What's left behind the scenes
- The film is based on Philippa Gregory’s novel "The Other Boleyn Girl" (2001), which in turn is based on real historical events.
- Filming began in October 2006.
- A number of leading literary and television critics in Britain spoke out against the adaptation of "The Other Boleyn Girl" due to the casting of American actresses (Johansson, Portman) in the leading roles.
- As is well known, the three-year marriage of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn ended tragically. Henry accused his wife of adultery and ordered her execution. However, his sister's death gave Mary no chances, as the monarch was already captivated by the young Jane Seymour. The daughter of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn went down in history as Elizabeth I and became one of the most revered monarchs of Great Britain.
- Henry VIII was married six times – Anne Boleyn was his second wife.
- In August 2007, several days of reshoots with the main actors of the film took place in England; in particular, the scene of Anne Boleyn and the king’s wedding was reshot. The reshoots, according to rumors, were a forced move, as the studio considered the first version of the film too short.
- Despite a more or less accurate depiction of events, the film contains a number of historical inaccuracies: Henry VIII, judging by portraits, bore very little resemblance to Eric Bana; Anne Boleyn spent significantly more time at court before her marriage than shown in the film; more than four years passed between Henry's first attempt to divorce Catherine of Aragon and the actual divorce; Anne Boleyn was accused of sexual relations not only with her own brother, but also with two of her friends; unlike the events depicted in the film, there was likely no real basis for the accusations at all; Anne Boleyn’s sister either never raised Elizabeth at all, or raised her for a very short period of time – Elizabeth later lived at court with her father and stepmother.
- The film is based on Philippa Gregory's novel "The Other Boleyn Girl" (2001), which in turn is based on real historical events.
