Max looks world's away from his character Luke Posner in the first-look trailer for the series. In the clip, Max can be seen in regal garb with golden chains around his neck as he loses control as the King and snaps at his wife, Anne. The series is a mixture of scripted drama along with insights of historians. Speaking of joining the series, Max said:"You get to see a lot of different sides to both characters. And you, as the audience, can decide. Who's guilty for what happened. It's super educational and I'm so glad I did it." When Max was asked why he wanted to get involved in the project he said it's because every year on New Year he writes a letter and then seals it, and puts it away and reads it on (the following) New Year's Eve to see if anything came true. He continued: "The first things I wrote this year was to get on Netflix! That was my plan. So, when I found out, I was like 'Let's do this!" On what it was like to portray the legendary King, the actor added: 'It was really great. A fellow redhead! 'I have actually auditioned to play Henry VIII three times before this. 'If you look at the calibre - Eric Bana, Damian Lewis, Jonathan Rhys Meyers – they've all played Henry VIII – that's a great alumnus to be part of. 'Throughout my career, I play a lot of nice guys and parts that are quite similar to me, so this was a real challenge for me to step outside the box and){kind=link}
