about the monarch’s friendship with her female court Jester.
Brenda Blethyn( Secrets & Lies) will also star, as will Jim Broadent ( Moulin Rouge) who plays a scheming Cardinal. The pious, and apparently humorless queen finds relief in her brilliant slapstick routines and they strike up an unlikely friendship. Fools will turn the conventions of a historical film inside-out, and promises to be subversive, striking and very funny.”
