Taking over a country is a complicated game.
On Tuesday, the trailer debuted for season 2 of “The Great”, starring Elle Fanning as Russia’s Catherine the Great.
The second season of the comedic historical drama finds Catherine at her coronation, choosing the title “The Great” and then setting out to, in her words, “remake Russia.”
But things get trickier for Catherine when her mother, played by Gillian Anderson, shows up to offer a little too much advice on her daughter’s coup against husband Peter, played by Nicholas Hoult.

The series also stars Phoebe Fox, Adam Godley, Gwilym Lee, Charity Wakefield, Douglas Hodge, Sacha Dhawan, Bayo Gbadamosi, and Belinda Bromilow.
“The Great” premieres Nov. 19.
