After releasing in the U.K last month, the seductive 17th-century historical drama “Mary & George” has arrived on Starz. Now, those of us across the pond can properly fall in love with its lead Nicholas Galitzine in the English actor’s third major role of a breakout year.

The period piece chronicles the real-life story of Mary Villiers (Julianne Moore), a woman in 17th century England who was so hungry for power that she successfully pushed her son George (Galitzine) into becoming lovers with King James (Tony Curran). Created by D.C. Moore, the seven-episode series is based on the non-fiction book “The King’s Assassin: The Fatal Affair of George Villiers and James” and premiered on Starz on April 5.

In an interview with Variety ahead of its U.S release, Galitizine said he believes the sex on the show is “really integral to the plot and not just salacious.” While he also feels a genuine love developed between George and the king, “George’s appetite couldn’t be satiated.”

The show has received rave reviews this month, with Variety TV critic Alison Herman describing it as “darkly comic and lushly erotic, both boldly anachronistic and surprisingly true to history.”
