While we don't know a ton about what the series will hold, we do have a little bit of information. According to Variety, the series "is set around the globe" and "features eight separate stories about people in contemporary times who believe themselves to be descendants of the Russian royal family that ruled Russia from 1613 until the Bolsheviks seized power in 1917." Translation: the $50 million series will be a weekly anthology.
Reports also state The Romanoffs was shot on location in three continents and seven countries, collaborating with local productions and creative talent across Europe, the Americas, and the Far East. Each story takes place in a new location with a new cast. No wonder there are so many star players in the fold!
