Didn’t she have the best claim if one considered Henry VIII’s marriage to Anne Boleyn invalid and Elizabeth I’s birth illegitimate? It’s part of the logic they used to put Lady Jane Grey on the throne, and she had even less of a claim than Mary. If you don’t count Elizabeth in the succession, with Henry VIII’s line…

It also features The Virgin Queen’s “trusted associate and lover Robert Dudley” so I’m guessing historical accuracy isn’t what they were going for here. And yeah, I know, it’s possible she wasn’t as chaste as has been suggested but there’s no actual evidence that Dudley was her lover.

They sure do like to miscast Margot Robbie in stuff
