Overview

• The film focuses on Henry VIII's sixth and final wife Katherine Parr.
• Law endured a complete physical transformation to play the ailing king, including altered hairline and added weight.
• The awful scent Law wore, made of "blood, fecal matter and sweat," added to the realism and difficulty of filming.
• Firebrand aims to reframe history by putting progressive, intellectual Katherine Parr at the center of the story.
