Some fairy tales end with a royal wedding. The second season of “Maxima” – about the queen of Maxima Maxima in the Netherlands – will start with one.
These moments are still in our collective memory. Producer Rachel Van Bommel admitted, “We have all seen on TV.” In the first season, we used archive shots. We’ll do it again, especially for wedding scenes. ”
The offer, which was produced by Millstreet Films and sold by Beta Film, confirmed the second time. diverse During a specific visit in The Hague. Beta raises a first look before showing its shows in London on February 25.
“It is much larger because we are in palaces, in the large UN buildings. Then there is life and death: children are born, funerals occur. We still have this royal couple really attractive and we will keep a light tone, but there is a drama in their lives.”
Often compared to the “crown”, “Maxima” always puts the Argentine protagonist first.
“I love the” crown “, but it takes a look at all family members. Van Bommel said:
Maxima, who participates with Prince William Alexander, is participating to start looking at things from a “more responsibility and more similar perspective with a queen.”
In the first episode, you think: “Well, I will marry. I can choose your own dress. But suddenly, there are 20 people who decide their shape. [This show] It revolves around the family and from making sacrifices. In the second season, you see Queen Beatrix give up a lot. This is what Maxima learned. Being a queen is not just a job. Never stop. ”
I noticed the main actor Defina Chaves a change in Maxima.
“It is welcomed at the royal house. But what are its expectations for what it means as an institution? It is a realistic examination.”
With Season 2, directed by Saskia and death and Oujok Doc, covering more than 10 years in her life, “Maxima will lose a specific part of herself and must generate a new version of itself.”
“We imagine real people, but it was very important to make these characters feel life. Chavez said:” We have never lost it. ”
“You have all these YouTube videos of being author and followed by the protocol. But in this show, we also see Maxima when it is not monitored.”
While the first season focused on leaving Maxima to leave her family – “she had to break this strong bond with her father” – now, the focus will turn into members of the Dutch royal family.
“He is crazy, they had to go through. We get a lot of new characters and stories. Chavez noted,” It adds a lot to the show, “her star co -star Martin Lacire adds:” There are many of these great events in life, but they are dealing with With her together and she is really strong as a team. However, it mainly relates to Maxima. It finds a way to balance everything, from motherhood to trying to change and perform an important work. It is an intense and full role to fulfill.
He said: “In terms of the story, it is very universal. It is a love story between two people, in an attempt to ensure that it works despite all the obstacles on the road.”
Since the real offer of the presentation is still in power, “You want to stay close to the facts,” note Van Bommel.
“If you look at the actual king and queen, what really links them is their humor. I think the response is [to the series] It was good and in fact a insight into their humanity. I think it can be useful for the royal family. I hope so, “Chavez said.
“We were hoping to travel” Maxima “. It is great to see a local story that is adopted like this.”
