The first episode was shown on BBC One on 19 January 2014.It stars Tom Burke as Athos, Santiago Cabrera as Aramis, Howard Charles as Porthos, Luke Pasqualino as D'Artagnan, Tamla Kari as Constance Bonacieux, Maimie McCoy as Milady de Winter, Ryan Gage as Louis XIII and Alexandra Dowling as Queen Anne. It also features Peter Capaldi as Cardinal Richelieu in Series One, Marc Warren as Comte de Rochefort in Series Two, and Rupert Everett as the Marquis de Feron in Series Three.
Jessica Pope and Adrian Hodges produced the show for the BBC. The program was largely filmed in the Czech Republic. In February 2015, it was announced that the show had been renewed for a third series,[4] which was announced in April 2016 to be the last. The third series premiered in multiple countries first, before premiering in the UK on 28 May 2016, and concluding on 1 August 2016.
I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO THE 2014 VERSION, BUT I FELT DISAPPOINTED (AT FIRST)...
TOOK A WHILE TO ADJUST TO THE CHARACTERS, I SUPPOSE...
PORTHOS IS SUPPOSE TO BE HUGE, AND IN THIS VERSION HE IS SOME WHAT DIFFERENT, NO..NOT HIS RACE, HIS ACTUAL SIZE..
I THINK BY THE 3RD OR 4TH EPISODE I STARTED TO ENJOY IT...THEME AND BACKGROUND SCORE ITS TOP (Y)
I SUPPOSE, YOU NEED TO WATCH THIS CURRENT VERSION WITHOUT ANY EXPECTATIONS, TO "REALLY GET INTO IT" :| OVERALL, ITS DONE QUITE WELL AND IT DOES LEAVE YOU IMPRESSED!
