When did filming for season 2 of Wolf Hall begin?
The answer to this question is a bit complicated, as filming for the second season of Wolf Hall began even before the first season aired! This was in order to accommodate the schedules of the show's stars, Damien Lewis and Mark Rylance. Lewis had filming commitments for another project, and Rylance was set to appear in a play in London. As a result, the production team had to work around these schedules, and ended up filming the majority of the second season before the first even aired.
This posed a bit of a challenge for the writers, as they had to ensure that the plot of the second season would not spoil anything that happened in the first. They also had to be careful not to give away any plot points in interviews or promotional materials. In the end, it all worked out, and fans were treated to another amazing season of Wolf Hall.
When is the premiere date for season 2 of Wolf Hall?
The premiere date for season 2 of Wolf Hall has not yet been announced. The first season of the show aired in the UK in January 2015, and it is unclear when the second season will premiere in the US. It is possible that the show will air in the US in the fall of 2015, but this has not been confirmed. The show is based on the book series by Hilary Mantel, and it tells the story of Thomas Cromwell, who was a key figure in the court of Henry VIII. Season 2 will likely continue to follow Cromwell as he navigates the complicated political landscape of Tudor England.
