Pierce Brosnan Returns To Television In AMC’s Sweeping Drama. By Lori Acken

Inside: Top 10 Picks TV Everywhere New Releases New on HBO New on Showtime New on Starz New on Cinemax TV Entertainment Understanding Your Main Menu

Pierce Brosnan sits across from me at a bistro table in the Southern California sunshine. He wears an impeccably tailored, steel gray suit. His blue eyes gleam. That voice — Brosnan doesn’t just answer questions, he orates. And all I can think is Bond. James Bond.

That may soon change to McCullough. Eli McCullough.

Brosnan plays the wily Texas rancher and oilman in AMC’s new period drama The Son — his first starring role in series television since Remington Steele made the debonair Irishman a household name in the ’80s. Culled from Philipp Meyer’s best-selling American epic (Meyer also pens and produces the series), The Son weaves together two tales. One captures McCullough’s experiences as a brutally orphaned boy learning a cruel brand of survival from his Comanche captors. The other follows along as Eli — now a grandfather — battles for his family dynasty during the Bandit War of South Texas. The series title references McCullough’s birth — he arrived in the world on the same day the Lone Star State became an independent republic, earning him the title “The First Son of Texas” — but its nuances go well beyond his birthright. This is a generational tale, start to finish, as the elder McCullough tries to instill his pitiless business sense in his own sons, fair-minded married dad Pete (Henry Garrett) and bachelor lawyer Phineas (David Wilson Barnes).

“It felt fitting for me at this age and this time in life, as a man who has traveled down the road a fair ol’ bit and knows something of success and loss,” Brosnan says. “I loved it — because of this prototypical American hero, because of the determination that he has. The brutality and savagery of this man who is self-made and goes on to create an empire, and of the storytelling of the history of Texas.”

Drawn from Philippa Gregory’s novel of the same name, this exquisite eight-episode drama is a follow-up to The White Queen, and sees England ostensibly united by the marriage of Elizabeth of York (played by Jodie Comer) and King Henry VII (newcomer Jacob Collins-Levy). The new husband and wife’s initial hatred toward one another threatens to tear the kingdom apart. Ultimately, this is an epic battle for power with family loyalty being tested throughout their reign.

NEW SERIES!

It doesn’t take a genius to see that Oscar winner Geoffrey Rush makes a picture-perfect Einstein in Nat Geo’s new anthology series.

But what you’ll learn about the German-born physicist and the people who tore him down and built him up on his way to becoming a scientific legend is equally delicious. “We don’t want this show for a minute to feel like homework,” executive producer Ron Howard tells us.

Based on Rebecca Skloot’s heralded 2010 nonfiction bestseller and executive produced

by Oprah Winfrey, this impactful film centers on Virginia tobacco farmer Henrietta Lacks, whose cells — taken without her knowledge as she lay dying of cancer in 1951 — have had unprecedented impact in medicine.

Told through the eyes of Lacks’ daughter Deborah (played by Winfrey) and costarring Damages’ Rose Byrne as Skloot, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks chronicles a troubled offspring’s effort to learn more about the mother she never knew.

SEASON PREMIERE!

HBO’s spooky afterlife series launches its final season with a time jump and a continent jump, too.

Look for Justin Theroux’s Kevin Garvey Jr. to follow his mysterious dad (played by Scott Glenn, who becomes a series regular) to Australia. “The idea that the final season was going to take place in the days leading up to the seven-year anniversary of the departure — perhaps in anticipation of the final reckoning — it just felt like how do we not do that, especially if the audience knows that the series is coming to a close?” series co-creator Damon Lindelof tells us. “Even though it’s almost seven years after the initial Sudden Departure, it felt like there was a new way of re-examining it that was directly personal to Kevin, and we’ll be exploring that idea all season long.”

A scene called for snow to fall, and the special effects team was on hand to provide artificial snow, but the skies opened up and provided a late season dusting of the real thing. “For the next few days, whenever we’d shoot outside, we’d get snow,” co-director Josh Gordon recalls. “It was pretty incredible.”

Costume designer Bojana Nikitovic adds, “The basic look has to be the same because every Underworld fan wants to see Selene wearing those boots and corset and jacket.”
