Taking on the part of the Hobart local, whose journey has captivated the nation’s imaginations, is Melbourne actress Emma Hamilton, from The Tudors and The Cold Light of Day.
Playing opposite her as the handsome Crown Prince Frederik, who stole Mary’s heart after a fateful meeting during the 2000 Sydney Olympics, is Ryan O’Kane.
Known for portraying Rhys Levitt on the show City Homicide, New Zealand-born Ryan and his co-star Emma will begin filming the Channel 10 telemovie later this month. It’s believed the highly-anticipated series will air towards the end of 2015.
