As of today, the Starz series “Becoming Elizabeth” delivers a youth portrait of the much-sung about English Queen Elizabeth I. This contemporary of William Shakespeare should not be confused with the current English Queen Elizabeth II – she has been on the throne longer than her famous redhead predecessor lived.
Elizabeth I is portrayed by real countess
Because of her historical relevance, Elizabeth I has often been portrayed in films and series – including by the great Judi Dench in “Shakespeare in Love” from 1998. Cate Blanchett played the Tudor Queen twice: in “Elizabeth: The Golden Age” from 2007 and “Elizabeth” from 1998.
With Alicia von Rittberg, a real noblewoman joins the already long list of Elizabeth actresses: The full name of the German leading actress of “Becoming Elizabeth” is Alicia Helena Valerie Countess von Rittberg.
