Can you tease night 1 and talk about what to expect for your character and for the series? I’ve seen all six hours, but I don’t want to give too much away.

TV GOODNESS: I liked the ups and downs of Ankhe and everything she had to deal with. I’m very privileged and very lucky to get the opportunity. I’m sure a lot of women would have loved to have done it. She’s the primary driving force behind it all. It’s not spoiling it to tell you dies, but she goes on to outlive everybody. And she’s strong and she’s a survivor, she’s a warrior. Sibylla: “What we wouldn’t even live in a lifetime, she’s endured. So, when I read the screenplay, I was like, ‘Oh, my God. I didn’t know so much about or her relationship with her brother. I knew about Tutankhamun, I knew about Nefertiti and things like that. Sibylla Dean: “I knew of ancient Egypt and I loved it when I was a kid at school. How much, if anything, did you know about the history of King Tut or your character before you took the role? TV GOODNESS: I really enjoyed your performance in this mini-series.
We discussed her character’s motivations, what viewers can expect the first night of the series, what it was like to work with Avan Jogia and Ben Kingsley and more. I had the chance to speak exclusively to Sibylla Deen, who plays Tut’s half-sister and Queen Ankhe. But through unexpected twists and turns, Tut strives to overcome the odds, rising from a manipulated ruler into an unlikely hero who triumphs over his enemies, both from within and without, leading his kingdom to glory. And although Tut rules as Pharoah, he is exploited by a shrewd Grand Vizier, a ruthless military General and a scheming High Priest who look down on him as someone they can control.
In love with a commoner, he struggles to protect her from the jealous queen. Thrust into power after the murder of his father, Tut is forced to marry his strong-willed, ambitious sister in order to maintain the dynasty. But is that true? And what was going on behind the scenes? What were his personal relationships like? When King Tut’s tomb was discovered in 1922, it caused a worldwide media sensation and we’ve been fascinated ever since. The area flourished after he came to power, so we assume he was loved and supported by his people. But there’s so much about his life we’ll never know. We know he restored the god Amun to supremacy and that he sought to repair relationships with the surrounding kingdoms. What do we really know about Tutankhamun? As a Pharoah who ruled Egypt during the 18th dynasty, we assume he had very powerful advisers because he ascended to the throne at such a young age.
