Henry VIII
Jonathan Rhys Meyers
Jonathan Rhys Meyers’s Henry VIII turned The Tudors into Showtime historical soap — movie-star abs, wives as foreign policy, a court that dresses viciousness in velvet. Natalie Dormer’s Anne Boleyn, accuracy arguments that never once slowed the seduction. TV Flash files him as 2000s prestige-smolder, the crown as a bedroom and a blade.
