Atlantic Crossing on MASTERPIECE on PBS (original) (raw)

About the Show

A European princess steals the heart of the U.S. president in an epic drama inspired by the real World War II relationship between Franklin Roosevelt and Norwegian Crown Princess Martha. Kyle MacLachlan (Twin Peaks, Sex and the City) stars as Roosevelt, opposite Swedish actor Sofia Helin (The Bridge) as the beautiful Martha, who flees the Nazis with her three young children and lives under Roosevelt’s protection in America. “It’s that combination of royal history and political drama that really scratches the same itch as The Crown,” says Town & Country Magazine.

The eight-part miniseries also stars Tobias Santelmann (Kon Tiki) as Crown Prince Olav and Harriet Sansom Harris (Desperate Housewives) as First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt.
